## What is Surfile?

Surfile helps you find photos and files by searching the words inside them. Scan your gallery on your device, add PDF or Excel files, then type a word like "date", "address", "invoice", or "code" to quickly find what you need.

Your photos and files stay on your device. Surfile processes everything locally and stores the searchable index in local app storage. Nothing is uploaded to a Surfile server.

What you can do:
• Search text found inside gallery photos
• Search inside PDF, Excel, and text files saved on your device
• Read text in many languages, including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Hindi — set up automatically for your device
• Browse matching photos in a clean grid
• Filter by date, text, and favorites
• Open, share, favorite, or delete photos and files
• Continue scanning later if you stop midway
• Use Turkish and English interface options

Surfile is useful for finding screenshots, notes, invoices, contracts, receipts, labels, forms, signs, and other photos or documents that contain readable text.

The app includes a free trial. After the trial, search remains available, and Pro unlocks tools such as opening, sharing, and favoriting results.

No ads. No tracking. No account required.
