About

PDF Document Scanner

Features
Read full description

Scan it, file it, send it. Paper in front of you becomes a clean, straight PDF in your own iCloud in seconds — no account, no ads, no subscription, and nothing collected about you. SCAN, OR BRING PHOTOS YOU ALREADY HAVE Point the camera at any paper — letters, contracts, receipts, handwritten notes. Pages are straightened and cleaned up automatically, in color, grayscale or crisp black & white. Already photographed it? Import JPG, HEIC or PNG from your photo library, or an existing PDF. Imported photos are straightened automatically, and you can crop any page by hand when a photo needs it. YOURS, IN YOUR ICLOUD Every scan is a normal PDF in your own iCloud Drive — in the Files app, on your other devices, and still yours if you ever delete the app. Pageora has no server. FIND ANYTHING Every PDF is searchable. Search finds words inside your documents, not just titles — including from your iPhone's Home Screen. Where Apple Intelligence is available, scans name and tag themselves on your device, and you can browse your library by tag. REDACTION THAT MEANS IT Draw a box over anything sensitive and the text underneath is deleted from the PDF, not covered. Copy, extraction and search find nothing — because nothing is there. EDIT PAGES, SEND IT HOW YOU LIKE Crop, rotate, reorder, retake or delete a page. Export at the size you need, and password-protect a PDF before you send it. PAGEORA UNLIMITED, IF YOU WANT MORE Your scans tag themselves — rules sort every new scan by what it is, and you can find duplicates and back up the whole library. Due dates Pageora spots go straight to Calendar. Receipts become spreadsheets — where Apple Intelligence is available, Pageora reads the shop, date and total off the page, ready for your accountant. Tables, text, archive PDF/A and email-sized PDFs too. Finish documents here — sign and date, merge and split, black out a word everywhere at once, and keep private pages behind Face ID. ONE PAYMENT, OR NONE The free app is the full scanner for up to 25 documents — full quality, no watermarks, no ads. Pageora Unlimited removes the limit and turns everything above on, for a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. Privacy: Pageora collects no data — no analytics, no tracking, no account. The App Store privacy label says "Data Not Collected" because that is the truth.
