Vos papiers importants, enfin retrouvables en trois secondes. SmartScanner scanne vos documents, les nomme, les classe et vous prévient avant qu'ils n'expirent. Sans dossier à créer, sans nom à taper. SCANNER, ET C'EST TOUT Prenez un papier en photo. L'app détecte les bords, redresse la page et enchaîne les pages d'un même document. Le résultat est net, lisible, prêt à être envoyé. ILS SE NOMMENT TOUT SEULS « Facture EDF février 2026 » plutôt que « IMG_4821 ». L'IA lit le document, comprend ce que c'est, et lui donne un nom que vous comprendrez dans six mois. ILS SE RANGENT TOUT SEULS Identité, logement, santé, véhicule, travail : chaque papier rejoint le bon intercalaire sans que vous ayez rien à décider. Et vous gardez la main : tout reste modifiable, renommable, déplaçable. VOUS ÊTES PRÉVENU À TEMPS Carte d'identité, passeport, contrôle technique, assurance : l'app repère les dates d'échéance et vous alerte avant qu'il ne soit trop tard. Un justificatif de domicile vous prévient quand il dépasse trois mois, parce que l'administration le refusera. RETROUVEZ N'IMPORTE QUEL PAPIER La recherche ne se contente pas des noms : elle lit le texte À L'INTÉRIEUR de vos documents. Un montant, une référence, le nom d'un assureur, et le papier ressort. POSEZ VOS QUESTIONS « Quand expire ma carte d'identité ? », « Combien j'ai payé ma facture d'août ? » L'assistant lit vos documents et répond. Il peut aussi ranger, renommer et créer des intercalaires à votre place. VOS DOCUMENTS RESTENT CHEZ VOUS Tout est stocké sur votre iPhone. Pas de compte à créer, pas de cloud, pas de mot de passe. Vos papiers ne partent nulle part, et vous pouvez protéger vos intercalaires les plus sensibles par Face ID. CE QUI EST GRATUIT, POUR TOUJOURS Scanner, importer, ranger à la main, rechercher, créer des intercalaires, sauvegarder : sans limite de nombre de documents, sans publicité. CE QUE PREMIUM AJOUTE Le nommage et le classement automatiques, les résumés, l'assistant, la détection des dates d'échéance. 7 jours d'essai gratuit, puis 4,99 € par mois ou 44,99 € par an. Résiliable à tout moment depuis les réglages de votre compte. Une sauvegarde complète peut être exportée à tout moment dans Fichiers ou iCloud, pour ne jamais rien perdre en changeant de téléphone. ABONNEMENTS Premium mensuel : 1 mois, 4,99 €. Premium annuel : 1 an, 44,99 €. L'abonnement se renouvelle automatiquement sauf résiliation au moins 24 heures avant la fin de la période en cours.
