Docly turns your iPhone into a pocket scanner. Point it at a page and Docly finds the edges, straightens the perspective and cleans the image up, so a photo taken at an angle comes out looking like it went through a real flatbed scanner. Every scan is read on-device with Apple's text recognition and saved as a searchable PDF: you can select, copy and search the text inside your documents, and find them later by typing any word that appears on the page. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Scan with automatic edge detection and auto-capture — a live outline shows exactly what will be captured • Import photos from your library, or bring in existing PDFs and images from Files • Clean up pages with Enhance, Grayscale, Black & White and Lighten filters • Fix any page by hand: drag the four corners, rotate, re-crop • Recognise text in dozens of languages, including handwriting • Export searchable PDFs, JPGs or plain text • Sign documents with your finger, save signatures and reuse them anywhere on the page • Protect an exported PDF with a password • Lock the app, or single documents, behind Face ID • Organise scans into folders, star the important ones and search inside every page • Reorder, rotate and delete pages, merge documents • Scan QR codes and barcodes • Print over AirPrint or share anywhere iOS can reach — Mail, Messages, Files, Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive • Start a scan with Siri or a Shortcut PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scanning, text recognition and PDF generation all happen on your device. Your documents are never uploaded to us or to anyone else, and the app works fully offline. DOCLY PRO Capturing and exporting is free. Docly Pro unlocks text recognition and copyable text, signatures, password-protected PDFs and Face ID locking. Subscription plans: • 1 week with a 3-day free trial • 1 month • 12 months Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SiteMarker at none against Docly's 4. SiteMarker also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Docly's advantage is update cadence (every 11 days vs every 3 months). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
