Zoho Scanner is a document scanner that turns paper into searchable PDFs, then reads them back to you. Scan a page and the app can summarise it, pull out the key details, and answer questions about it — on your device. WHO IT'S FOR Built for people who deal with paper they need to keep: students scanning notes and exam papers, small business owners filing receipts and invoices, admin teams capturing business cards and contracts, and anyone who needs a clean copy of an ID or official document. A good fit if you already keep documents in a cloud drive. WHAT PEOPLE USE IT FOR • Scan ID cards, passports, and official documents to keep a clear copy on hand • Scan receipts, bills, and invoices so expenses get filed as they happen, not at month end • Ask a scanned contract or invoice what it says, and get a summary instead of reading it • Sign contracts and forms and email them back without printing anything • Scan business cards so contact details are saved instead of lost HOW IT WORKS Scan — Point your iPhone or iPad camera at a page and Zoho Scanner finds the document's edges, so you get a straight, cropped scan instead of a photo of a page. Handles multi-page documents and imports from your photo library. Crop, edit, rotate, reorder pages, filter and annotate, then share as a PDF or an image. Read and ask — Text Recognition pulls the words out of a scan. The app also summarises a document, pulls out the details that matter, and answers questions about it, all on your device. It recognises document types on its own, so receipts, invoices and business cards are sorted without being told. Translate — Turn a scanned document into any of 17 languages, then send it as a file or paste it in a message. E-sign — Add your signature, initials, name, and the date to a scan, powered by Zoho Sign, so you don't need a printer and a scanner to return a form. Organize — Folders, reminders and tags keep documents findable. Zia Lens sorts scans and alerts you when new documents appear in your photos. Share and automate — Send scans by email or iMessage, or upload to Zoho WorkDrive, Zoho Expense, Zoho Notebook, Photos, or your own cloud drive. Build a workflow once and its actions run in the order you set, so filing a receipt is one tap instead of five. COMMON QUESTIONS Can I search inside my scans? Yes. Text Recognition reads every scan, so you can find a document by a word inside it. Can I edit the text after scanning? Yes. Extract the text, edit it, and share it as a file by email or message. Can I sign a document and send it back? Yes. Add your signature and date with Zoho Sign, then email it without printing. Can I translate a scanned document? Yes, into 17 languages, and you can send the result as a file or paste it in a message. Can it summarise a long document? Yes. Scan it, then ask for a summary or ask a question about it. This runs on your device. ON iPHONE, iPAD AND MAC • One app across iPhone, iPad and Mac, with iCloud Drive backup and restore • Ask Siri to find a scan by voice, or lift contacts off a business card • Search receipts, invoices and cards from Spotlight without opening the app • Recent scans and pending invoices on your Home Screen • Lock with Face ID or Touch ID; scan and share from iMessage • Voice Control, Dynamic Text and Dark Mode PRIVACY AND TRUST Zoho Scanner is built by Zoho Corporation, certified to ISO/IEC 27001, ISO 27017, and ISO 27018 and SOC 2 Type II compliant.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Orb Streaks at 5.0 against Zoho Scanner's 4.4. Orb Streaks also leads on review sentiment (100% vs 79%). Zoho Scanner's advantage is ratings volume (89 vs 5) and iOS requirement (16.6 vs 18.6). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Zoho Scanner sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and Orb Streaks sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Orb Streaks holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.4. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Zoho Scanner has 89 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 79% of Zoho Scanner's written reviews are positive against 100% of Orb Streaks's.
Zoho Scanner ships an update fortnightly, Orb Streaks every 11 days. The most recent releases landed on November 13, 2026 and November 5, 2026 respectively.
