About

HushScan

Features
Read full description

HushScan is a document scanner with one unusual property: it has no networking code at all. Not networking that is switched off, or behind a setting. None. There is no path from your documents to the internet, so there is nothing to leak. No account. No server. No upload. Nothing to sign up for. EVERYTHING RUNS ON YOUR IPHONE Scan a page and HushScan finds the edges, corrects the angle and flattens creases and shadows. Text is recognised on-device as the page lands, so your whole library is searchable in seconds, handwriting included where it can be read. Apple Intelligence summarises a long contract, translates a foreign form, or answers a question about a document with the answer cited back to the line it came from. All of it on your own Neural Engine. Your text is never sent to us, to Apple, or to anyone else. Put the phone in Airplane Mode and use every feature. Nothing degrades, because nothing was being fetched. REDACTION THAT ACTUALLY HOLDS Card numbers, passport numbers, names and addresses are found for you. One tap covers them, and the pixels are destroyed in the image data itself while the recognised text layer is discarded. Hidden content cannot be recovered by selecting, copying or searching the exported file. It also cannot be undone, so keep the original if you might need it. Automatic detection finds most personal information but is not guaranteed to find all of it. Always review a document before sharing it. A VAULT, NOT A FOLDER Lock HushScan behind Face ID on launch and whenever it goes to the background. Files are stored with iOS file protection, encrypted at rest with your passcode. Delete a document and it is gone from the device. There is no cloud copy to outlive it and no backup of ours to purge. ALSO IN THE BOX - Six scan tones, plus crop, rotate and straighten - Full-text search across every document - Draw a signature once, reuse it anywhere - Export as PDF or images to the standard share sheet - Automatic filing into matching folders as each scan processes - Import from Photos or Files PRICING, PLAINLY Every feature is free. Redaction, on-device AI, document chat, signing, export, Face ID and search all work on the free plan, which includes 10 scans a month permanently and needs no card. Pro lifts the scan cap and changes nothing else: - Annual, $79.99 a year, starting with a 7-day free trial - Monthly, $7.99 a month - Founding Lifetime, $69.99 once, for the first 500 members 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 period. Manage or cancel in Settings, then your name, then Subscriptions. Privacy Policy: https://www.hushscan.com/privacy-policy Terms of Use: https://www.hushscan.com/terms REQUIREMENTS iOS 26.5 or later. Summaries, translation and document chat use Apple's on-device Foundation Models and need an iPhone 15 Pro or later; on other devices those three features are unavailable, because there is no server to fall back to. HushScan is made by ONexceed Ltd.
