DocLensr turns your iPhone into a private document scanner. Capture pages, clean them up, hide what shouldn't be shared and send a tidy PDF β€” without creating an account or uploading anything to the cloud. SCAN IN SECONDS The camera detects the edges of the page as you frame it. Snap the photo, then fine-tune the crop by dragging the four corners. ONE DOCUMENT, MANY PAGES Keep scanning as many pages as you need, add forgotten ones later and drag to reorder them before you save. CLEAN, READABLE PAGES Pick Original, Grayscale, Contrast+ or Black & White for each page, and rotate pages that were shot sideways. HIDE WHAT'S PRIVATE Cover ID numbers, addresses, IBANs or phone numbers with black boxes before you share. Pinch to zoom for precise placement. Redaction is permanent β€” the boxes are applied to the image itself. SHARE AS PDF Export a clean PDF and send it anywhere through the iOS share sheet β€” Mail, Messages, Files, AirDrop and more. FIND IT AGAIN Name your documents, add tags and search your library by title or tag. Unfinished scans are kept as a draft, so you can pick up where you left off. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No ads.
