Your documents. On your device. Only. Scanly turns your phone into a professional document scanner โ€” with no watermarks, no ads, and no account required. Your documents never leave your device unless you choose to back them up to your own Google Drive. HOW IT WORKS โ€ข Point your camera at any document โ€” ID, contract, invoice, receipt โ€ข Automatic edge detection and perspective correction โ€ข Export as a clean, high-quality PDF โ€” watermark-free โ€ข Sign directly inside the app โ€” no printing needed โ€ข Optionally back up to your own Google Drive (Pro) WHY SCANLY? Unlike other scanner apps, Scanly never uploads your documents to its own servers โ€” it doesn't have any. All scanning, OCR, and PDF processing happens entirely on your device. Your passport, ID, contracts โ€” they stay yours. When you choose to back up, your documents go to your own Google Drive account โ€” not to Scanly. You're always in control, and you can disconnect at any time. FEATURES โ€ข Smart edge detection & perspective correction โ€ข Filters: auto-enhance, black & white, grayscale, original โ€ข OCR text extraction โ€” copy text and search inside your documents โ€ข Digital signature โ€” draw it once, place it on any page. 3 free signings, unlimited with Pro โ€ข Multi-page PDFs with drag-and-drop reorder and rotate โ€ข Password-protect PDFs with real AES-256 encryption (Pro) โ€ข Batch scanning โ€” multiple documents at once โ€ข Import photos and PDFs from your gallery or Files โ€ข Share, print, or save to Files and Photos โ€ข Back up and restore with your own Google Drive (Pro) โ€” never Scanly's servers โ€ข Free up space: keep backed-up documents in Drive only and restore them anytime (Pro) โ€ข Works fully offline โ€” no internet needed to scan, sign, or export โ€ข Available in 20 languages PRIVACY Scanly does not collect, store, or transmit your document content. All processing is performed on-device, and we have no access to your scanned documents. No account is required to use the app. To improve Scanly, the app sends anonymous usage statistics and crash reports โ€” never document content, images, or text. You can turn this off anytime in Settings โ€บ App. SCANLY PRO Pro unlocks unlimited signing, password protection, and backup and restore with your own Google Drive โ€” plus Free up space, which keeps backed-up documents in Drive only. Choose a monthly or yearly subscription (yearly includes a free trial) or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings. PERFECT FOR YOU IF... โ€ข You scan sensitive documents like IDs, passports, or contracts โ€ข You're tired of watermarks and aggressive upsells โ€ข You want your documents private โ€” not on someone else's server โ€ข You need to sign and return documents without a printer Scan your first document. No watermarks. No cloud. No catch. Privacy Policy: https://sites.google.com/view/scanly-pdf-privacy-policy/ana-sayfa Terms of Use: https://sites.google.com/view/scanly-terms/ana-sayfa

Features
Read full description

Count your stock with the phone in your pocket. Point the camera at a barcode and the item is counted. No paperwork, no clipboard, no typing product numbers by hand. Stock Count is built for real stockrooms - warehouses, retail shops, e-commerce fulfilment, workshops, bars and restaurants, events, tool and asset audits. SCAN THE WAY YOU WORK - Quick Scan: every scan adds +1 instantly, ideal for fast shelf counting - Quantity Mode: scan once, then enter the exact amount - Continuous scanning without leaving the camera view - Built-in torch for dark aisles and a clear scan viewfinder - Works with professional Bluetooth scanners (Zebra, Honeywell, Datalogic and other HID devices) EVERY COMMON BARCODE EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, Code 128, Code 39, Code 93, ITF, QR Code, Data Matrix and more. A CATALOG THAT REMEMBERS Name a barcode once and it is recognised in every count that follows. Import an existing catalog from CSV or XLSX, or simply build it as you scan. SEVERAL COUNTS SIDE BY SIDE Keep separate counts for shelves, storerooms, vans or dates. Switch between them any time, rename them, or clear one and start over. Compare two counts to see what changed, what's new and what's missing, lock a finished count so it can't be changed by accident, and add a location and note to counted items. EXPORT IN ONE TAP - XLSX: opens straight in Excel or any spreadsheet app - PDF: a clean, printable count sheet - CSV, JSON and TXT for your own system Send the file by e-mail or message, drop it in cloud storage, or save it to Files. WORKS COMPLETELY OFFLINE No account, no sign-in, no cloud. Your data stays on the device, so a cellar with no signal is not a problem. Back up all data to a file and restore it on a new phone. MADE FOR LONG COUNTING SESSIONS Dark mode, sound and vibration feedback on every scan, a screen that stays awake, quick +/- editing, swipe to delete, and search across all items. Available in 25 languages. PRO The app is free to use. Pro removes all ads and adds stock value with unit prices, expected quantities with differences (import a list or start from a previous stock count) and export of differences - available as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, or as a one-time purchase. Payment is charged to your account at confirmation of purchase. A subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your account settings after purchase. Missing a feature or found something odd? Write to us - we answer.
