PDF Scanner turns your iPhone into a powerful document scanner. Capture receipts, contracts, notes, whiteboards, and any paper document in seconds โ€” then export a clean, shareable PDF. Scan anything in your environment with the built-in camera. Multi-page documents are supported: scan as many pages as you need in a single session and they are assembled into one organized PDF automatically. On-device OCR (powered by Apple's Vision framework) extracts the text from every page so you can search your entire document library by content, not just by filename. Your text never leaves your device. Fine-tune the look of each page with four image filters: Original for an exact copy, Black & White for crisp text-heavy documents, Enhance for a contrast and sharpness boost, and Sharpen for maximum edge clarity. Organize your growing library with folders and instant full-text search. Rename documents, reorder or delete individual pages, and keep everything sorted by date or name. When you're ready to share, preview the finished PDF in-app, then send it via Mail, Messages, AirDrop, or any app on your phone. No account required, no cloud upload โ€” everything stays private on your device. Key features: - Multi-page scanning with real-time progress - On-device OCR with full-text search across all documents - Four page filters: Original, B&W, Enhance, Sharpen - Drag-to-reorder and delete individual pages - Folder organization for your document library - PDF preview before sharing - Share via any iOS share sheet target - No sign-in, no subscription, no cloud required
