Read full description

Organizer turns your iPhone camera into a private filing cabinet. Point it at a receipt, letter, invoice, or business card. Organizer scans it, reads the text with on-device OCR, and - on supported iPhones - uses Apple Intelligence to name the document, pick its type, extract the details, and write a one-line summary. No account. No cloud. Nothing ever leaves your phone. WHY YOU'LL KEEP USING IT - Searchable PDFs: every scan becomes a compact PDF you can search, select, and copy text from - Smart types: receipts, invoices, letters, business cards, IDs, medical, tax and more, each with its own extracted fields; add your own types too - Receipts that read themselves: merchant, total, tax, payment method, order number, and every line item - Business cards become contacts: call, email, or map straight from the card - Favorites: star what matters and filter to it instantly - Full-text search: find documents by their content, not just their name - Multi-select sharing, notes, tags, and file-size tracking - Face ID lock: keep your documents behind biometrics - Scan from anywhere: Home Screen quick action, Siri, Spotlight, or a Control Center shortcut PRIVATE BY DESIGN All OCR and AI analysis run entirely on your device.
