EVERYTHING INCLUDED, UNLIMITED ⢠Scan with automatic edge detection and perspective correction ⢠Import photos from your library ⢠Manual 4-corner crop with magnifier, and rotation ⢠Enhancement modes with live preview: color, grayscale, black & white ⢠Multi-page documents: reorder, delete, add pages anytime ⢠On-device OCR (English + French): your PDFs are searchable and their text can be copied ⢠Smart name suggestions based on the document's content ⢠Organize with folders, search, sort, grid or list view ⢠Share, print, export as JPEG, or protect a PDF with a password ⢠Lock the app with Face ID ⢠Scan straight from Siri or Spotlight PRIVATE BY DESIGN Scanling makes no network connections.
