【Quick Scan】One-Tap Quick Scan is a professional-grade document scanner that combines local OCR intelligence, precise edge detection, and fully on-device processing to help you digitize documents quickly and privately. **Smart Document Scanning** Capture documents using your device's camera with automatic edge detection. The app identifies document boundaries and applies perspective correction to produce clean, rectangular scans. **On-Device OCR** Extract text from scanned documents using built-in optical character recognition. All text recognition runs locally on your device — no data is sent to external servers. **100% On-Device Processing** Every step of the scanning and recognition pipeline operates entirely on your device. Your documents and extracted text never leave your phone, ensuring maximum privacy and data security. **Batch Scanning & Organization** Scan multiple pages into a single document and organize your files with ease. Export scans as PDF or image files for sharing, printing, or archiving. **Image Enhancement** Adjust brightness, contrast, and apply filters to improve scan readability. Convert color scans to grayscale or black-and-white for clearer text and smaller file sizes. One-Tap Quick Scan provides a straightforward, privacy-focused scanning workflow — from capture to export — without relying on cloud services or internet connectivity.
