Quick summary
Document Scanner App with OCR is a free, user-friendly iPhone app that turns paper into digital files. It captures documents, photos, and business cards and converts them into high-quality PDFs. Built-in OCR (optical character recognition) lets you pull text from images so your scans become searchable and editable.
What the app can do
- Open and modify existing PDF documents directly in the app
- Find files by filename or by words extracted from images with OCR
- Quickly rename, sort, and manage your scan collection
- Use smart edge detection for crisp, well-cropped scans
- Add notes, shapes, and highlights to pages for quick markup
- Share scans through email, cloud drives, or social networks
- Export captures as high-resolution PDF files
- Turn images into selectable, searchable text using OCR
- Capture documents, photos, or business cards with one tap
Sharing, organization and editing
The app makes it simple to distribute and organize your files. Share PDFs to mail clients, upload to cloud storage, or post to social platforms. Edit the order of pages, change filenames, and import PDFs to refine them further. Search across your library using either the document title or text found by OCR.
Language and additional tools
Beyond scanning, the app provides translation for recognized text. Translate OCR results into more than 100 languages, making it easier to work with documents in other tongues. Annotation tools (text, shapes, highlights) help you mark up pages before exporting.
Suggested alternative
If you want another free option, consider Paper by WeTransfer, which offers a different set of tools for capture and note-taking.
