Features
The essentials are free, for good: unlimited scans, multi-page PDFs, no watermarks. Pro adds everything that reads and understands text.
Automatic edge detection and perspective correction, for a single page or a whole stack. Free and without limits.
Auto, Colour, Greyscale, B&W and Bright filters. Crop, rotate, adjust brightness and clean up shadows.
Text recognition on your device turns scans into searchable PDFs, and full-text search finds any document by what it says.
Merge, split, reorder and compress PDFs for free. Protect sensitive files with a password in Pro.
Sign documents for free. True redaction in Pro removes the text under the black bar instead of just covering it.
Both sides of an ID card on one page, a passport mode and a QR code scanner. All free.
Turn on iCloud Drive and your documents are plain PDFs in your own folder there. Open them anywhere, or export everything at once.
Smart file names and short summaries, created on your device with Apple Intelligence (on supported devices).
How it works
Hold your iPhone over the page. Scanlane finds the edges and captures it, page after page.
Perspective, crop and filter are set for you. With Pro, the text becomes searchable too.
Save as PDF or image, sign and send it anywhere, or simply keep it in your iCloud Drive.
