AI automatically classifies and organizes documents into smart folders, while OCR lets you find anything instantly. Add signatures, annotate, merge or split documents, and export as searchable PDFs via email, AirDrop, or ZIP. iCloud keeps everything in sync. All AI runs on-device — your documents stay private. No ads, no watermarks.

📱 Your iPhone just became a document scanner that actually respects your privacy. The problem we all face: papers pile up → digital chaos → your data lives in the cloud → goodbye privacy. We built Scanner to fix that. Everything happens on-device. Snap → auto-edge detect → AI classifies it (receipt? contract? ID?) → organize into smart folders → searchable PDFs → export privately. No ads. No watermarks. No cloud processing. Your choice, your device, your data. Quick Q for the community: How many of you avoid scanner apps because of cloud privacy concerns? We'd love to hear if this solves it for you. 👇

Privacy-first is compelling, especially for contracts and IDs. Are you targeting individuals or professionals who need compliance-grade document handling?

@justin_press while this could be appealing to some professionals, the goal was to keep it simple and mostly free for individuals. Honestly this was made to solve my own personal pains points with existing scanner software. Too many bells and whistles, too fuss and fluff and no guarantee for security. Your private and personal documents will be kept hostage in some of these apps unless you keep paying. Scanner app is trying to be more a response to that than a source of revenue. iPhone’s Preview app already provides scanner functionality for free but no organization. Think of Scanner app as a modern organization layer on top of that.
