Snap a photo, set the corners, get a scan-quality PDF
Everything a scanner app does, in your browser. Take a photo of the page, drag the four corners onto the edges of the document, and the tool straightens the perspective for you. The magic colour filter makes the page clean and white with dark, sharp text — just like a real scanner. Add page after page and download the whole thing as one PDF.
Photograph a page and you get a picture of a page: taken at a slight angle, with the shadow of your own hand across it and a grey cast where the paper should be white. Offices reject these, and they are three or four times larger than they need to be.
Scanning fixes the geometry and the colour. The page is squared up so the edges are parallel, the paper is pushed to white, and the text is pushed to black. The result looks like it came off a flatbed scanner, and the file is a fraction of the size.
| Mode | Best for |
|---|---|
| Colour | Aadhaar and PAN cards, certificates with seals, photographs, anything where the colour carries information |
| Greyscale | Pages that mix text and photos, older documents with yellowed paper |
| Black & white | Plain printed text, handwritten notes, signatures. Gives the smallest file by far |
Black & white can be harsh on a faint photocopy — if letters start dropping out, switch to greyscale.
Scans of several pages usually want to become one file: Merge PDF joins them. If a portal has an upload limit, Compress PDF brings the size down. And if you want to copy the words out of the scan rather than just look at them, Image to Text reads them.
It does the same job — perspective correction, magic colour, black & white filter and multi-page PDF. The difference is that there is no app to install and your photo never leaves your device.
Magic colour for a coloured page or a bill. Black & white for plain text notes — it also gives the smallest file.
As many as you like. Each page shows as a preview and you can remove any of them with ✕.
No. The whole scan is processed by your browser on your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, which is the reason this tool exists rather than one of the scanner apps that upload everything.
No. It runs on the web page in your phone or computer browser.
As many as you need. Very long documents simply take longer, because the work is done by your own device.
That usually means the page did not contrast with the surface underneath. Move it onto a darker table and take the photo again.
Yes, though the curve near the spine will stay curved. Press the page as flat as you can. If you photographed two pages at once, Split Pages in Half will separate them.
Yes for the vast majority of portals. Use colour mode for identity documents, since some offices insist on seeing the colour of a seal or signature.
