The Easiest Way to Scan Documents with the iPhone's Built-in Apps

On an iPhone, the easiest way to scan documents is with the built-in Notes app.

To scan in the Notes app:

1. Open the Notes app.
2. Create a new note or open an existing one.
3. Tap the clip/attachment icon or the Camera icon at the bottom.
4. Select Scan Documents.
5. Point the camera at the document and it will be recognized and captured automatically.
6. If needed, adjust the corners, rotate, or apply filters, then tap Save.

The scanned document is saved as a PDF within the note, and you can use Share to send it to KakaoTalk, Mail, or the Files app.

You can also use the Files app:

• Open the Files app
• Tap ... in the upper right
• Select Scan Documents

Tips:

• Scanning in a well-lit area improves recognition.
• If auto capture is inconvenient, you can also capture manually.
