PaperFox: PDF Scanner & Tools

PaperFox turns your phone into a pocket scanner and PDF toolbox. Scan paper into clean PDFs, sign and fill forms, shrink files for email and combine documents - all on your device, no account needed.

SCAN ANYTHING TO PDF • Auto edge detection and auto capture, multi-page in one go • Document, ID card (front and back on one A4 page), Book (splits two facing pages) and Photos from gallery • Crop with draggable corners, rotate, reorder, duplicate and delete pages • Filters for paper: Enhanced, Grayscale, Black & White, Whiteboard, plus brightness and contrast • Choose paper size (A4, Letter, Legal, A5 or fit) and quality with a live file-size estimate

SIGN AND EDIT • Draw your signature once, place it on any page • Add text, images or a logo, draw and highlight • Redact: really removes the hidden content, not just a black box • Page numbers and your own watermark

24 PDF TOOLS • Compress PDF - small, balanced, high or "under X MB" for upload forms • Merge, split, extract, delete, reorder and rotate pages • Images to PDF, Word (.docx) to PDF, text to PDF, long screenshot to PDF • Grayscale PDF for cheaper printing • Add or remove a password (AES-256) • Recognise text (OCR): make scans searchable and copy their text • QR and barcode reader, search inside your documents • Your recently and most used tools always float to the top

ORGANISED LIBRARY • Folders with colours, favourites, grid or list • Search by file name and by the words inside your scans • Multi-select to merge, move or delete; trash with 30-day undo • Open and import PDFs shared from other apps, including password-protected ones

SHARE YOUR WAY • Share, save to Downloads/PaperFox or print • Compress, add OCR and a password right before sharing • Exported files list keeps the last 30 days

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Documents stay on your phone - nothing is uploaded • No camera permission needed: scanning uses Google's secure document scanner • Optional app lock with PIN or fingerprint • Home-screen Scan widget and launcher shortcuts

MAKE IT YOURS • Classic or Glass style, colour presets and dark mode • English, Vietnamese, Spanish and Hindi

PaperFox is free and supported by ads. Shared PDFs carry a small "Made with PaperFox" mark in the bottom-right corner; you can remove it from any file by watching a short ad.
