Private Scanner: PDF & OCR

Turn paper into clean, sharp PDFs in seconds, right on your phone. Private Scanner keeps every page on your device: no account, no cloud, no watermark, ever.

WHY PEOPLE SWITCH
✓ Private by design. The app has no internet permission. Your scans never leave your phone unless you share or save them.
✓ No watermark. Not on the free plan, not on any page.
✓ Fair price. A useful free version forever, a yearly plan with a 7-day free trial, or a one-time lifetime unlock.

SCAN IN SECONDS
✓ Edges are found automatically, pages are flattened and cleaned
✓ Scan up to 50 pages into one document
✓ Quick modes for documents, receipts, ID cards (both sides on one page), books and whiteboards
✓ Import photos or PDFs you already have, without giving access to your whole gallery

FIX PAGES BEFORE YOU SAVE
✓ Reorder, rotate, delete or retake any page
✓ Colour modes: Original, Clean, Greyscale and Black & white
✓ Save as PDF or JPEG, in A4, Letter or automatic page size

EVERYTHING NEATLY FILED
✓ Folders and tags, in a grid or a list
✓ Sort by date, name or size
✓ Share, merge, move or delete several documents at once, with Undo
✓ A page viewer with pinch to zoom

FIND ANY WORD
✓ Text recognition (OCR) runs on your phone
✓ Search inside every page of every document, with highlighted results
✓ Filter by folder, document type and date

SHARE, PRINT OR PROTECT
✓ Share to any app, save to Google Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive or a USB stick
✓ Print directly from the app
✓ Password-protect a PDF with AES-256 encryption
✓ Compress a PDF to a target size, for upload portals that say "under 1 MB"

YOUR SCANS STAY YOURS
No account. No cloud. No ads. No analytics. Scanning and text reading are done on your phone by Google's ML Kit, through Google Play services. We never see your documents, and we can't: the app cannot connect to the internet.

SUBSCRIPTION TERMS
Premium is available as a yearly subscription or as a one-time lifetime purchase. The yearly plan starts with a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers, then renews automatically at the yearly price shown in Google Play. Cancel anytime in Google Play under Payments & subscriptions; cancel during the trial and you won't be charged. The lifetime unlock is a single payment, with no renewals.
