Safe Scanner PDF Scanner, OCR

Safe Scanner turns your phone camera into a fast document scanner. Point it at a page, and Safe Scanner finds the edges, straightens the page, cleans it up and saves it as a sharp PDF you can search, share or print. Scanning, cleanup and text recognition all happen on your phone.

SCAN ANYTHING
• Documents, receipts, letters, contracts and notes
• ID cards: front and back on one page, at true card size
• Books: one photo of an open book becomes two pages
• Business cards and whiteboards
• Import photos you already have from your gallery

QR CODES AND BARCODES
• Scan QR codes and barcodes with the camera or from a photo
• Websites, Wi-Fi, contacts, phone numbers, email, events, locations, UPI payments and products
• Safety check before opening a link: shows the real website and warns about unsafe or hidden links
• Join a Wi-Fi network, save a contact or add an event in one tap
• Scan history kept only on your phone

SMART EDGE DETECTION
• Live outline shows the page before you shoot
• Auto-capture takes the photo when the page is steady (choose fast, normal or slow)
• Works on wood, fabric, patterned mats and white desks
• If detection isn't sure, Safe Scanner asks you to check the edges, and only then
• Drag the corners with a magnifier, or resize the crop of the finished page

CLEAN, READABLE PAGES
• 8 filters: Auto color, Light color, Vivid color, Light text, Grayscale, Black & white, Whiteboard and Original
• Shadows and uneven lighting removed, photos and stamps kept natural
• Brightness and contrast, rotate, reorder, retake, apply to all pages

TEXT RECOGNITION (OCR)
• Recognizes the text on every page, on your phone
• Search all your scans by the words inside them
• Find words inside a document, with highlights
• Copy or share the text of any page

PDF YOUR WAY
• Searchable PDFs with an invisible text layer
• A4, US Letter or fit to image, three quality levels
• Password-protected PDFs with AES-256 encryption
• Save pages as JPEG images, print, or share to any app

ORGANIZE
• Rename, merge, delete and reorder pages
• Grid or list view, sort by date or name
• Material You design with light and dark themes

PRIVACY AND SECURITY
• Scans are processed and stored on your phone, in the app's private storage
• No account needed to scan
• App lock with fingerprint, face or device PIN
• Screenshot blocking keeps your scans out of the recent-apps view

OPTIONAL GOOGLE DRIVE BACKUP
• Sign in with Google to back up scans to your own Google Drive
• Safe Scanner can only see the files it creates there
• Restore your scans on a new phone, or delete the backup any time

Safe Scanner is free and supported by ads. Ads are never shown while you scan or edit, and they never see your documents.
