Scanner · Baro

Your documents never leave your phone.

Point your camera, and paper becomes a clean PDF that is never uploaded to anyone. Don't believe it? Turn on airplane mode and watch Scanner keep working — because nothing is ever sent anywhere.

That's the difference from the free scanners: your IDs, contracts, medical forms and receipts stay private, because they physically never leave the device. No watermark on the output. No account to create. No ads. No subscription nag.

WHY BARO BEATS THE FREE SCANNERS
• Nothing uploaded — works fully in airplane mode, verify it yourself.
• No watermark stamped on your PDF. Ever.
• No account, no sign-in, no email harvesting.
• No ads, no subscription, no surprise paywall.

WHAT IT DOES
• Scan anything — live edge detection and perspective correction capture a crisp, straightened page: receipts, contracts, IDs, notes, forms, mail.
• Multi-page PDFs — add as many pages as you need and save them as one clean PDF. Reorder, retake or remove a page with a single tap.
• Color, Grayscale or Black & White — pick the look that makes text sharpest and keeps files small.
• Local library — every scan lives only on this phone. Open, rename, share or delete. No cloud, no sync.
• Share anywhere — send your PDF to Mail, Messages, Notes or any app in one tap.

PRIVACY YOU CAN VERIFY
Zero analytics. Zero telemetry. Zero third-party SDKs. No network code at all. Turn on airplane mode and scan — everything still works, because nothing is ever sent anywhere. The privacy label says "Data Not Collected," and you can prove it.

HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS
Scanner makes sharp image PDFs. It does not add a searchable OCR text layer yet, and there is no cloud backup or sync — both are intentionally absent, not coming "for a fee." We'd rather promise less and keep every promise.

MADE TO BE EASY
Every button is large and easy to hit. High-contrast AMOLED dark screen. Big, bold text. No double-taps, no hidden gestures — just Scan and Library.

MADE FOR
Anyone scanning an ID, a signed contract or a medical form who refuses to upload it. Receipts and expense reports. Student notes and handouts. Anyone who values privacy, simplicity and no watermarks.

NO STRINGS ATTACHED
No subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no ads, no account. That's the whole deal.
