how to scan documents on iphone

You can easily scan documents on your iPhone using the built-in Notes app or a free scanner app. Here's how to do it using the native iPhone scanner in the Notes app:

1. Open the Notes app and start a new note or open an existing one.
2. Tap the Camera icon, then select "Scan Documents."
3. Position your document so it appears fully on the screen. The iPhone will automatically scan the document. You can tap the shutter button or a volume button to manually capture the scan if needed.
4. Adjust the corners to fit the page, then tap "Keep Scan." You can continue scanning additional pages if needed.
5. When finished, tap "Save." The scanned document is saved as a PDF within the note.
6. You can then share, email, print, or organize the scanned document as needed.

For better results, make sure your document is flat and well-lit when scanning. You can also edit the scan afterward to crop or adjust the image as needed. Alternatively, you can use free scanner apps like Adobe Scan, which automatically detect document edges and let you save scans as PDFs with additional editing features. This method is simple, quick, and does not require any third-party apps for basic document scanning on your iPhone.
