Position Your Document
Hold your iPhone over the document you want to scan. Ensure that the document is well-lit and within the viewfinder.
Scan the Document
If your iPhone is set to Auto mode, it will automatically detect the document and capture it. If not, you can manually capture it by pressing the shutter button or one of the volume buttons.
Adjust the Scan
After capturing, you can adjust the corners to fit the document perfectly. Once you’re satisfied, tap “Keep Scan.” You can continue scanning additional pages by repeating this process.
Edit the Document
Once you’ve scanned all your pages, you can edit them. Use the crop tool to adjust the scan, or switch to different color modes like greyscale or black and white. You can also rotate pages as needed.
Save or Share Your Scan
When you’re done editing, tap “Save.” Your scanned document will be saved within the note. To share it, tap on the scanned document, then tap the share icon (a square with an arrow pointing up) to send it via email, messages, or save it to your Files app or cloud storage like Google Drive.
