How to Scan Documents, ID Cards and Books Using Your Smartphone

There was a time when you needed a machine to scan your photo, signature and documents to fill an application form or submit a document. Thanks to the enhanced quality of cameras on smartphones and featured apps, we can use the enhancement capabilities to completely replace the scanner. In just a few simple steps, you can scan your documents using the app that matches the physical scan quality.

step 1: If the scanning app is not pre-installed on your smartphone device, you will need to download one by visiting the Play Store/App Store.

step 2: Click on it and follow the on-screen instructions to create or log in to your account.

step 3: Once you are logged in, a camera interface will open, there will be several ways that you can scroll horizontally to find the one you need. Typically, you’ll need Document Scan Mode, which should have been opened by default. There are also other methods like whiteboard, book, ID card and business card.

step 4: Once you’re ready, point your camera at the document you want to scan.

Step 5: By default, the app will have auto-capture enabled, which means you only have to press on the screen once the document is displayed in the camera viewfinder. The app will work its magic and trace the four corners of the document on your viewfinder. While the app is capturing the document for you, you should see a message asking you to keep your hand steady. Keep your hand steady and wait until the capturing is finished.

Step 6: Once the document is captured, the app will take you to the adjustment page, where you can choose to crop the image manually if there is a mistake in the auto-capture. If you want to scan more pages, tap the ‘Keep scanning’ button. If you’re done or want to make adjustments, tap ‘Adjust & Save’.

Step 7: Now, tap on ‘Save as PDF’ option on the right side to save the scanned file as PDF.

Step 8: If you want to save the scanned image as JPEG, tap ‘Save as JPEG’ on the next screen. Alternatively, you can tap on More, and press ‘Copy to device’ to save the PDF file to your internal storage.
