Questions

More answers in the Help Center.

Is PDFScanly free?

Yes. All the scanning tools are free. A small "Scanned with PDFScanly" badge is added to shared files, which you can remove for one share by watching a short video, or for good with Premium.

Are my documents uploaded anywhere?

No. Scanning, filters, text extraction and translation all happen on your phone. Your documents stay on your device unless you choose to share them.

Does it work without internet?
