Scan receipts, IDs and contracts in seconds. OCR, signatures, searchable PDFs — all on your iPhone. Supports Paperless. No subscription, no tracking.
Scn3R is the smart document scanner for iPhone. No subscription, no account, no tracking. Everything runs on your device.
• Scan in seconds with automatic edge detection, perspective correction and multi-page support
• Offline text recognition (OCR) in 5 languages — every document fully searchable
• Receipts & invoices: amount, merchant, date and category captured automatically
• Scan ID cards and passports — name, number and expiry are read straight from the MRZ (fully on-device, no NFC, no identity verification)
• Add a hand-drawn signature directly onto a page — recolor or remove it anytime
• Export searchable PDFs with an embedded text layer; view and copy recognized text
• Export as PDF, JPG or PNG — print and share anywhere
• File into your own self-hosted Paperless-ngx server — manually or automatically, as a searchable PDF with title, date, correspondent, type and tags
• App lock with Face ID, Touch ID or passcode
• Available in English, German, French, Spanish and Italian
Optional: Scn3R Plus (one-time purchase, no subscription) adds two convenience helpers — reminders for warranty, contract and ID expiry deadlines, and an optional AI assistant that can answer questions about your documents when you want help.
Private by design: text recognition, AI and all processing happen only on your iPhone. Your documents never leave your device.
