PDF Scanfolio: Scanner & Files
Scan to PDF, search every word
Free · In‑App Purchases
Searchable PDFs from paper, with scanning, OCR and search on device. Now files warranties, manuals, school and medical papers, plus a due-date widget and free signing.
Turn paper into PDFs you can actually find again.
Point, capture, done. Text recognition (OCR) reads the words inside every document, so "where did I put that?" stops being a question. Scanning, recognition and search all happen on this device.
WHAT PEOPLE SCAN
• Receipts, invoices and bills
• Contracts, warranties and manuals
• Business cards
• School handouts, letters and forms
• Handwritten notes, books and reference material
FEATURES
■ Capture straight to PDF
Edges are detected automatically. Capture several pages in one go and save them as a single PDF, or split them into separate documents. Photos, files on your device and PDFs shared from other apps go through the same pipeline.
■ Search inside your documents
Full-text search across everything you have saved, showing the matching page and line so you land exactly where you need to be. Plain, whole-word and regular-expression modes, plus filters for type, folder, period and amount.
■ Vertical Japanese, read correctly
Vertically written pages are read column by column, right to left. Recognized text can be corrected page by page, and corrections improve search immediately.
■ Filed by type, automatically
Receipts, invoices, contracts, business cards, warranties, manuals, school notices and medical documents are recognized, and a destination folder is suggested. For a warranty, the reminder suggests a month before a one-year warranty ends. Folders can be nested, renamed, coloured and given their own icons.
■ Sign and annotate
Add a signature to a contract or a handwritten note to any page, in the app.
■ Read the details off a receipt
Counterparty, date and total, plus tax amount, tax rate and the qualified invoice registration number where one is printed. Every field is editable and searchable.
■ Never miss a due date
Set a reminder and the document appears in the Due Dates list, overdue first, with a count on the Home screen.
■ Lock what matters
Face ID or passcode can lock the whole app, a folder, or one document. Locked documents are blurred in every list and stay out of search results.
■ Backup
Export your entire library as a password-encrypted archive and restore it on another device.
■ Widget and Siri
Start a scan from the Home Screen widget or by asking Siri. The Due Dates widget shows how many documents are overdue or due within 7 days — counts only, never a name. Shortcuts can search your documents or open the due-date list. iPad is fully supported.
PRIVACY
Scanning, text recognition, classification and search all happen on this device. Your documents are never uploaded, and no account or sign-in is required. The free tier's ad SDK connects to deliver ads and never has access to your documents. Pro removes ads. Automatic backup writes only to the folder you pick.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Fixed Annotate & Sign so the eraser and color choice work. The button at the top right of a document is now a menu icon (…) instead of a share icon.
ANNOTATE & SIGN
The drawing palette (pens, marker, eraser and colors) never appeared, leaving only a blue pen and Undo. The palette now shows at the bottom of the screen.
• Erase part of what you drew with the eraser
• Change the pen color, including any color from the color picker
• Switch between pen, fine pen and marker, and change the line width
Marks become part of the page when you tap Save, so use the eraser or Undo before saving.
DOCUMENT MENU
Besides exporting, that button holds page editing, annotation, transaction details and reminders, which were hard to find behind a share icon. Its contents are unchanged.
