Overview

Smart Scanner turns your phone into a document scanner that also reads, searches and translates what you scan.

Scan contracts, invoices, receipts, notes or ID cards. The app finds the page edges, recognizes the text on your device and lets you search it later, even inside photos and imported PDFs. Keep documents in folders, reorder and rotate pages, add a signature, and share a PDF or JPG in the size you need.

FAQ

Are my documents uploaded to a server?
No. Scanning, text recognition, search and translation run on your device, and your documents are stored only on your phone. The free version shows ads from Google AdMob, which receives device and advertising information; see the Privacy Policy for details.
Which languages can it recognize and translate?
Text recognition supports Latin-script languages (English, Spanish, French, German and many more), Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Devanagari. Translation covers more than 50 languages; each language pack is downloaded once, then translation runs on your device.
Can I sign documents in the app?
Yes. Draw your signature, place it on any page, then move, resize or rotate it. You can also add a text watermark.
What formats can I export?
PDF or JPG images, in A4 or Letter size, with four quality levels from original to small. You can share, save to your device or print.
What does Smart Scanner Pro include?
Pro is a one-time purchase through Google Play. It removes ads and unlocks password-protected PDFs, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Devanagari text recognition, and backup and restore.
How do I keep my documents safe?
Turn on App lock to require your fingerprint, face or device PIN, protect exported PDFs with a password, and save a backup file to a location you choose.

Smart Scanner: Document Scanner with Search, Translation and PDF Tools

Paperwork piles up fast: contracts, invoices, receipts, meeting notes, forms and ID cards. Smart Scanner turns them into clean PDFs on your phone and makes the text inside them useful, so you can find, copy, translate and share it later.

Scan once, find it any time

Every page you scan or import is read on your device. Type a word such as deposit or an invoice number and Smart Scanner shows the documents that contain it, even when the word only appears inside a photo. Search ignores accents, so resume also finds résumé.

What you can do

  • Scan and import: automatic edge detection, a dedicated ID card mode, a QR and barcode scanner, and import of PDFs and photos shared from other apps.
  • Text recognition: copy text from any page, with one-tap actions for emails, links and phone numbers.
  • On-device translation: translate recognized text between more than 50 languages without sending it to a server.
  • Organize: color folders, merge documents, reorder, rotate or extract pages, and undo an accidental delete.
  • Sign and mark up: handwritten signatures and watermarks kept on a separate layer, so the scanned page itself stays untouched.
  • Share the right size: PDF or JPG, A4 or Letter, from original quality to a small file for chat apps, plus printing and saving to your device.
  • Protect: password-protected PDFs with AES-256 encryption, App lock and backup to a file you control.

Made for everyday paperwork

Students keep lecture notes searchable, freelancers send signed contracts and invoices, and travellers translate booking letters on the spot. The app is available in English, Vietnamese, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German, Indonesian and Hindi.

Smart Scanner is free with ads. Smart Scanner Pro is an optional one-time purchase that removes ads and unlocks extra tools.
