How to scan documents on iPhone in three quick steps

The document scanning feature may be needed at times and we always resort to applications to do the job. Until Apple introduced the document scanning feature in iOS 11, it was built into the Notes application, which eliminates any other application and thus you can scan any files anytime and anywhere. In this article, we explain three quick steps to scanning any iPhone.

How to scan documents on iPhone in three quick steps


As is well known to all, scanning files on the iPhone is done through the Notes application by creating a new note, clicking the + button and choosing to scan documents.

Then choose Scan Files


And you can put a shortcut to the Notes app in Control Center if you want to quickly scan files. Go to Settings - Control Center - Customize Controls and then add notes to Control Center.

The previous method is the usual one, but you can scan files faster than that, in just three steps. And that is through the Control Center - then press and hold or by using 3D Touch - and then scan the document.

Then click Save to save it as a note. That way you will delete your files and customize them to your liking.

And if you want to create a PDF file, just click on the Share button on the top right

The posts window will be invoked and then choose to create and save a PDF document.

You can choose to save it to iCloud or the Files app, delete it, or you can share it elsewhere as you like.


Do you use the document scan feature in the notes app? Or are you using a third-party app? Let us know in the comments.

What is the benefit of scanning the pdf file?

I use Microsoft's app
I did not find a difference between the fact that the file is in pdf format or as an image

If someone can explain

    PDF format for books and documents

    Suppose, for example, you have a book and want to convert it
    Into an electronic book and save it on your computer
    Or your phone
    You will scan and convert all of its pages
    To a pdf file

    PDF scanner that reads texts
    And convert it to pdf format

    E-books are mostly in pdf format

    The built-in scanner in Notes app is unable to read the content of the scanned paper, but it only deals with it as an image and converts it into a PDF file.

    I tried really hard to do that but couldn't find an easy way to do that, the only way is to open the note and then open the PDF file to view the scanned sheet in full screen and then take a screenshot.

What do you think of the Apple Watch in the case of the murder of journalist Jamal Khashoggi? May God have mercy and bless his soul in paradise.

Well done on the valuable information
I actually scan with the CamScanner program, which is more than wonderful. I have relied on it for 7 years. It has a cloud feature and can be opened from a laptop as well as on any Android and iPhone system...
