What Scanner Pro is
Scanner Pro is a document-scanning app for turning paper records into digital files on iOS and macOS. It captures documents, receipts, IDs, business cards, books, and photos, using automatic edge detection and perspective correction. Scans can be saved as single-page or multi-page PDFs, reordered, merged, edited, annotated, signed, and shared. Export formats include PDF, Word, PowerPoint, JPG, and TXT. Built-in OCR makes scans searchable and allows recognized text to be selected and copied. Users can password-protect PDFs, back up and sync scans through iCloud, and automatically export to services such as Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, OneNote, and WebDAV storage. Sharing options include email, printing, fax, and AirDrop. On iOS 26, the Translator tool translates scans or PDFs into more than 20 languages on device. A free plan and seven-day trial are listed; Scanner Pro Plus costs $59.99/year.
