Clear Scan

Clear Scan (Clear Scanner: Free PDF Scans) converts your smartphone into a fast, lightweight scanner that captures documents in high quality with a single tap. You can scan office papers, receipts, bills, books, magazines, IDs, class notes, and photos, then convert them instantly into PDF or JPEG. Clear Scan helps you digitize paperwork quickly, keep it readable, and share it right away without needing a physical scanner.

High-Quality Scanning with Smart Edge Detection

Clear Scan automatically detects document edges and applies perspective correction to produce a cleaner, straighter scan. You can also crop manually when you only want a specific section. The app improves clarity by adjusting brightness, reducing shadows, and correcting alignment, which makes text easier to read and saves time compared to manual photo editing.

Fast Processing and Professional Filters

Clear Scan processes scans quickly, so you can scan multiple pages without waiting. It includes filter modes that help you match the scan style to your document type, such as photo, document, clear, color, and black & white, so you can create professional-looking results for both text-heavy pages and images.

Edit Even After You Save

Clear Scan lets you continue editing after you save a scan. You can refine pages, adjust the appearance, and apply filters later, which helps when you scan in a hurry and want to polish documents afterward.

Organize Documents with Folders, Names, and Search

Clear Scan helps you stay organized by supporting folders and subfolders. You can name documents properly, store everything inside the app, and search when you need to find a specific file quickly. This structure makes it easier to manage school notes, business receipts, and long-term records.

Multi-Page PDF Control (Add, Delete, Reorder, Resize)

Clear Scan supports multi-page documents and gives you full control over page structure. You can add or delete pages, remove an entire document, and reorder pages after changes. The app also allows you to set PDF page sizes such as Letter, Legal, A4, and more, which helps when you submit files to schools, offices, or clients.

Share, Export, and Print in Seconds

Clear Scan makes sharing simple. You can email specific pages or send an entire document or folder. The app also lets you open PDFs or JPEGs in other services and apps—such as Dropbox, OneDrive, SkyDrive, Google Drive, and Evernote—so you can upload to the cloud or forward files immediately. When you need a physical copy, you can print PDFs using Cloud Print.

OCR: Extract Text from Images

Clear Scan includes OCR text extraction so you can convert images into editable/searchable text. This feature helps you reuse printed content, search within scanned notes, and share text without retyping it.

Backup and Restore for Peace of Mind

Clear Scan offers manual Backup & Restore tools so you can create a backup file and restore your scans if you change devices or lose data. This keeps your documents portable and reduces the risk of losing important records.
