DocScan: Scan PDF & OCR Text

Are you tired of downloading a document scanner only to find that basic features are locked behind a paywall? Frustrated by aggressive ads, predatory subscriptions, and apps that force you to create an account just to scan a single piece of paper?

DocScan is here to change that. DocScan is a powerful, totally free document scanner and OCR text recognition app built for privacy, speed, and offline use. There are absolutely no subscriptions, no accounts required, no hidden fees, and zero watermarks on your files.

Whether you need to scan a contract for work, digitize a textbook for school, or keep track of receipts, DocScan turns your Android phone into a high-quality portable scanner app.

🚀 Why Choose DocScan?

Every scan, crop, and OCR text-recognition process happens entirely on your device — your documents never leave your phone.
