ScanZen – PDF document scanner, OCR scanner app and PDF editor
Turn your Android phone camera into a scanner and paper into a tidy PDF in seconds. ScanZen spots the edges, crops and straightens the page and sharpens the text, ready to edit, sign, fill in or send. No account, no watermark, and everything stays on your phone.
📄 SCAN EVERY KIND OF PAPER
• Letters, contracts, payslips, forms and notes, one page or a whole pile at once
• ID card scanner: driving licence or ID card, both sides on one A4 page
• Book pages two at a time, split for you
• Whiteboards and flip charts, with filters for boards and paper
• Unlimited pages, offline: scanning and recognition run on the device
🔍 OCR SCANNER: IMAGE TO TEXT
Pull the words out of any scan, photo, screenshot or message picture and copy them in one tap. Recognition runs on your phone and reads English and other Latin-script languages, plus Japanese, Korean, Chinese (simplified and traditional), Hindi and Arabic, so Hindi OCR and Japanese OCR work offline too. Search inside every file, make a searchable PDF, create a PDF from typed words or have a page read aloud.
🔄 PDF CONVERTER: PDF TO WORD, EXCEL AND POWERPOINT
PDF to Word converter, PDF to Excel and PDF to PPT: convert a PDF into an editable DOCX, XLSX or PPTX file that keeps the fonts, size, bold, colour and table columns. Excel gets amounts as real numbers, PowerPoint gets one slide per page with editable text boxes. For Word and Excel, scanned pages are read on your phone; nothing is uploaded.
🧾 RECEIPT SCANNER AND EXPENSES BOOK
Snap receipts and bills and ScanZen reads the total, date and shop, then keeps a running total. Premium exports the lot as a CSV file for Excel.
⏰ EXPIRY DATE REMINDERS
Scan a passport, ID card or insurance document and ScanZen finds the expiry date. With Premium you get a reminder 30 and 7 days before.
✏️ EDIT, FILL IN AND SIGN PDFs
• Fill in PDF forms: tap a box, type, tick, then add your signature (3 saves included, then Premium)
• Draw your signature once and sign any PDF: tenancy agreements
