A deskewed “true document” with an invisible, searchable OCR text layer — the moment a crooked snapshot becomes a machine-legible PDF.

Everything the free apps gate — done right

One-tap scan

Automatic edge detection and perspective correction via Apple VisionKit. From launch to camera in a single tap.

Real multi-page PDFs

Openable, printable, shareable PDFs with correct page order — never an image-only file, never a watermark.

Private by design

Everything runs on your iPhone. No account, no upload, no cloud. Your documents never leave the device.

Searchable OCR

An invisible text layer makes scans selectable and searchable — find any word inside a scan.

Combine & export

Merge scans into one PDF, export pages as JPG or PNG, and password-protect sensitive documents.

Local library

Browse, rename and delete your scans. Local-first storage you own — even if you stop updating.

Questions

Is it really free?

Yes. Scanning, multi-page PDF export, and the local library are free forever — with no watermark and no scan limit. Pro is a single optional one-time unlock.

Do my scans go to the cloud?

No. ScanLite processes everything on your device using Apple's on-device frameworks. Your documents are never uploaded.

Is there a subscription?

Never. Pro is a one-time purchase you keep forever, including across reinstalls and your other devices.
