## Scanning

### Live edge detection

Scan Clan tracks the page in the viewfinder and straightens the photo into a flat, rectangular scan, so a hand-held shot at an angle still comes out square.

### Multi-page capture

Keep shooting and the pages stack up in one document. Reorder them before you export.

### Import photos and PDFs

Bring in pictures you already took and PDFs you already have, and edit them alongside anything you scan.

### QR and barcode scanning

Point the camera at a code on a phone or a poster and act on it without leaving the app.

## Cleaning up the page

### Twelve filters

Magic Color, Magic White, Black and White, Greyscale, Whiteboard, Blackboard, Lighten Text, No Shadow, Screen, Vivid and Glare Removal, or keep the original untouched.

### Crop, rotate and straighten

Adjust the detected corners by hand when a page is folded, torn or photographed against a busy background.

### Shadow and glare removal

Even out the lighting when you are scanning under a lamp or next to a window.

### Text recognition

Pull the text out of a scan so the page can be searched and copied instead of only looked at.

## PDF tools

### Reorder, rotate, delete pages

Rearrange a document after the fact without rescanning it.

### Merge and split

Join several documents into one, or cut one into pieces.

### Compress

Shrink a document down when it has to fit an upload limit.

### Signatures

Save a signature once and place it on any page, at any size.

### Watermarks

Stamp a document before it leaves your hands.

## Sharing and privacy

### Password-protected export

Lock a shared PDF with AES-256 encryption so it needs a password to open.

### Share anywhere

Send to any app on your device, or export to your files.

### Processed on your device

Edge detection, filters, cropping and text recognition all run on the device in front of you, not on a server.

### Delete everything, on your terms

Ask us to delete your account and everything stored with it at any time, at [support@spirikle.com](mailto:support@spirikle.com).

## Across your devices

### Your library, kept safe

Documents live in your Scan Clan account, so they reach your other devices and survive a phone you lose or replace. 500 MB of storage is included, free.

### Android, iOS, desktop and web

The same documents on Android and iOS, Windows, macOS and Linux, and in the browser.

### Light and dark themes

Follows your system theme, and can be pinned either way.

### Your language

Scan Clan is translated into more than twenty languages.
