About JaxScan

JaxScan: PDF, OCR, Cam Scanner

PRIVATE & SECURE — YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE

  • Your documents never leave your phone — scans, text and signatures are stored privately in the app and never uploaded.
  • 100% offline scanner: scanning, OCR, QR and every PDF tool work on your phone, even in airplane mode.
  • Documents are excluded from Android cloud backup and phone-to-phone transfer.
  • Offline backup: save your whole library as one ZIP to a folder you choose and restore it any time — no cloud.
  • App lock with fingerprint, face or screen lock. While it's on, JaxScan is hidden in recent apps and screenshots are blocked.
  • No access to your contacts, location or storage — you pick every file you import.

DOCUMENT SCANNER — SCAN TO PDF

  • One camera, 6 modes: Scan, Extract Text, ID Card, Business Card, Sign and Erase Object — plus a live QR code scanner.
  • 10 filters, including scanner-grade Document, Whiteboard and B&W modes that lift shadows and turn paper white.
  • Crop and rotate any page.
  • Batch scan a whole stack into one PDF, then review every page before saving.
  • Import photos, PDFs, text, Word and PowerPoint files — or share into JaxScan from any app.

OCR TEXT SCANNER, BUSINESS CARD & ID CARD SCANNER

  • Extract text from images with on-device OCR: English, Spanish, French, German and other Latin-script languages, Hindi, Marathi, Nepali, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. Copy, share or save as .txt.
  • Digital PDFs give their real text, word for word.
  • Business card scanner: save name, company, phones, email, website and address to your contacts.
  • ID card scanner: front and back on one printable page, like a photocopy.

PDF EDITOR & CONVERTER

  • Image to PDF, image to Word, image to PowerPoint — and PDF to image, PDF to Word, PDF to PPT and PDF to text.
  • Merge PDF, split PDF by tapping the pages you want, reorder or delete pages.
  • Compress PDF at low, medium or high compression.
  • Add page numbers: real, searchable text in six positions and five styles or your own.
  • Watermark PDFs or photos with your own text.
  • Print any PDF.

SIGN PDF, REDACT & PASSWORD PROTECT

  • Sign documents: draw your signature once and reuse it; add text, dates, checkmarks and highlights.
  • Redact: black out names, numbers and addresses — burned into the page for good.
  • Lock PDF with AES-256 password protection, or unlock a PDF whose password you know.
  • Erase Object: brush over anything unwanted in a photo and it fills the gap in.

QR CODE & BARCODE SCANNER

  • QR, Aztec, Data Matrix, PDF417, EAN, UPC and Code 128/39 — live or from saved photos.
  • One tap to join Wi-Fi, open links, call, text, email, get directions, add a contact or event.
