How it works

Open the app and align your camera. The auto-detector instantly finds edges, corrects perspective distortion, and snaps the perfect shot.

2. Enhance and Annotate
Apply advanced filters to make scanned text crystal clear. Add digital signatures, annotations, stamps, or redact sensitive info entirely offline.
03
3. Export and Share
Save scans as multi-page PDFs or JPEG images. Encrypt files with password protection or export straight to your favorite local or cloud storage.

Frequently asked questions
Is OnlyScans safe?
Yes. OnlyScans was built so your documents stay private: scans, images, and recognized text are stored only on your device, and the app does not operate a cloud backend or upload your files. Purchases are handled by Google Play Billing, so OnlyScans never sees your payment card details.
Does OnlyScans work offline?
Yes. Capture, edge detection, filters, and OCR all run on your device, so you can scan without an internet connection. You only need a connection to install the app or manage a purchase on Google Play.
Does OnlyScans upload my documents to the cloud?
No. Your scans stay on your device unless you choose to export or share them yourself. Text recognition runs locally with ML Kit, and Google Play services may process basic operational diagnostics.
Is there a free version of OnlyScans?
Yes. The free tier includes unlimited scans, offline local processing, basic filters, and PDF or JPEG export with a watermark. Pro plans add OCR text extraction, searchable PDF export, batch scanning, and more.
