Documents stay on your phone; there is no cloud vault or account required for core scanning.

Scan documents and receipts on your phone
Use Smart Scan for multi-page documents, or ID scan when you need a clean front and back card layout. After capture, keep the page, add more pages, then Save to store the PDF in Documents — or Share draft for a temporary export. For web-only ID workflows without the app, see how to scan an ID card to PDF.
