About the app

About PDF Scanner

PDF Scanner (SCANit) by NKD BVR Labs turns your Android phone into a pocket scanner, PDF editor and file organiser. It is free, works offline and keeps your documents on your phone.

Scan anything in seconds

Point the camera at a document, receipt, book page or ID card. Auto edge detection crops away the desk behind it, and filters sharpen the text so it stays clear even in low light.

You can also import photos from your gallery and turn several of them into one tidy PDF. There are no watermarks and no daily page limits.

Read and reuse the text

Built-in OCR recognises text in English and Hindi. Copy it, edit it, and save the result as a PDF or a Word file, which saves you from retyping notes, letters and forms.

A complete PDF toolkit

Edit existing text in a PDF, add new text or images, and fix repeated words with Find & Replace. Merge several PDFs in the order you choose, split a long file, and reorder, rotate or delete pages.

PDF and TXT files can be converted to Word, and DOCX files open in the built-in viewer. You choose the page size and the folder where your files are saved.

Private, offline and in your language

Sensitive papers can go into a Private Folder locked with a PIN, and any PDF can be protected with a password. Scanning and editing work without an internet connection.

When you are ready, share your PDFs to WhatsApp or email, or back them up to Google Drive, Dropbox or OneDrive. The app is available in many languages.
