Scan and edit before you download the app

A small scan studio and two tools that run entirely in your browser. Your images are not uploaded. The text recognition of the sample pages is predefined (simulation), the app recognizes text on the device itself.

Export

Simplified demo. The app additionally offers HEIC, text, A1 and A2 as well as password and “View Only” protection; its search finds documents by title and recognized text. Here the file is created locally in your browser.

A scan studio you can touch

Three sample pages are ready as tiles. Arrange, filter, redact, sign and export them as PDF, or load an image of your own.

  • Reorder the pages with drag & drop
  • Apply the “No Shadows” filter
  • Redact the IBAN on the invoice and check the text recognition
  • Draw your signature and place it on a page
  • Undo a change
  • Export the pages as PDF
Done! That is how paper becomes a clean PDF.

Note: the PDF contains the pages as images and, for the sample pages, an invisible text layer without the redacted lines. Real text recognition, password and “View Only” protection are in the app.

Workflow

From paper to the finished PDF

One workflow, without switching apps.

Scan

Several pages in one pass, with the Apple scanner or the built-in scanner with burst capture. Plus photos, images, files, PDFs, clipboard, blank pages and sketches.

Arrange

Every page as a tile. Sort with drag & drop, duplicate, hide or delete. Every change can be undone.

Edit

Crop, straighten, rotate, mirror, filters and colors, “No Shadows”, signature and redaction. The original is always kept.

Share

PDF, JPEG, PNG, HEIC or text. Paper sizes from A1 to A5, US Letter and US Legal, with a maximum file size if you like.

True redaction

A black box is not enough

If you only put a box over text, the text underneath often stays in the file. In OneTwo Scanner the text under the box is gone from every file, including the text recognition.

Just a box

Bank details

The text still sits under the box. Search and copy find it.

True redaction

The text is gone, also from the text recognition and from every export.

Features

What OneTwo Scanner can do

Everything between paper and finished PDF.

Scanning with burst capture

The Apple scanner or the built-in scanner with burst capture and adjustable sensitivity capture several pages at once. The app warns you when a page is too dark and, from iOS 26, also when the lens looks smudged.

ID card mode

Front and back of an ID card at true size on one page.

Tiles

All pages at a glance: sort, select several, duplicate, hide, copy or move to other documents.

Edit

Crop, straighten, rotate, mirror, filters and colors. “No Shadows” makes paper evenly white.

Signature

Save once and place anywhere, also drawn with Apple Pencil.

Text recognition

OCR runs in the background and makes PDFs searchable, with an invisible text layer. You tap phone numbers, addresses, emails and links directly.

Export made to measure

PDF, JPEG, PNG, HEIC or text. Paper sizes A1 to A5, US Letter and US Legal, a maximum size for portals and email, PDF with password, “View Only” protection, watermark and page numbers.

True redaction

The text under the box is gone from every file. The original is kept, every change is a separate layer.

Find everything again

Search, sorting, color tags and a trash that keeps documents for 30 days. Share, save to Files, mail, print or save to Photos.

Live scanner and more

More than paper

The camera also reads what is not on paper. Everything runs right on your device.

QR codes, barcodes and textThe live scanner reads QR codes, barcodes and text.
Live translationTranslate menus, signs and text live. Translation runs with Apple’s framework on the device and may ask once to download a language.
Business cards and tablesBusiness cards become a shareable contact card. Tables can be shared as CSV (iOS 26 and later).
Apple IntelligenceSuggest titles and summarize content, on supported devices running iOS 26 or later.
Share extensionYou bring in files from other apps directly.
Always at handWidgets for Home and Lock Screen, controls for Control Center and the Action button, Shortcuts and Spotlight. For the translator you can take a photo even when the device is locked.

OneTwo Scanner runs on iPhone and iPad from iOS 18, not on the Mac. Nine color themes, each light and dark.

iCloud sync

Optional, and never silently overwritten

If you like, the app syncs your documents between iPhone and iPad through your private iCloud. If a document was changed on two devices, you see the conflict and decide. Try it:

Changed on iPhone
Lease
3 pages, signed
Changed on iPad
Lease
3 pages, IBAN redacted

Local without iCloud

The app works fully without iCloud. Then everything stays on your device.

Conflicts are shown

Instead of overwriting silently, the app shows you both versions. The demo is simplified; in the app you can also keep both.

Private iCloud

Sync uses your private iCloud database. The developer has no access.

Privacy

Your documents stay yours

No server, no tracking, no account

There are no ads and no analytics. No data is collected or sent to the developer.

App Lock and protected documents

You protect the app or individual documents with Face ID, Touch ID or passcode. In the app switcher the content stays hidden.

Everything on the device

Text recognition, translation and Apple Intelligence run right on your device.

Everything else is in the privacy policy.

Frequently asked questions

?What is OneTwo Scanner?

A document scanner for iPhone and iPad: you scan several pages, arrange them as tiles, edit, sign, redact and share them as a searchable PDF. On the Home Screen the app appears as “12 Scanner”.

?Is there a Mac version?

No. Version 1.0 runs on iPhone and iPad.

?What does “true redaction” mean?

The text under the box is gone from every exported file, including the text recognition. A plain black box often leaves the text in the file.

?How does text recognition work?

The app recognizes text in the background right on the device and puts it as an invisible text layer under the image. That makes PDFs searchable, and phone numbers, addresses, emails and links can be tapped.

?Can I copy an ID card?

Yes. ID card mode places front and back at true size on one page.

?Which export formats are there?

PDF, JPEG, PNG, HEIC and plain text. You pick paper sizes from A1 to A5, US Letter and US Legal and a maximum file size for web portals and email. PDFs come with password, “View Only” protection (printing, copying and editing locked), watermark and page numbers.

?Does the app work without iCloud?

Yes. Without iCloud the app works fully locally. The optional sync between iPhone and iPad uses your private iCloud and shows conflicts.

?Why does the app need camera, photos and Face ID?

Only when you use the feature: the camera for scanning and the live scanner, Face ID for the optional App Lock and protected documents. Photos (add only) are needed only if you save exported images to Photos. For imports the app uses the system photo picker.

?How much does the app cost?

A one-time €2.99, with no subscription and no in-app purchases. The price in the App Store at launch applies.

?When will the app be released?

There is no exact date yet. This page will be updated as soon as OneTwo Scanner is available on the App Store.
