Tiny Scanner review

Tiny Scanner combines a scanner with a small PDF editor. TinyWork Apps lists AI border detection, batch scanning for multi-page documents and dedicated modes for passports, IDs and driver's licenses, plus odd extras such as measuring an object's length and counting identical objects. Once a page is scanned you can sign it, add text, images, dates, page numbers or watermarks, merge or split PDFs, and convert PDFs to Word, JPG or Excel after OCR. Security options include encrypted shared PDFs, an app lock and encrypted folders kept only on the device, and cloud sync with free storage covers your other devices. The value is weaker: the listing says the free app contains advertising, and the US App Store shows ten Premium prices, from a $4.99 Premium Plan per month to weekly plans at $4.99 to $9.99, which add up quickly. Check which plan you are buying before you subscribe.
