Private document scanner: scan to PDF with no upload. Pages stay on your phone.
PerliScan is a private document scanner that turns paper into a clean PDF in a few seconds, offline. Point your phone at a letter, a receipt or a form. The app finds the page edges, straightens the page and squares it to A4, and gives you a file that is ready to send.
It is an offline PDF scanner: everything happens on your phone. Sign in with your Google account to start; the account is used for sign-in only. Your pages are never uploaded, and scanning works offline.

FREE AND PRO
PerliScan is free, with ads. A small banner is shown, and one full-screen ad may appear after you share, save or print a finished scan. It never appears while you are scanning.
Free: one-page documents, 5 document scans a day, saving and sharing as PDF or images, and unlimited QR scanning.
PerliScan Pro is a one-off purchase, not a subscription. It removes all ads and unlocks multi-page documents, unlimited scans, Scan text and direct printing.
PRIVACY
The camera is used only to scan. Pages and text are processed on your device and are not sent to us. Ads are provided by Google AdMob, and in the EU and UK you are asked for consent before personalised ads are shown. Optional usage statistics are off by default and stay on your phone.
PerliScan, the private PDF scanner, is made in Ireland by Perlicom Systems Limited.
