help Genius Scan FAQ
Does Genius Scan work offline, or does it send my scans to a cloud server?
Genius Scan performs document scanning, cropping, and PDF generation locally on your device, so it works fully offline. Cloud sync to services like Google Drive, Dropbox, or Evernote requires a separate connection and, in many cases, a Genius Cloud subscription.
Can Genius Scan do OCR so I can search text inside my scanned PDFs?
Yes, but OCR (optical character recognition) is part of the premium Genius Scan+ tier rather than the free version. With OCR enabled, scanned documents become searchable PDFs, and you can copy text out of them.
Is Genius Scan free, or do I have to pay to remove ads and unlock features?
The core Genius Scan app is free on both iOS and Android, with ads and basic scanning features. Genius Scan+ is the paid upgrade (one-time purchase) that removes ads and adds OCR, integrations, and higher-quality export options.
Can Genius Scan batch-scan multiple pages into a single PDF?
Yes, Genius Scan supports batch scanning so you can capture multiple pages in a row and combine them into one multi-page PDF. You can reorder, delete, or add pages to the document before exporting.
