Scan a single document to JPG or PDF
In iOS 1.1.0, take a photo or select one image from Photos. Review the detected edges, correct perspective, crop, rotate and choose an image effect. JPG is the default save format; select PDF when saving if you need a document file.
The iOS 1.1.0 scanner processes one image at a time. It does not offer continuous multi-page capture or a dedicated ID-scanning mode. You can combine already selected images into one PDF using the separate image-to-PDF tool.
Extract text on your device
On-device OCR extracts text without uploading the source image. Run local OCR before exporting recognized text as Word, Excel or a searchable PDF. Check important text and numbers: recognition and layout depend on lighting, clarity and the original page.
Send files over the same network
Connect devices to the same Wi-Fi network or hotspot, select files on the sending device and scan its transfer QR code on the receiving device. Keep both apps in the foreground and use a trusted network without client isolation.
For computer-to-phone import, open the local address displayed by the app in a computer browser on the same network. Files travel between your devices rather than through a Filevia cloud file library.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a Filevia account or a subscription?
No Filevia account is required. The iOS app is a paid download that includes its provided local features without an additional Pro purchase or recurring subscription.
Will deleting the app delete my files?
Files in the app's private local directory may be deleted with the app. Export important documents to Files, Photos or another destination first.
