Thank you! With the updated Notes App, the camera icon is gone, but simply holding my finger down on the app pulls up the menu with the choice to scan! Score!
Thank you so much for this video! I am 68 years old and not a techie. But the instructions in this video were very easy to follow on my phone. Sometimes companies like the rental agency for my apartment or my internet provider prefer a scan over just a photo, but I didn’t want to pay for an app to scan the rental or internet contracts.
Thank you, really appreciate the comment. I get some people telling me I am speaking too fast all the time and then to slow other times lol... So glad I could help
Your ability to move along accurately, outline concisely, and ability to time and match the video is outstanding. Your teaching style encompasses everything most users would need to know to develop a solid foundation of their iPhone. Thanks
No worries glad this helped and hopefully saved you money. I have more iPhone videos on my channel (ruclips.net/user/DHTV) if you are looking for more iPhone tips.
Nice tutorial. Once you've got the general concept down, it also works on the iPad - the principal difference being that the iPad screens function the same, they just look different. Very useful feature of IOS and iPadOS. Thanks for the tutorial!😎
I’m always amazed when I learn just how useful these phones are. I;ve scanned to Notes a few times it’s quite an intuitive task. I usually have to relearn how to carry out tasks with my phone, but it’ll always be that way, as I don’t do these things very often. Thanks for the vid.
This was a great tutorial. I had no idea my iPhone 13 could do this! I had an Android for years and recently switched and I'm still learning. This was most helpful!
This has saved me a lot of frustration! Thank you. I was always looking for an app that was inexpensive, I had one that I used that was free, then they charged.
This is absolutely amazing! I’ve always taken a picture and then I would change it into a PDF using the Books icon. This creates a PDF immediately. Thank you thank you thank you! ☺️
No problem, so glad I could help you scan on the iPhone. Apple moved the notes app scan option to the little paper clip icon now toward the bottom of the screen.
Can anybody explain why pressing new Note on my iPhone 12 with latest update does not show the bar on the top mentioned in this video does not show up, instead only autocorrect words option?
What’s wrong with my iPhone 8 plus, iOS 167.10? When I go to notes, new note, I don’t see any camera icon, just a keyboard on the bottom of the screen. No tool bar on top of the keyboard, just typing assistant. The Files method works for me.
So glad I’ve seen this video! Right to the point, clear and organized. Question: is it possible to combine more than one scanned page in one document? Thanks.
Very helpful, thank you. I’ve used the scan feature on my iPhone before but I tend to forget about it and use my actual scanner. This is definitely more convenient.
Iphone 13 here. It didn't have the controls on the top like yours did when you opened 'create document'. But I found a place that said to upgrade the application. I did that and now the controls show up. That might be something you need to add to your tutorial.
Thank you for the demo of notes/files. One thing that you missed that is important. When scanning a page of text the result is I assume an image file. What if I want to make some changes to that doc and then email it? Is OCR available in Notes or Files?
Thankyou so much. I had no idea about these options available. I have to upload documents and file for online application. No clue how to do it! I will be practising now! So happy!
Well, OH, I use notes all the time. Never knew it scanned. Grabbed a book, Pride & Predacious lol, scanned as a test, it worked. I got the pen, scribbled a note on top of page - it worked and saved - Yippee Ta & so much more it can do 😊 I pinned to the top as I have too many things in Notes.
.. Iphone... Mostly for scans and Notes.. some photos..... WhatsApp... Web notifications $... Health / steps.. weather .. phone dual sim.. In that order... Thanks again on ios 16 / xr..
Great video. I am scanning documents only for purpose of emailing but I noticed the scans are starting to pile up in my photos file. Any way of scan, PDF, and emailing without them also going into my photos??
Thank you, really appreciate this comment. I do tend to go to fast in some videos but I have been working on slowing down. Glad you liked my iPhone Document Scanner video.
Thanks, I don’t remember if I showed it but when you open a scan in the files app the markup tool is at the bottom in the middle. You can use it to sign.
A great video. Glad I came across this. I did not know you could do that, I thought I would have to buy one of the apps. You've now got a new subscriber! I look forward to more informative videos like this.
I didn't know until now that the notes app could do this, I just tried and it works fine. The one thing I couldn't do was save the file as an image - JPEG or PNG format. Can you please let me know if that feature is available? I've been using Adobe Scan for this exact purpose, it's ad-free and works fine with the function to save the PDF as an image in JPEG.
Right now I haven’t found a way to scan with the iPhone in jpeg or other formats other than PDF. Camera app takes pics but you loose the scan feature. Wish they would add it.
It's great 👍, in android we use play store to download third party apps for scan, here already available, pl post these types videos in future for using of apps of apple phone to its depth of gravity. Thanks 👍
So glad my iPhone Scanner video was helpful. I have tons of iPhone tutorials and tips like this on my channel and many more to come. Thanks for the comment!
I saved my scanned documents the first way through the notes and it won’t let me email it for some reason. “Couldn’t add people; a link couldn’t be created for you to share”….. maybe you can say why????
Any way to make the scanned PDF smaller without compressing it into a zip file. Many multi page PDF’s downloaded from a website are much less than 1 M in size. If you print then scan the same document in iOS it will much larger, always greater than 1 M. This requires a lot of storage of done often.
With the iPhone it is tough but on the mac there is an option to export the pdf from the preview window. If you have a mac, open the pdf with preview, tap file, export and when under the quartz filter drop down select reduce file size.
You have to look around the sections of the file app. Depends where it defaults to or you may not have tapped save. If it saved you have a search box in the files app, Usually the saved name is Scanned Document, so in files just type that in the search box and see if it appears. If it does, check the scan and see if it was the one you scanned. If not, you may not have saved it.
Thanks so glad the video helped! Its such a hidden feature in the options of these apps but so useful. If you are looking for more iPhone tips and tutorials, check my channel.
If you want to avoid unintended scans in auto mode, no more clumsy finger position for scanning… I have a tip. To make your life easier when you have a large and heavy phone: go into settings/accessibilty/voice command/commands/custom and create a new custom command « scan » for instance and touch where the shutter button on the camera app is. Now you can ask Siri to activate voice command, stay in ´manual’ mode and say « scan » whenever you’re ready to scan a new page.
Okay - I found it, in the attachment icon (paperclip) Confusing. Maybe add this info to your video. It’s NOT at the 3 dots at the top. Why is my 18.0 version different?
Thank you for your clear instructions without excess verbiage.
No worries glad the video was useful for you!

The bar with the camera option doesn't show on my Notes keyboard is not there... how do I proceed?
Question. There is no camera icon when I press the box in my Notes. Is there a way to get it to appear?
So the camera option moved in iOS 18. You can now tap the paper clip icon in the notes app and tap the camera option to scan on the iPhone.
Thank you for the demo of notes/files. One thing that you missed that is important. When scanning a page of text the result is I assume an image file. What if I want to make some changes to that doc and then email it?
Is OCR available in Notes or Files?
There is a bilingual setup too but none of you guys seem to know about it! I’m not sure how I got there but this feature removes any switch

What about scanning a QR
Great video. I shared my document scan via text for a quicker response in case they don’t check their email regularly.
Is there any way I can open one app and choose to take regular pics or use the scanner function ??
Good tutorial video.
Thanks, glad you liked it!
How to make more than one page into a continuing file? I mean merge to make one pdf or image ?
EXCELLENT. I watched a video from years ago and my iPhone 14 did not have the same visual look so it was difficult to follow that video! Thank you.

Maybe you've done it elsewhere but you didn't mention the text option
Great video! One question, can you sign documents through the Files app like you can with Notes? I probably missed that part.
Thanks, I don’t remember if I showed it but when you open a scan in the files app the markup tool is at the bottom in the middle. You can use it to sign.

My experience with iphone/ ipad and notes: the camera function only works with a paid-for icloud subscription. Is that right?
Excellent you are so clearly spoken. Precise and informative. So pleased I found you.🐞
What about my how do u add your signature?
Absolutely perfection with this Video Post using Notes & Files! Thank you!💯🤩👍🏽
I just found your channel. Very informative. Straight to the point. 👍🏽
Thanks man. Stuck working from home today and my scanner broke. Life saver!
In IOS 18, the camera icon has (annoyingly) changed to a paperclip.
Yes they changed it with iOS 18 unfortunately
A great video. Glad I came across this. I did not know you could do that, I thought I would have to buy one of the apps. You've now got a new subscriber! I look forward to more informative videos like this.
Thanks for the sub! I am glad the video was useful!
Great video. Is it possible to save the file directly in PDF format?
If you use the Files app, it is saved in PDF by default.
My iPhone (15) does not have a camera icon when I open the Notes app.
The Apple update iOS 18 moved it to the 3 dot button in the top right or tap the paper clip icon and the camera is there nown
Is it me or there is no bar on top at second 48? Can't find that option. Anyone run into this issue?
When I go to my notes on my 16 pro there is no camera button or any of those others. Help
So they moved the scan option in notes when iOS 18 was updated. It is now accessible when you tap the little paper clip icon at the bottom.
Really Awesome Explanation! I didn’t know that IPhone can do this and was using cam scanner
Instructions are very clear. Thank you!
How about scanning a document you already have on your phone?
I’m not sure I understand? If it is already on your phone why would you need to scan it?
Glad I found this! Thanks

And FILES will scan, too??
Is notes app the only one that scans?
