How it works

Detect

Point. It captures itself.

Aim at the page and Scanster finds it, waits for the lens to settle, and fires on its own. Keep going for multi-page scans. Every page comes out cropped to the document and straightened.

Guide

For cluttered desks

When a busy desk defeats detection, switch to the guide right from the viewfinder: a frame that holds still while you line the page up. Double-tap and it sizes itself to whatever you're pointing at, down to a sticky note.

Filters

Color, Grayscale, B&W

Pick a filter, not a compression setting. Grayscale is sharp and small for paperwork, Black & White is pure ink for handwriting, Color keeps everything. The preview shows exactly what the PDF will look like, and the size shows before you save.

Beam

Scanning is free. Beam is the one upgrade.

Every scan, every page, every export is free forever. Beam adds four things for the people who live in their paperwork.

01  No watermark

Free PDFs carry a small Scanster footer. Beam exports are completely clean.

02  Names itself

New scans take their name from the document's own heading, so an invoice saves as the invoice it is, not a serial number.

03  Search & copy text

Every page becomes text you can search in your library, copy, or share as a text file. Recognition runs on your phone, like everything else.

04  Password lock

Share a password-locked copy of any PDF. The original stays untouched in your library.

One purchase, yours for good. Or a yearly plan if you prefer. Prices show in the app in your local currency, and there is nothing else to buy.

Private by construction

On device

Nothing leaves the phone

Finding the page, building the PDF, and reading the text all happen on your phone. Scanster has no servers to send anything to.

No account

Nothing to sign up for

No registration, no login, no email capture. Open the app and scan.

No tracking

Nothing watching

No analytics SDK, no ads, no third-party code phoning home. What you scan is your business.
