Editorial interest 79/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A private iPhone and iPad scanner that uses on-device OCR to organize receipts, statements, forms, and notes.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-12 issue.

Field notes

The proposed workflow uses Apple’s native document camera, local OCR, title and category assignment, and search across recognized page text. The interface is designed to expose two separate outcomes after capture: a searchable PaperDrawer record and a copy in Files, with the device location shown. Examples on the page include a September utility statement, a dental receipt, and a home-insurance renewal. The site says summaries and keywords depend on device support.
