How to scan and make pdf files from my phone?

I need to scan several pages of paper notes into a single PDF directly using my phone. Normal camera photos just save as separate JPGs, so what is the best way to do this?

I had the same problem with my notes. I used a scanning app that lets you photograph each page, adjust the edges, and save all the pages together as one PDF. Most phones have this built in now through the Notes or Drive app, so I would try that before installing anything.

If you have an iPhone, the Notes app has a built in scanner, just tap the camera icon and choose “scan documents,” it lets you scan multiple pages into one PDF. Android phones usually have something similar in Google Drive. What phone do you have?

  1. On an iPhone, open the Notes app, tap the camera icon, and choose Scan Documents.
  2. On Android, open the Google Drive app, tap the plus sign, and select Scan.
  3. Take photos of each page in sequence, then save. Both apps will combine everything into a single PDF automatically.
