[@sanciabenaine8430]

I wanna know how to scan without taking a photo and using ones in your gallery

[@ramongerix]

Hi Michael! Do you use Push mail on your iPhone?

[@luddiamant]

Thank you. I just did that and noticed that it scans not in A4 format. It's smaller. Do you know how to correct this?

[@DennisMathias]

I want to scan to jpg files. Or pdfs. How do you change that?

[@waleedantar4991]

Hello, can we save this picture to picture App ?

[@quickyreviews6597]

iPhone has no rival!

[@user-oe7ur4df6w]

I scanned the document just fine but when I airdropped to my computer it wnet back to looking like when i took the picture not as a document aka pdf

How do I save in gallery

[@brownnancy4789]

How can I move saved photos to my photos app

[@mamawanderlust6000]

My I Phone 11 pro does not have the camera icon to take a photo when I open notes.

[@MariaRamos-hc4be]

Thanks can it be shared and or save into my pictures instead of a pdf file?

[@CSGraves]

You have to go into Settings/Notes under Media, toggle 'Save to Photos', and the scan should appear in your camera roll after you hit 'save' in Notes.

How can i save it as picture not as Pdf??

[@milosjankovic6037]

Make a screen shot

[@shellyerrington3236]

@@milosjankovic6037 brilliant. And put the scan camera on manual so that it does not distort the image the way Auto is likely to.

[@CherylFitzhugh]

I have scanned a number of photo's how can I move them to photos folder so that I can do a slideshow? Thank you so much

[@lukemichaelbrookfield9664]

Basically, you can’t.

[@johnmarkgregorio8444]

Can you edit/scan pictures/documents already taken by phone? Thanks

[@barisinan02]

did you find the solution ? I have the same issue

[@pinkykaur8760]

@@barisinan02I want to know that too!

[@barisinan02]

@@pinkykaur8760 Unfortunately, previously taken photos cannot be scanned. You can easily do this with the Adobe Scanner program.

[@agentcoleson8729]

How do you scan Documents from Link pages...Example Banks send you a text to your phone and you click that link and it says Scan your *Whatever its asking you for* and when you click that Scan button it open up a Browser page that's acting like your Camera to scan whatever..but it doesn't work.

[@08jmichael]

You have probably found a solution already, but you can take a screenshot of webpages on your phone.
Once you take the screenshot, it makes a thumbnail in the lower left corner. Click on that thumbnail and it will show you the full screenshot. Once there, there is a “full page” button at the top (for most pages). Click that button and you will be able to save the entire page no matter how long it scrolls. I hope this is helpful.

[@untouchable999]

My notes on iPhone don’t have that option

[@mcenteno96]

I try but it didn’t work

[@aloktripathi3]

Hi Michael, how can I save scanned documents in to photos app…is it possible to save pdf documents in to photos?

[@jackflorida4118]

I have the same question

[@umutozer1292]

me too

[@grogu4853]

You could probably just screenshot it.

[@EppingBlogger]

@@grogu4853 And that gives you a jpg file. I have inferred that "scan" means create a pdf. Is that right do you know, or is there an option to create jpg files.

[@jinmeow1685]

iPhone 11 has Take photo or Video option.

[@pipicute6981]

Can fix some words after you scanned

[@wedmar2282]

When I try to do it, it says that I have to update my notes. But I dont know where

[@erasteericm.2790]

Dcbe😂😂

[@alexmartinez3683]

The issue with this, is that the photos are not going to be as Clean if you want to use save them somewhere else like notion, powerpoint etc. I wish iPhone could do this with their camera

[@lazy2772]

Thank you soo much brother or else my father would killed me😂
