About this app

Katip turns your phone into a simple document scanner — capture papers in seconds and turn them into clean, searchable PDFs. Free, no ads, no account — everything stays on your device. • Fast scanning — automatic edge detection and perspective correction; color, grayscale and black & white filters. • Searchable PDF — find text inside your documents with OCR; PDF text is selectable and copyable. • Stay organized — folders, favorites, sorting; merge or split docs. • Professional PDF — share in one tap, or protect with a password. • Import — add images and PDFs from Photos or Files. • Privacy first — scanning, OCR and storage are fully on-device. No ads, no tracking, no account. Lock the app with Face ID. • iPad — list and document side by side. • iCloud (optional) — sync your documents across your devices. Your data is yours. Katip collects nothing.

Latest release

What’s New

Version 1.1 Jul 3, 2026

This update connects Katip more tightly to your daily flow: • Add from the Share sheet: send a PDF or photo from Safari, Mail, Files, or any app straight into Katip as a document. • Siri & Shortcuts: say "Scan a document with Katip," or build your own automations. • Sign & annotate: sign with your finger or Apple Pencil, add date/note stamps, highlight what matters — then share as a PDF. • Search highlighting: see exactly where your term appears inside a document, highlighted; tap to jump straight to it. • Add to an existing document: pages picked from Photos or Files can now be added to the open document instead of always creating a new one. Katip is still completely free, with no ads.
