TL;DR: SwiftScan VIP lets you scan any document with your phone, and it’s only $41.99 for a lifetime subscription.

If you don’t have a desktop scanner, making a digital copy of a physical document is frustrating. It feels like your camera should be able to get the job done, but then you end up with a blurry page that’s poorly aligned that you can’t edit. The good news is your camera actually can get the job done. It just needs help.

SwiftScan VIP is an intuitive scanner app for Android and iOS devices. It uses your phone’s camera to create high-quality scans of any document, and a lifetime subscription just went on sale for $41.99 (reg. $199.99).

Once you open the app, SwiftScan automatically detects the edges of your document, captures the image, and cleans it up with built-in tools like blur reduction and color optimization.

The result is a clear, properly aligned scan that looks like it came from a real scanner, not your phone. You can save your scans as PDF or JPEG files and send them via email, upload them to the cloud, or even fax them directly from the app.

SwiftScan also lets you edit your scans. You can sign, highlight, redact, or annotate files. You can merge pages, rearrange them, or remove them completely. It even uses OCR to make your scans searchable by keyword, which is helpful if you scan frequently and don’t want to scroll through dozens of files.
