How to scan documents on Android
If you happen to have a Samsung Galaxy phone, you’ll be able to scan documents directly without downloading any 3rd party apps, so long as you have One UI 2 or higher. Most Galaxy phones from the past few years should have the feature, as Samsung is already rolling out One UI 4 to the Galaxy S20 and S21 series.
Simply launch the camera app from your Galaxy device and line it up with a document to start scanning. When you see yellow lines border the paper, select Tap to scan.
