Less filing. More finding.
Your paper trail, without the clutter.
PaperDrawer gives the important parts of document scanning more clarity: one capture action, searchable text, useful organization, and a save state you can trust.
Understand it at a glance
A local title and category organize every scan; supported devices can add an on-device summary and keywords.
Know where it was saved
Every document clearly shows its PaperDrawer and Files status, so saving never ends in uncertainty.
One clear flow
From desk to archive in three steps.
The interface stays out of the way while the useful work happens on your device.
Scan the pages
Use Apple’s native document camera to capture clean, cropped pages quickly.
Recognize and organize
PaperDrawer reads the text locally, assigns a useful title and category, and adds on-device details where supported.
Find it when it matters
Search by title or page content, then open the matching copy directly in Files.
Saving, made visible
No mystery after the shutter.
PaperDrawer shows when the scan is searchable, whether its Files copy exists, and which device location contains it.
