Private by design
Your documents stay with you.
On Android, Kopi Scan has no internet permission: the app itself has no way to send your documents anywhere. Here is what that means in practice.
Text is read on your device
Scanning, text reading and search run on your phone. On Android, Google Play services may download Google parts, such as the document scanner, and send Google usage statistics about them.
Stored encrypted
Your documents, page pictures and their text are stored encrypted on your device (AES-256-GCM files and an encrypted database), with the key in the Android Keystore.
Sharing and backups are your call
A copy leaves your phone only when you share, save, print or back up to a folder you picked. Backups are encrypted with your password: only your password or Recovery Key opens them.
Free vs Pro
Core features are free. Pro is optional.
Everything you need to scan, read, search, organize, sign, share and back up your documents is free. Pro adds tools for receipts, bills and long PDFs.

Questions people ask
Is Kopi Scan free?
Yes. Core features are free: scanning, text recognition, search, sharing and folders, with no ads, no account, no watermark and no page limit. Kopi Scan Pro is an optional one-time upgrade that adds more tools.
Is there a subscription?
No. Kopi Scan Pro is an optional one-time upgrade: you pay once, and there is nothing to renew or cancel.
Does it work offline?
Core scanning, text reading, search and saving work offline, even in Airplane Mode; when you’re offline, the app shows “Offline — scanning and your documents still work”. Buying Pro and Google’s scanner module need a connection the first time.
Are documents uploaded to the cloud?
Kopi Scan never uploads your documents. On Android, Kopi Scan has no internet permission. Your documents stay on your device unless you choose to share, export or back them up — and if you back up to a cloud folder, that cloud app uploads the encrypted file, not Kopi Scan.
Can I scan multiple pages?
Yes. Add as many pages as you need into one PDF — the app sets no page limit; your phone’s storage is the only limit. Before you save, you can reorder, retake or delete pages, and you can add pages later.
Which languages can Kopi Scan read?
Kopi Scan reads printed English, French and other languages written in the Latin alphabet. Other alphabets, such as Arabic or Chinese, are not read, and handwriting is not read by the free text reader.
Paper in. Clear, private PDFs out.
