What is Foldio?
Foldio is a document scanner and PDF editor for Android, built as a privacy-first alternative to CamScanner and Microsoft Lens.
Unlike CamScanner ($5–10/month) and Adobe Scan ($9.99/month), Foldio is free forever with a one-time Pro unlock that removes all limits.
Key features:
- Scan documents with ML Kit's automatic edge detection — no camera permission required in the app
- OCR: extract and search text in any scan, all on-device
- Non-destructive editing: crop, rotate, brightness, contrast — fully reversible, zero quality loss
- Electronic signatures and text/highlight annotations
- Folders to organise your library
- Optional Google Drive backup (your account only — Foldio servers never involved)
- Export to PDF (with searchable text layer) or plain text
- "Open with Foldio" — appears in the Android share chooser for any PDF file
Privacy:
- No account required
- No analytics, no tracking, no crash reporters
- All processing on-device
- Files stored in app-private storage, automatically deleted on uninstall
