Hi, was wondering if anyone knew of an app where you can use your camera to scan documents (like Adobe Scan) which is FOSS.
OSS Document Scanner is great. It’s also available in the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repository: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.akylas.documentscanner
Wow foss apps are so clean, it blows my mind how one person can do it.

Yeah, I love it!
OSS Scanner on F-Droid
I’m not finding it, do you mean Open Note Scanner?
Weird, I have the Izzy repo and it doesn’t show up.
Thanks for the link!
This is a major issue with F-Droid. I can find this via a browser, but the F-Droid app doesn’t show it, even searching by name. It just doesn’t exist. It happens all the time, I’m not sure why it doesn’t show apps that I know are there.
G-Droid doesn’t show it either. :/
I can find it on Droidify no problem and after reading your comment, I also tried on F-droid app and I can see it there as well. Maybe you don’t have it configured properly.
It comes up if you type “oss” and look down, as “OSS Document Scanner.” But if you go past the oss like “oss sc-” it says it can’t be found (because you omitted “document”). My bet is this explains why he can’t find it.
https://github.com/pencilresearch/OpenScanner I have not used it. But saw it on alternativeto recently.
Looks like that’s for iOS?
Edit: Which is a cool find too, since I also have iOS devices.
woops sorry quite honestly I did see the iOS logo but because its on github its my first time seeing a project thats iOS only, with no android alternative thats also open source. Thought they also had a branch for android.
There is one called OpenScan that’s available for Android
Open Note Scanner?
Thanks, just checked it out and this seems good for my purposes.

I’ve been using docus (izzys fdroid repo) for some time and can recommend it.
Edit: it seems it’s no longer being maintained.
