Photos from the past, meet scanner from the future.

PhotoScan is an app from Google Photos that lets you scan and save your favorite printed photos using your phone’s camera.

PICTURE PERFECT AND GLARE FREE
Don’t just take a picture of a picture. Create enhanced digital scans, wherever your photos are.
– Get glare-free scans with an easy step-by-step capture flow
– Automatic cropping based on edge detection
– Straight, rectangular scans with perspective correction
– Smart rotation, so your photos stay right-side-up no matter which way you scan them

SCAN IN SECONDS
Capture your favorite printed photos quickly and easily, so you can spend less time editing and more time looking at your bad childhood haircut.

For documents and photos in glare-free environments, toggle off glare removal for even faster scans.

SAFE AND SEARCHABLE WITH GOOGLE PHOTOS
Back up your scans with the Google Photos app to keep them safe, searchable, and organized. Bring your scans to life with movies, filters, and advanced editing controls. And share them with anyone, just by sending a link.

The app itself is fine I think but.... Permissions given during use of the app. But after closing the app it continues in the background and can only be completely stopped with a force stop from settings. What's the use of giving permission only during use of the app when it's automatically forced on always active????

Outdated app for the AI era. Manually clicking 4 corners to scan a single photo is frustrating and time-consuming. Google should either update it with automatic AI scanning or remove it from the Play Store.
