Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1: Are my scanned documents and personal data safe?
Yes, absolutely. DocScan Ultra processes everything locally using your device's browser memory (HTML5 Canvas). Your documents never leave your phone or computer.
Q2: Why is the camera not opening on my browser?
Ensure that your website has an SSL certificate enabled (https://) and that you have granted camera permissions in your browser's site settings.
Q3: What should I do if the scanned text looks blurry?
Ensure adequate lighting when taking the photo and keep your camera steady. Using the "Magic Doc" filter will automatically sharpen text contrast for enhanced readability.
