About Archivia: Document Scanner
Archivia turns your phone into a document archive you can actually search.
Point at a page: the edges are found automatically, the page is straightened and the text becomes searchable. Search "bill" or "IBAN" and the document turns up, even if you never renamed it.
A NAME THAT SAYS WHAT IT IS
Once the text is read, Archivia gives the document a sensible name, like "ID card Mario Rossi" or "Bill Energia Chiara – October 2026". If you rename it yourself, your name stays.
YOUR PERSONAL DOCUMENTS, NEATLY LAID OUT
ID cards, driving licences, passports and health cards get a Details tab: name, tax code, number, issue and expiry dates, each one copyable with a tap and editable by hand. When a document has expired or expires soon, you see it on the thumbnail.
LOYALTY CARDS, ALWAYS READY
Scan your supermarket card: Archivia reads the barcode and redraws it sharp, with the screen at full brightness for the checkout scanner.
ORGANISED WITHOUT EFFORT
- Ready-made folders: personal documents, home, health, car, work, receipts
- Grid or list, pinch to choose how many columns you see
- Pin documents to the top, sort by date or name
SHARE ONLY WHAT'S NEEDED
- PDFs with searchable text, in three sizes (also for attachments with size limits)
- Just some pages, or JPG images
- Print, copy the text, or send to a nearby iPhone by bringing the phones together
TRULY PRIVATE
Scans, text and folders stay on this iPhone. Archivia has no account, doesn't use the internet and collects no data. Lock it with Face ID, and your documents stay hidden in the app switcher.
BACKUP
Export your whole archive as a .zip file with a PDF for each document, in its folders. New phone? Reopen it with "Import from Files".
Archivia speaks English, Italian, French, Spanish and German.
