How to convert a photo of a document to PDF on iPhone
Plenty of paperwork gets photographed in a hurry: a receipt at the counter, a form someone texted you, a whiteboard of notes. You can still turn those photos into proper scans, cropped to the page and saved as a PDF.

Open Tools › Import photos
Choose one photo or several. To import from Files instead, use Import a file, which also takes PDFs and images.

Let ScanMojo find the page
Each photo is cropped to the page it contains and flattened so the corners are square. Adjust the crop if it picked the wrong edges.

Choose a look
Auto whitens the paper and darkens the text. Original keeps the photo's colors if they matter.

Save and share as PDF
Several photos become one multipage document. Tap Share › PDF to send it.
Getting the best from an old photo
The more of the page the photo shows, the better the result: ScanMojo needs to see the page's edges to square it up. A photo taken straight on beats one taken at a steep angle, but both can be corrected.
Screenshots and images saved from email work the same way.
