A quick guide to get you up and running with providing your records to us digitally.
SCANNING APPS 
There are now hundreds of apps that allow you to scan from directly from your smartphone to email or cloud storage.
Here’s some of our tried and tested favourites:
GOOGLE DRIVE
If you have a Google drive account you can actually use the app to scan directly to a folder of your choosing. Whilst not the best performing scanner it does give you a quick and free option that’s handy if you already use google drive for cloud storage.
Google Drive – google play store
Google Drive – apple app store
SCANBOT
One of the most popular scanning apps available on Android and iOS. Whilst there is a pro version of the app available, the free version does the job just fine.

NOTEBLOC
Our current favourite app of choice for mobile scanning. This free app seems to auto crop (remove the background around your paperwork) better than then other apps. This allows for faster scanning of bulk paperwork as you’re not constantly readjusting the crop lines. Once finished scanning you scan export all the scanned pages as one document in PDF format and email the file straight over to us.

If you save your files to a Google drive folder you can share the whole folder with us by following the steps instructions:

If your file is larger than your email providers limit you could use a file transfer solution such as Firefox Send. Firefox Send let’s you share files with end to end encryption and a link that automatically expires.
