## Description

Photos from the past, meet scanner from the future. PhotoScan by Google Photos lets you scan and save printed photos with your phone’s camera, delivering glare-free, high-quality digital copies through an easy, step-by-step capture flow.

Automatic edge-detection crops, straight, rectangular scans with perspective correction, and smart rotation ensure your photos stay right-side-up. For speed, you can toggle off glare removal, then back up scans to Google Photos so they’re safe, searchable, and organized, and share them with a link or within Google Photos. You can also enhance with movies and edits using Google Photos to bring your scanned memories to life.
