## Description

Tired of limited subscription based scanners? Pay once. Own it forever. Unlimited offline OCR, a Smart Vault that files itself, and no account, no cloud, no ads.

Foliark scans your documents into searchable PDFs and files them by itself — all on your iPhone. No account, no cloud, no analytics. Pay once, or use it free forever.

WHY FOLIARK
• Unlimited text recognition (OCR) — free, on-device, no page limits
• Full-text search across every scan
• The Smart Vault files documents automatically by topic, date, sender, person, and type
• Nothing leaves your device — the App Store label reads "Data Not Collected"

SCANNING
• Automatic edge detection and capture, even in tricky light
• Crop, rotate, reorder, and filter pages
• ID-card mode: front and back on one page
• Import existing PDFs and photos

SIGN & MARK — free, and offline like everything else
• Draw your signature with a finger or Apple Pencil, or type it in a handwriting font
• Save signatures and initials once, then reuse them on any document — optionally behind Face ID
• Add text, dates, and check, cross or dot marks — place, resize and rotate anything freely
• Highlighter in five colours, plus a black marker that also removes the covered words from the searchable text and from the PDF's text layer
• Your marks stay editable: rotate or re-filter the scan afterwards and they follow the page
• Works on imported PDFs too

KEEP IT YOURS
• Searchable PDFs with an invisible text layer — readable in any app
• Encrypted backup (AES-256) you store wherever you like
• App lock with Face ID / Touch ID
• Available in English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, and Portuguese

FOLIARK PRO — one-time purchase, no subscription
• Combine scans into one PDF
• Protect PDFs with an AES-256 password
• Compress PDFs in place
• Export recognized text as .txt
• Batch actions across many documents

Everything essential is free — signing included. Pro is a single one-time unlock: no subscription, no ads, ever.
