Pixel phone owners are in for an exciting update that will enhance their user experience. Google is introducing a document scanner feature to the Files by Google app, making it easier to digitize documents right from your device. This new addition comes as part of a server-side update, so there’s no need to download a new version of the app.

Here’s what you can expect from the document scanner feature:
– Simply tap on the “Scan” button located at the bottom right corner of the app to start scanning your documents using the rear camera of your Pixel phone.
– Choose between auto-capturing or manually defining the scan area for more control.
– Fine-tune your scans by cropping, rotating, cleaning, and adding filters for a polished finish.
– Your scanned documents will be saved as PDF files in a new “Scanned” folder within the app.

This document scanner feature is similar to the one found in the Google Drive app. It processes documents directly on your device, providing a seamless experience for users.

If you’re a Pixel device owner, be sure to check if this handy addition has rolled out to your device yet. Google has also recently released the March 2024 software update for Pixels, along with the March ’24 Pixel Feature Drop. This update includes bug fixes, enhancements, improvements to Call Screen and social media features, and new AI capabilities like Circle to Search.
