Google Drive Comes With An Integrated Document Scanner This Is How It Operates

For a while now, Android users of Google Drive have had the ability to scan documents and store them as PDFs. But the tech behemoth now made this option available to iOS users as well. For more than ten years, the capability was accessible on Android smartphones, and in November 2023, the tech giant upgraded the document scanner with a few additional capabilities. However users of iPads and iPhones were not presented with the same choice.

According to sources, iOS users will soon be able to rapidly scan documents and upload them to their libraries using Google Drive.
