How do I scan a document into a note?

On iPhone, scan paper into your note so physical docs join the rest of your work.

Updated 2026-08-13 · iOS only

On iPhone, FabricLoop can scan a physical page with your camera and insert it straight into a note — no separate scanning app needed.

iOS only: Document scanning uses your camera and isn't available on Mac, Windows, Android, or web today.

Steps

  1. Open the note on your iPhone and place your cursor where the scan should go.
  2. Tap the attachment option and choose Scan document.
  3. Point your camera at the page — FabricLoop detects the edges and captures it automatically, or you can capture manually.
  4. Scan additional pages if needed, then confirm. FabricLoop turns the pages into a PDF and attaches it to the note.

Tips

  • Good lighting and a flat, contrasting background make edge detection much more reliable.
  • Once scanned, the PDF behaves like any other file attachment — it's included in search and visible to anyone with access to the note.
