Frequently Asked Questions
Is Genius Scan safe to use?
Genius Scan's paid tiers sync documents to cloud storage, and the app requires camera and storage permissions on your phone. MiOffice processes scans privately in your browser — your documents are never shared or stored.
Why switch from Genius Scan to MiOffice?
Genius Scan's free version can't export to PDF — that requires the $2.99 upgrade. MiOffice scans documents with edge detection, perspective correction, and multi-page PDF export — all at no cost, no app required.
Is MiOffice really free with no limits?
Yes. Document scanning on MiOffice is completely free with no paywall for PDF export, no scan limits, and no account required.
