Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Do I need to install any mobile apps to scan documents?

No. The scanner runs directly inside your mobile or desktop web browser using the standard WebRTC MediaDevices API.

Does OmniTool Hub save my camera photos on a server?

Can I capture multi-page documents in one session?

Yes. Click Capture for each page, review thumbnails, delete any blurry shots, and click Compile PDF when finished.

What resolution should my camera have for good scan quality?

Any standard 1080p (2MP) or higher smartphone camera produces crystal-clear 300 DPI text scans.
