You Don't Need Third-Party Apps To Scan Documents Anymore, WhatsApp Alone Will Be Enough

This new feature marks a major advancement for WhatsApp, especially for users who need to share documents quickly while on the move.

WhatsApp has introduced a new feature aimed at simplifying document sharing, enabling users to scan documents directly within the app. This functionality, included in the latest WhatsApp for iOS update (version 24.25.80), is smoothly integrated into the document-sharing menu. With this enhancement, users can quickly scan documents using their device's camera, eliminating the need for third-party scanning tools or apps.

The said feature is being rolled out gradually, with more users expected to have access in the coming weeks, according to the latest WhatsApp changelog shared by WABetaInfo.

WhatsApp Scanning: How To Use

To use it, WhatsApp users simply open the document-sharing menu and click on the "scan" option, which will activate the camera. Once the document is captured, users can preview the scan and make necessary adjustments. The app automatically suggests margins, but users have the option to fine-tune them for the best framing and clarity. Once satisfied with the scan, users can easily confirm and send the document directly to a chat or group, making the entire process smooth and efficient.

This new feature marks a major advancement for WhatsApp, especially for users who need to share documents quickly while on the move. By eliminating the need to switch between different apps, it offers a seamless solution for capturing, editing, and sending scanned documents all within the app.

First reported by WABetaInfo as part of the WhatsApp iOS 24.25.80 update, this feature has been gradually refined and expanded. By integrating it into the document-sharing menu, WhatsApp is enhancing its role as a comprehensive platform for communication and document exchange. As the feature becomes more widely available, it will save users time and reduce reliance on third-party applications, making document sharing faster and more efficient.
