Microsoft Lens makes scanning documents with your phone fast, clean, and incredibly convenient. Lens automatically detects the edges of a printed page, ensuring you capture only what matters. After snapping the image, you can fine-tune the corners for a perfect fit or add additional pages to build a multi-page scan.
Lens also includes a simple editing toolbar that lets you crop, annotate with ink, insert text, rotate the page, or apply filters to improve clarity. Once your scan looks right, you can name the file and choose from several saving options. Lens allows you to save to your phone’s photo gallery, export as a PDF, or send the document directly to OneDrive. You can even convert the scan to Word or PowerPoint formats using OCR, making your document fully editable.
Whether you’re archiving school flyers, managing work documents, or just cleaning up handwritten notes, Microsoft Lens delivers crisp, readable results with just a few taps—turning your phone into a powerful pocket scanner. Check out my video tutorial below to learn how to use Microsoft Lens. 😎
