ScanCrypt — a 70+ tool PDF suite, built solo
- The problem
- Document scanners on Android routinely upload your files to someone else’s cloud and lock basics behind subscriptions. The brief: a scanner and full PDF toolbox that works entirely offline, with no account.
- The build
- Native Kotlin with Jetpack Compose. Every tool — scanning, OCR, editing, signing, compression, AES encryption, redaction — runs on-device. Concept to Play Store in 60 days, then continuous releases grew it past 70 tools.
- Where it stands
- Live on Google Play, rated 4.8★ (checked Oct 2026). Zero document uploads: the airplane-mode test passes — switch the network off and the document tools work exactly the same.
