Scanning documents and images can be a a faff requiring specific apps and devices, which is why a new update to the Files by Google app could be a boon.
Spotted by Android tipster Mishaal Rahman, the latest update for Files by Google, a free file management app built into some Android devices, allows users to scan things like documents, images of passports with a quick tap of a new 'Scan' button in the app. This then opens up a phone's camera app, letting you line up the document as you see fit and then scan it manually or rely on an auto-capture function.
