It’s perfect! Do you guys already do this?

I open a letter, I take it’s picture with FairScan. The FairScan-folder on my android device gets syncthinged to the ingest folder for Paperless-ngx on my “server”. Paperless imports it, deletes the file and sets the new documents tag to inbox. I decide if the document goes to the binder for important stuff, or if I just toss it in a binder with all the paper I most likely will never touch again. Next time I look at Paperless, I edit all documents with the inbox tag and remove the tag.

    I haven’t used FairScan (yet!), how does it compare to OSS Document Scanner? Other than having a much much better name, obviously.

      I tried OSS Document Scanner a year ago but never really used it. It has way more features but I didn’t need any of them. With FairScan, you just take pictures, give them a name and save them either as a single PDF or a couple PNGs. Repeat if necessary.
