Frequently asked questions
- Does the camera feed get uploaded anywhere?
- No. The camera stream is accessed with the browser's WebRTC API and stays local to your device; the captured still frame is processed in-browser too.
- Will it automatically detect the edges of my document?
- The current version captures the frame as-is; automatic edge detection and perspective correction are on the roadmap.
- Does this work on desktop as well as mobile?
- Yes, if your device has a camera and your browser supports the getUserMedia API, which includes all current major browsers.
