Multiple capture paths
Bring documents in by scanning with the camera, importing from Photos or Files, or sharing from Mail. Multi-page support handles both single pages and longer documents.
Organize and search documents on iPhone and iPad
Afterpage is a document organizer for iPhone and iPad that focuses on making archived files easier to sort and retrieve. It combines capture, OCR search, and filing tools with an inbox-style workflow for documents you want to process later.
The app is built around Smart Organization, which learns how you categorize documents and suggests tags, document types, and contacts as you work. The site says it uses on-device processing, stores documents in iCloud Drive or locally, and requires no account to start.
Built for document capture, search, and filing
Inbox-based organizing
Use a quick Inbox workflow to scan now and sort later. Add tags, assign document types, and link contacts when you have time to file them properly.
Full-text search and filters
Search the text inside documents with on-device OCR powered by Apple Vision. You can also filter by tags, document types, and contacts.
Searchable PDF export
Export searchable PDFs with embedded text so files stay searchable when you share them by AirDrop, email, or Files.
iCloud sync with local option
Store documents in iCloud Drive and sync them across iPhone and iPad. The site also says you can choose local storage during setup.
Pattern-based suggestions
Let Smart Organization suggest tags, document types, and contacts based on your filing patterns, with improvements over time.
Common ways people use Afterpage
Personal records management
Scan receipts, warranties, and bills into an inbox, then sort them into tags and document types when you have time.
Contract and document lookup
Keep contracts and other reference files searchable so you can find a clause or name by text instead of browsing folders.
Tax and admin paperwork
