We’ve been “scanning” documents ever since they put cameras on smartphones. Taking a quick photo of a bill, receipt, contract, or any other paperwork has always been an option, but then real scanner apps starting appearing on iPhone and Android -- apps that attempt to replicate what physical scanners can do.
The resulting documents appear in black and white, making it easier to handle them later. Scanning apps can produce better results than photographing the document. You won’t have to deal with a photo that might need retouching. Not to mention photos of documents usually require some resizing.
The iPhone has a documents scanner built into the Notes app, which you can use directly from the Mac if you have both devices. Android phones have a scanner hidden in Google Drive as well if you know your way around the app. But Google just released a document scanner app for Android that might be more useful and intuitive than the defaults.
