Why fax from Android

  • No app install needed, runs in any Android browser
  • Camera scan via Google Drive or third-party apps
  • Cloud integration (Drive, Dropbox, OneDrive) for PDF upload
  • Google Pay for one-tap payment
  • Works on any Android device including older phones and budget tablets

Scanning paper with Android

Android does not have a built-in OS-level scanner like iOS Notes. Use:

  • Google Drive scanner: Open Drive, tap "+", "Scan". Auto-crop, multi-page
  • Samsung Notes (Galaxy): New note, tap camera, "Document"
  • Adobe Scan or Microsoft Office Lens: Free third-party apps
  • CamScanner or Genius Scan: Popular alternatives

Save scanned PDF to local storage or Drive, then upload to Faxend.

  • Avoid JPEG when possible: Scan to PDF (Drive scanner does this) for cleaner form lines
