pdf scanner app with ocr and face id lock
As of iOS 18 / iOS 26, there is no native iOS feature to add a password or Face ID lock to an individual PDF file in the Files app — Apple's Files app does not expose per-file encryption. A practical built-in workaround: save the PDF into a Note in the Notes app, then lock that note (tap ··· → Lock Note) using Face ID or device passcode; this hides the PDF within a Face ID-protected note, though the PDF file itself outside Notes remains unprotected.

As of iOS 18 / iOS 26, there is no native iOS feature to add a password or Face ID lock to an individual PDF file in the Files app — Apple's Files app does not expose per-file encryption. A practical built-in workaround: save the PDF into a Note in the Notes app, then lock that note (tap ··· → Lock Note) using Face ID or device passcode; this hides the PDF within a Face ID-protected note, though the PDF file itself outside Notes remains unprotected. True file-level PDF password encryption — the kind that travels with the file and asks for a password in any viewer — requires a third-party app; many dedicated scanner and PDF apps offer this, plus an in-app Face ID vault that locks all stored documents behind biometric authentication.

Seçmeden önce nelere dikkat edilmeli
- iOS has no native per-file PDF password feature in the Files app (as of iOS 18/26)
- Notes app workaround: embed PDF in a locked Note — protects it within Notes via Face ID, but not the file itself
- Third-party apps can add AES-256 password encryption directly into the PDF file (portable protection)
- In-app Face ID vaults (common in dedicated scanner apps) lock all stored documents behind biometrics
- A file-level password is portable — it travels with the PDF and is enforced in any compliant viewer on any platform

FAQ
If I lock a Note containing a PDF on iPhone, is the PDF protected if I share it?
No. Locking the Note only restricts access within the Notes app on that device. If you export or share the PDF file itself (e.g., via AirDrop or email), the recipient receives an unprotected file — there is no password embedded in it.
What encryption standard do PDF password-protection apps typically use?
PDF 1.7 and later support 256-bit AES encryption (owner and user password). This is the standard used by Adobe Acrobat, PDF Expert, and most dedicated apps. It is considered computationally secure for practical purposes.
Does Face ID locking an app protect my scanned documents if someone gets my passcode?
Face ID app-level lock in most apps falls back to the device passcode as a backup. Anyone who knows your device passcode can bypass an app's Face ID gate unless the app implements its own independent passphrase separate from the device passcode.
