BoxIt

The paper box that lives in your phone.

BoxIt is a digital paper box for receipts, manuals, warranty cards, contracts, and ID copies. Take a photo and BoxIt finds the paper's edges, corrects perspective, and files the sheet in a box. Find it later by name, date, note, or box. Everything stays on your device.

Features

Capture and file in one step

The camera detects the paper's four corners, corrects perspective, and removes the background. Photos from your library are processed on-device, and the original resolution is used for the final crop.

Multi-page documents

Capture several pages of a manual in one session. All pages stay in a single sheet, and you can swipe through them in the detail view or in full screen.

Boxes that open like drawers

Name your own boxes — receipts, manuals, contracts, IDs, your child's drawings — and switch between them like pulling open a drawer.

Find it again

Search by sheet name or note, filter by today, this week, or this month, or filter by box. Results are grouped by date.

Reminders for the things you forget (Pro)

Set local reminders for warranties, filter replacements, or inspections. Repeat once, daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly. Notifications arrive even when the app is in the background or your phone is locked.

On-device only

No account, no cloud sync, no ads, no analytics SDK. Export a backup to the Files app whenever you want, and import it on a new device.

Who it is for

  • People with piles of paper and no reliable way to find it
  • Manuals, warranty cards, receipts, contracts, and ID copies
  • Renters, renovators, and small-shop owners who do not want a scanner

Who it is not for

  • Expense reporting, reimbursement, or bookkeeping
  • OCR text search — sheet names are entered by hand
