Google Drive for iPhone and iPad lets you scan documents directly to the cloud - here's how the new feature works.

Say goodbye to your standalone scanner. Discover the simple way to capture and save documents as PDFs in Google Drive with your iPhone or Android phone.

To scan documents, open WhatsApp on your iPhone, go to the chat, click the plus (+) icon, select Document, and tap Scan Document. You can add up to 24 pages into a single document.
