That is why it is not only clever to digitize such documents, but it is necessary. The digital storage of my certificates ensures that they are never lost and are safely stored, and can be shared when required.

I had a personal document organizer in my pocket. DocIt makes the management of documents a lot easier, no matter whether you are a student, a working professional, or manage family records.
Scan with Iphone
I clicked on DocIt and on the scan document option. I took a clear image of my marksheet with the help of my phone camera.
DocIt, a built-in document scanner, did the rest; it automatically identified the edges, increased the clarity, and transformed the image into a high-quality and sharp scan in the form of a PDF file.
I could crop, rotate, and modify the brightness to ensure that everything was readable. After I was satisfied with the answer, I saved it as a PDF. My scanned PDF is secured and now ready to share or back up documents.
DocIt makes it accurate and easy-going, whether I am scanning a certificate, ID card, or warranty slip.

My document fell under the category of Education Documents after scanning. The document organizer at DocIt simplified the creation of folders such as 10th Marksheet, 12th Certificate, and College Records.
In this manner, I will be able to locate what I need fast without having to go through heaps of files. I also tagged and made notes, and used the expiry tracker to remind myself about the certificates with renewal dates.
Warranty tracker of DocIt was handy in handling documents that had to be completed within a time frame. Having all documents digitally organized has enabled me to be on top of one deadline and ensured that I do a better job of managing family documents.
