## What it is
Paperless Mobile is a Flutter-based mobile client for the paperless-ngx document management system, available on Android and iOS. It lets users view, edit, search, scan, and upload documents from their smartphone with features like biometric authentication and a dedicated processing inbox.

## Use cases
- manage paperless-ngx documents from my phone
- scan and upload paper documents to paperless
- search and filter documents in paperless on mobile
- upload files to paperless via Android share sheet
- secure my document app with biometric login
- process new documents in an inbox on mobile
- switch between multiple paperless users on my phone

## When to choose
- you self-host paperless-ngx and want a native mobile experience
- you need on-the-go document scanning and uploading
- mobile browser access to paperless feels slow or tedious
- you want biometric-protected access to your documents

## When to avoid
- you don't use paperless-ngx as your document management server
- you need a desktop or web client
- you require a fully complete feature set - it is 'almost' fully fledged
