Do I need internet access to store documents in PrivateProScanner?
A constant internet connection is not required simply to keep documents inside PrivateProScanner.
The app is designed around local work with your document archive. Files and photos can remain on the device and be available without contacting a remote storage server every time.
That is useful when traveling, on a plane, in areas with unreliable coverage, or whenever you do not want document access to depend on connectivity.
Scanning, viewing locally stored files, and working with content already inside the app do not need to become cloud operations just because the app runs on a smartphone.
Some unrelated parts of the overall iPhone experience may still use internet access — for example App Store functions, subscription services, or an external sharing destination.
It is therefore important to distinguish between storing a file inside PrivateProScanner and sending it through a third-party service.
For sensitive documents, local availability also means the main archive can remain on the device until you make a conscious decision to export something.
PrivateProScanner is designed to work autonomously in the parts of the workflow where a cloud service is not required.
