Summary
Yes: Safari, Chrome, any mobile browser will do, with nothing to install. Open the site, drop in a PDF, a photo or a file stored in the phone's memory or in your cloud space, then fill in the form as a computer would.
The browser handles everything
As long as no app store, no update, and no permission are needed, Faxeroo runs inside the web page. The interface resizes to fit the display width, and the file selection opens the same way whether you choose the phone's storage, iCloud Drive, Dropbox, or Google Drive.
Digitising a paper sheet properly
No point settling for a photo. The iPhone's Files app, in the Browse tab then the "…" menu, can digitise a page: edges detected, perspective corrected, PDF produced. On Android, "Scan" is obtained via the "+" button in Google Drive, with an identical result. Prefer the black-and-white rendering — the printer on the other end will only produce monochrome in any case.
Place the document flat on a dark background, close to a window, with the device parallel to the paper. Thirty seconds of care prevents a greyish fax on arrival.
The journey, at your fingertips
Select the country, type the correspondent's number, fill in identity, email address, subject and a word for the cover page, then attach the PDF. The confirmation email is not slow to arrive: activate its link within three minutes. A brief countdown follows, still cancellable, then the fax sets off and its status scrolls on screen.
Your phone sends faxes, but receives none
Your phone lets you send faxes, never receive them. To get faxes back, plan for a fax machine on a fixed line or a specialised reception service: a mobile number cannot act as the destination, whatever the setup.
Key points
- No app: everything goes through the phone's browser.
- Digitising: Files app on iPhone, Google Drive on Android.
- Monochrome is the rule, sheet laid flat, clear light.
- Only a landline can receive, never a mobile.
