Paperless is not a document scanner. Its purpose is to manage documents after they've been scanned. The only scanning-related thing it does is OCR.
Paperless is not only a document scanner it also indexes them which is awesome
Does the client app have some advanced scanning capabilities, or what do you mean when you're calling "paperless" a document scanner?
I recently found out about this and I love it! Used to use paperwork for my scanning and archiving but paperless ngx is so much better.
Simple-scan does scanning to PDF out of the box. Scan in ten pages and you have them saved all in one PDF file. It can rotate pages as well. Installable as package for Ubuntu, Debian and Arch and probably more.
I guess you are looking for an android app? I use Oss Document Scanner, and I am relatively happy with it https://github.com/Akylas/OSS-DocumentScanner
