Automatically delete a document after export

Export shortcuts/destinations and auto-export rules can be configured to delete your documents after export automatically.

iOS

1. Go to Settings and tap Export.

1. Select an existing shortcut or auto-export rule, or tap Add shortcut… or tap Add rule... and log into an account if needed.

1. Activate Delete document on success.

Android

1. Go to Settings and tap Export.

1. Select an existing destination or tap Add destination.

1. Activate Delete document on success.

Some things to be careful about:

• The documents are deleted and cannot be recovered in Genius Scan. Genius Scan only deletes the document when it has been successfully "sent". For Dropbox or similar cloud services, this means that Genius Scan received confirmation that the file was properly uploaded; for e-mail, this means that the document was dropped in the Mail's app outbox. If the Mail app has any issue sending it, Genius Scan isn't made aware of it.

• If you have multiple auto-export destinations configured, Genius Scan will execute all the ones without auto-delete first, but only one with auto-delete will be executed. As soon as it's executed, the document will be deleted and unavailable for subsequent export. We do not recommend configuring multiple auto-export destinations with auto-delete.
