Read PDFs and Documents
PDFs and scans open right in SilentBox, page after page, without leaving the vault.
- In an album, tap the document's thumbnail.
- Scroll up and down through the pages. Pinch to zoom in.
- Tap the page once to hide the title and buttons. Tap again to bring them back.
- If the document has recognized text, tap Text at the top left to read it as plain text. You can select and copy it there.
- When you're done, tap Close (the X at the top left).
Your scans are PDFs, so they open the same way.
SilentBox shows PDFs only. Other kinds of documents, such as Word files or spreadsheets, show a badge with their file type — DOCX, XLSX and so on — both in the album and when you open them. They stay safely encrypted in the vault; to read them, export them to another app.
TipMore (the three dots at the top right) has Details, where you can rename the document and give it an expiration date — see Expiring documents.
