It works with flatbed and automatic document feeder scanners and provides configurable device options. Scanned pages can be reordered, rotated, or deleted before saving. The application exports multi-page scans as PDF documents and can save image files; OCR is included. KDE lists Skanpage under the GPL-2.0+ license. Linux installation is available through AppStream application stores or a distribution package manager, with a Flathub link. KDE provides links to the source code, bug-reporting page, and a community discussion forum. Its software privacy policy says software generally does not transmit information from a user’s device unless an explicit action occurs.
