Documents are processed and stored on the phone unless explicitly exported, and access can be protected with Face ID, Touch ID, or a PIN. Export options include Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, OneDrive, Evernote, WebDAV, FTP, and others. Genius Cloud offers unlimited cloud storage, backup, syncing, storage savings, and web access. Automatic export can run in the background and route documents according to rules. Ultra costs $39.99 a year. Team features include centralized license management and consolidated annual billing; a BAA is available with Genius Scan Team for organizations needing HIPAA-aligned handling.
