Hello everyone, I have a few old pictures I was hoping to get scanned onto my phone, I know that Photo Scan by Google does a good job, but I was hoping for a libre alternative to use first. Would anyone know of any?

Worst case scenario, I don't give Photo Scan internet access, but was still wondering what else is out there. Thanks!

I don't know if it's open source but https://apps.apple.com/no/app/ocr-scanner-quickscan/id1513790291?l=nb is at least free, no ads and don't collect data

This is the one I use and it’s awesome. Allows you to upload to nextcloud or most other providers.
