Piego for iPhone · Updated 15 November 2026

Piego support

Scan a document, check the pages and keep them in your iPhone’s library. Here are the essentials, and how to reach us. The app interface is in Italian: the Italian command names are given in quotes.

Scan and save a document

1. In Documenti tap «Scansiona», the green button at the bottom, and allow camera access.
2. Frame the page with all its edges visible. When it is steady Piego takes the shot by itself: the phone vibrates and the preview flashes briefly. You can also use the shutter button.
3. Move on to the other pages, then tap «Fine».
4. In the review check the crop, orientation and filter of each page, then tap «Salva documento».

The automatic shot is slow or the edge is wrong

Light the page evenly, avoid reflections and leave some of the table visible around the edges: white paper on a dark table crops better than on a white one. The timer menu sets how long the page must stay still before the shot: «Subito», «Rapido», 1 s or 3 s. In the review you can always fix the crop with «Ritaglia».

Crop, filters and text

In the review use «Ritaglia» to move the corners, «Ruota» to turn the page and one of the six filters: Foto, Naturale, Colore, Lavagna, B/N or Scontrino. «Testo» shows the recognized text. Check numbers, dates and names before reusing it: recognition can make mistakes.

Import photos and files

Next to «Scansiona» are the buttons to import from Files and from Photos. If you pick more than one item, Piego asks whether to make one document, with the pages in the order you picked them, or separate documents.

Share or save a PDF

Use «Condividi PDF» in the review or «Condividi» on a filed document, then choose the app or place, for example Save to Files. Sharing a copy and saving the document in the library are separate: to find it again in Piego, also tap «Salva documento».

Automatic filing and copies

In Documenti tap ••• («Opzioni archivio») and choose «Archiviazione automatica». There are 29 ready-made rules («Regole pronte») in Italian, English, French and German: each starts paused, and «Prova» shows which documents it would file before you turn it on. Piego can also save a copy of each PDF by itself to a folder in Files, iCloud Drive included, or to your own WebDAV server.

Find or delete a document

Search the library by name or by a word of the recognized text. You can sort documents into folders and with tags. To delete one, swipe its row to the left or touch and hold it, choose «Elimina» and confirm with «Elimina documento». Copies you already exported stay where you saved them.

Piego Pro: edit, sign, fill in and redact

In Documenti tap ••• and choose «Editor PDF»; a filed document opens with «Modifica PDF». Without a subscription the Piego Pro screen opens with the two plans. In the editor:

• «Testi»: tap a line on the page, change the text and tap «Applica».
• «Firma»: draw your signature and initials once, place them on the page and resize them.
• «Compila»: fills in the form fields; «I miei dati» keeps your details on the phone and suggests them in the right fields. On forms without fields Piego suggests the ones it finds.
• «Oscura»: «Cerca» finds a word on every page, «Riquadro» covers an area. «Oscura» makes a copy in which those details are gone; the original document does not change.

Subscribe, restore or cancel Piego Pro

Piego Pro costs CHF 3 a month or CHF 24 a year in Switzerland, with a free week for first-time subscribers. On another iPhone with the same Apple Account open the Piego Pro screen and tap «Ripristina acquisti» (Restore Purchases). To change plan or cancel, open iOS Settings, tap your name, then Subscriptions, and choose Piego, at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Payments are handled by Apple: ask for a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com.

The camera does not open

Open iOS Settings, find Piego and check the Camera permission. If the problem remains, close and reopen the app. Before deleting it, export the documents you want to keep.

Compatibility

Piego needs an iPhone with iOS 26 or later. For data, copies and backups read the privacy policy; the subscription rules are in the terms of use.
