Send Faxes From Your Smartphone! (October 12, 2020)

Surprise: How to fax from your smartphone!

If I told you how many clients still maintain a separate (paid) Verizon phone line for their fax machine which is only used occasionally ... The only people faxing these days really is government or doctors' offices it seems.

Recently, I learned some great tricks my iPhone can do:

1. I installed the Microsoft Office app and used the "Lens" feature to capture a document that I wanted to scan & fax. The "Lens" feature scans much better than taking a standard picture.

2. Then, I installed the FaxBurner app. This cool app allows me to send & receive faxes.  So, for the occasional faxing need -- such as my kids forgot their homework in school -- this is a lifesaver.  I do grant you that most people now-a-days prefer to e-mail attachments, but this provides more options to get the job done.
