A desk drawer for paper

Paper in. PDF out.

Point the camera at a lease, a receipt, a page you need to keep. VellumTap files a clean PDF on this phone — no cloud folder, no watermark, no monthly rent on your own paperwork.

  • Pay once if you want the rest
Three pages free

Keep a starter drawer. The fourth scan asks for a one-time unlock.

Direct from the desk

Install the scanner. Skip the store.

The APK lives on this site. Android will ask you to allow installs from the browser — that is normal when an app does not go through Google. Full install steps.

The problem

Most scanners rent you your own paper.

You wanted a file. You got an account, a watermark, and a subscription that locks the page the month you cancel.

A camera with a monthly bill

$4–$10 a month to digitise a lease. VellumTap is $20 once, then the drawer is yours.

Contracts in someone else’s cloud

A private page should not need a login. Scan, OCR, and PDF stay on the device.

A stamp on the fourth page

Free keeps three clean files. Unlocking removes the cap. No watermark, ever.

Questions

Before the paper goes in

How do I get the app?

Download the Android APK from this site and install it on your phone. Chrome may warn that the file did not come from an app store — tap Download anyway, then Install. Full APK install steps.

Is this a subscription?

No. $20 NZD once unlocks the drawer on that phone. Nothing renews.

Why is this not on Google Play?

We sell and ship the app ourselves. You download the APK here, pay Stripe if you want the full drawer, and skip Play’s merchant delays and fees.

Android says the file may be harmful. Is that normal?

Yes, for any app installed outside Play. The warning is generic. Allow Chrome or Files to install unknown apps, then install VellumTap. The APK is signed by OwnForge.

I live outside New Zealand. What will I pay?

The price is set in NZD. Stripe converts it, so most overseas buyers pay less than $20 in their own currency.

Do I need an account?

No. The scanner opens without a login. Web checkout only needs payment details through Stripe.

Do documents leave my phone?

No. Scan, OCR, and PDF stay on device. The internet is only used for payment and unlock-code checks.

What if I lose the code?

Keep a screenshot or email yourself the success page. If you paid and lost the code, contact OwnForge with your Stripe receipt.

Ready

Put the paper away.

Download free. Unlock the drawer once. Nothing through Google Play.
