Hey trangvann - thanks for posting your question here and welcome to our Community.
You can now adjust your document's size and quality using the new "save quality" slider bar on iOS mobile devices. To do this, follow the steps below:
On iOS mobile devices:
1. From the Edit screen, tap the icon with the three sliders at the bottom of the screen.
2. Edit the area of your scanned document by moving the blue dots on each corner of the scan.
3. Under Filter, decide what format you want the scan in.
4. If desired, use the slider to adjust the contrast (this option is only available for the Black & White and Whiteboard filters).5. Use the "Save Quality" slider to adjust the quality/size of the document
5. When you're satisfied with your edits, tap Done.Let me know if you need anything else!
