# Capture/Image Source

## How to scan documents on mobile devices?

> If you are looking to capture documents using mobile cameras, please see FAQ: [Do you support capturing documents from mobile cameras?](/_articles/faq/support-capture-from-mobile-camera.md)


The Dynamic Web TWAIN has introduced a [Remote Scan](https://www.dynamsoft.com/remote-scan/docs/introduction/) feature starting from version [18.2](/_articles/info/schedule/stable.html#remote-scan-1). It allows end users to access scanners of various protocols (TWAIN, SANE, ICA, eSCL, WIA) on the Intranet through any devices and any popular browsers, without any extra software installed.

# Capture/Image Source

## Do you support capturing documents from mobile camera?

Starting with Dynamic Web TWAIN v16.0, Dynamsoft has extended the SDK to mobile platforms to help developers easily integrate document capture functionality into mobile web applications. Users can capture images from their built-in camera and edit them in a web viewer on Android or iOS devices without installing any apps. The viewer allows users to manage the document uniformly across desktop and mobile editions.

See it in action by visiting this <a href="https://demo.dynamsoft.com/dynamic-web-twain/online-document-scanning.aspx" target="_blank">online demo</a>.
While Dynamic Web TWAIN has discontiued its support of using mobile cameras starting from version [18.1](/_articles/info/schedule/stable.html#181-01122023), we are introducing [Mobile Document Scanner](https://www.dynamsoft.com/use-cases/mobile-document-scanner/) for better performance and customizability.
