    Thanks for asking as I was having a similar issue and it turns out at least on my iPhone, the delete button is in the top left hand side of the scanned page. It is not visible but it does work.

Hi Sy_wuly, thanks for messaging the Community!

Are you running the app in light or dark mode?

There should still be the circle on the top right of the individual pages in order to delete them from the current scan.

If you're not seeing this, screenshots showing what you're seeing would be helpful!

    Thank you for your reply, @Jay. I’ve first discovered this problem in light mode, however I’ve noticed that the problem persisted even in dark mode. Below are screenshots of the page I see during scanning.

     


    As shown in the screenshots, the ‘x’ button is not present.

    Again, thank you for your reply.

      Thanks for the images. If you swipe the images up ot down, does it delete it from the pages?

        No, but it magnifies the image, and upon tapping on the magnified image the screen reverts to normal.
