How to Fax from Android Phone or Tablet?

Yes, you can. Fax.Plus allows you to send a fax directly from your Android phone, turning it into a mobile fax machine.

Use the Android app when you want to scan paper, attach files, and check fax status in one place. You can also use a mobile browser, or email-to-fax with a paid Fax.Plus plan. Choose the method that fits where your document is stored and whether you want to install an app.

Yes. The Fax.Plus Android app is free to download. A Free account includes 10 sending pages once after mobile number verification. This allowance does not renew monthly. You can buy additional sending pages without a subscription or choose a paid plan. Receiving faxes requires a paid plan with a dedicated fax number.

Yes. Open the Fax.Plus web app in your Android browser, sign in, enter the recipient’s fax number, and attach your document. You still need a Fax.Plus account and an internet connection. Your account’s sending allowance and destination restrictions apply whether you use the browser or Android app.

Fax.Plus protects stored fax documents with 256-bit AES encryption and unique encryption keys for each user. Before sending sensitive paperwork, verify the recipient’s fax number and follow your organization’s document-handling requirements.

Using a Samsung phone? With Fax.Plus, the process is identical. Install the app from the Google Play Store, follow the in-app instructions to upload your document, and fax it with just a few taps. Experience hassle-free faxing on your Samsung device with Fax.Plus.

In the Fax.Plus Android app, open Send Fax and tap Add File to attach the PDF from your phone or Google Drive. Enter the recipient’s fax number, check that all pages and any filled form fields appear correctly, then send. Keep the confirmation once the fax reports a successful result.

Yes, you can send to supported international fax destinations from the Android app. Enter the full fax number, including the country and area code. Destination rates and restrictions vary, so check the applicable sending requirements before you send. Some destinations require a paid plan.

Check the fax status in your Fax.Plus account or email notification. A successful result confirms transmission to the receiving fax system, not that a person has read or processed the document. If the fax fails, review the error and verify the fax number before retrying. For a busy or unavailable line, wait before trying again or use Auto Retry on Failure. If a successful fax cannot be located, share the sending time and confirmation details with the recipient.

Yes. You need an active paid Fax.Plus plan, a dedicated fax number, and available page allowance. Share that fax number with the sender, then open incoming documents in the app’s Inbox. Your regular mobile phone number does not automatically become a fax number, and the Free plan does not receive faxes.

Fax.Plus supports HIPAA-compliant workflows on the Enterprise plan with a signed Business Associate Agreement and activated Advanced Security Controls. The Android app alone does not make an account HIPAA compliant. Set up these requirements before your organization uses Fax.Plus to handle protected health information.
