I agree, but what’s the solution then? Creating a new app doing the same job? Or writing a tutorial to explain how to use the native scanner?

Move it out of the Files app. Nobody uses Files, Apple seemingly doesn't want you to use Files. Clearly not a priority though.

Pressing and holding the Files icon on the iOS home screen allows you to directly access the scanning feature.

Pretty handy! I didn’t know this feature existed, and the scanner app I had been using stopped working a couple months ago and I haven’t been able to find a replacement that I was happy with.

On the latest iOS update, searching for the Files app also returns a shortcut to the scanner. Weirdly, searching for "scan" or similar doesn't return it... The icon is similar in design to the control centre so you'd think it could be added there, but again, it's unavailable...

You need to type "scan d" for it to work. It's funny how both Windows and iOS manage to struggle with pretty basic search functionality.

What else would you use? I use it quite often.

Same, but to answer your question: Notes app also has scanning.
