Read incoming faxes in email
Open the PDF attached to the incoming-fax email. The fax also appears in your FaxCan Inbox, which you can open from a computer or phone browser.
FaxCan writes short summaries of documents and incoming faxes. Summaries are deleted with the document unless you turn on keeping them.
Share the office Inbox
Office and Locations include team seats. Owners and admins can invite teammates within their plan’s limit. The team shares an Inbox, and each person sees their own sent faxes.
Keep the PDF where you keep your records
We email you the PDF, then delete our copy and the carrier’s copy within 24 hours at most. Save the emailed PDF if you need to refer to it later.
