How to fax from an Android phone
Faxing from Android works the same way as from a computer: you upload a document, enter a fax number, and we deliver it to the fax machine on the other end.
Scan the paper first
Most Android phones can scan to PDF. In Google Drive, tap + then Scan. Some camera apps also offer a document mode. Save the result as a PDF.

If a fax fails
Faxes can fail when the other line is busy or a person answers instead of a fax machine. The Outbox shows failed faxes and lets you retry. You can also set automatic retries in your settings.
