Scan docs in notes.

How do you scan docs in notes? I can’t see the little camera icon just above the keyboard that enables you to scan doc.


In fact I see no other options like highlight etc.


How do get the options to appear just above the keyboard? In particular the camera icon so I can scan docs?

iPhone 11, iOS 13

Here's a very short YouTube video by Apple on how to do it, although this looks like it's for a previous iOS version: How to scan documents on your iPhone with the Notes app


Here's a support article, this looks like it's up to date: How to scan documents on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using the Notes app


I can see the camera icon on my iPhone running iOS 13.6 in the Notes app after creating a new note. If you can't see that bar with the camera icon above the keyboard, maybe there's a + sign above the keyboard to the right that you need to tap to expand it.
