What you'll need

How to Fax a 1099 Form from iPhone 15: Step-by-Step

  1. 1

    Download TigerFax

    Install TigerFax from the App Store on your iPhone 15. It's free to start — no credit card required.

    💡 Tip: TigerFax is optimized for iOS 17+ and works on all iPhones running iOS 15 or later.

  2. 2

    Scan your 1099 Form with iPhone 15

    Open TigerFax and tap the camera icon. Position your iPhone 15 about 12 inches above the 1099 Form and let the auto-capture detect the edges. The iPhone 15's 48MP camera is a significant upgrade for document scanning. Text that was previously blurry on older iPhones is now crisp and legible, even on small-print documents like contracts.
