Assuming you are discussing the new "full body" scanners at the airports...

YES, but a very very small amount.

You get a SMALL dose of ionizing radiation from using the machine. It doesn't make you radioactive and glow in the dark though.

Is the Xray App for phones true?

No, for many reasons. Firstly xray images require a concentrated burst of radiation and a scanner that can read and interpret those signals. Secondly, if a phone could deliver bursts of x-ray radiation, it could be used as a deadly weapon. Third, if for some reason it *did* have all of these features, it would kill the battery dead in less than a minute. So no, they're scams or photo filters applied over the video to make it look legitimate.
