In AWS SDKv2 you can scan table using AWSDynamoDBScanExpression, eg. iOS:

 AWSDynamoDBObjectMapper *dynamoDBObjectMapper = [AWSDynamoDBObjectMapper defaultDynamoDBObjectMapper];
 AWSDynamoDBScanExpression *scanExpression = [AWSDynamoDBScanExpression new];
 scanExpression.exclusiveStartKey = nil;
 scanExpression.limit = @20;
 [[[dynamoDBObjectMapper scan:[DDBTableRow class]
                   expression:scanExpression]
   continueWithExecutor:[BFExecutor mainThreadExecutor] withSuccessBlock:^id(BFTask *task) {...}

If you need a condition can use AWSDynamoDBCondition:

 AWSDynamoDBCondition *condition = [AWSDynamoDBCondition new];
 AWSDynamoDBAttributeValue *attribute = [AWSDynamoDBAttributeValue new];
 attribute.N = @"400";
 condition.attributeValueList = @[attribute];
 condition.comparisonOperator = AWSDynamoDBComparisonOperatorEQ;
 scanExpression.scanFilter = @{@"latitude": condition};
