Ratings and reviews

I've been using this app for over 4 years, and back then, it was decent with only a few occasional ads. However, I'm incredibly disappointed with the app today. It's become absolute bloatware, ridden with intrusive ads that even open up unrelated apps like Shopee and other Chinese apps on my phone. It's gotten so bad that I had to switch to another app. Despite this, the features themselves are still great, so I'll give it one star for that.

In a pinch, this little scanning app hooked me up. Even when not in a pinch, it has proved itself more than reliable. My home scanner crashed and no matter what I did, it would not work. I needed to scan and send a doc immediately. I launched the app and within 30 secs, I had taken a pic of the doc, converted it to pdf, attached to an email, and sent. Highly recommended.

This app has been very useful for field salespeople or anybody that needs to quickly scan and upload documents, invoices, contracts, etc. The automatic cropping and upscaling is phenomenal. If I needed to use this more than once every couple months then I would most likely subscribe to them but for now my usage is so minimal. Perfect in a pinch. 100% recommended.
