Ratings and reviews

Web app is better than this: 1. When taking a picture of a document in portrait, the image is rotated to landscape and scrunched for no reason, which degrades quality. 2. No preview of the fax before sending. Cover page was visible, but not the document. Which would have helped to catch the problem above. Phone app needs a lot of work.

In the first 3 minutes already 3 problems: 1. fax numbers can not be assigned to a contact name (possible in theweb version), 2. I was not able to connect to business OneDrive account to read files, 3. it is not clear what is the "local folder" where the documents should be taken from. So I was not able to use the app for a basic functionality of sending 1-page fax. Pitty

Setup is tedious. But once it's done, it works brilliantly. There are some technical hiccups such as you cant put 0 after the country code or the process will keep looping without explanation. Linking dropbox requires patience as it keeps loading unless you grant access to local folders in another menu... Again no info. You initially get free 50 cents which I used to successfully send a fax to Switzerland for 11 cents. So even with the headache, 5 star given for getting job done free of charge.
