Ratings and reviews

App is rudimentary. The scanner itself is amazing, but once documents are scanned, it is clunky to rename files and it is SO clunky to download files ONE AT A TIME to my device. Seriously needs multiple selection for downloading and deleting. BTW, sharing is a ridiculous place to put downloading. Folks, hire a real ux designer...kids in grade school design better interfaces. You have a best in class scanner...app deserves better.

250 of my documents just disappeared from the app and I cannot find them anywhere on my phone. They also never uploaded to the cloud. Avoid this app at all costs! According to CS, they put the files in a hidden location, so there's no way to find them. And he couldnt explain why only 1 document ever went to the cloud when we were testing it even though I did everything 100% the same every time. STAY AWAY!!!

this thing is awesome! it's fast, compact, and the images are surprisingly clean. I'm very happy with my purchase. My only want is for the return feed to accept thicker material. Maybe that's already available on newer models. This is my first ScanSnap, but if I find a model with that feature, it's probably not my last.
