MDScan is a mobile doc scanner that allows you to scan any type of document using your phone camera. This could be receipts, text pages, coupons, posters, magazine articles, invoices, pictures, and any printed documents.


How does it work?


1. Take a picture with your camera
2. Choose an editing option (you can select “unenhanced”)
3. Easily adjust the scan area using the 4 borders on the page
4. Confirm the scan to the set dimensions (ready presets available)
5. Choose filters to enhance the quality (optional)
6. Save and Export into a PDF or JPG
7. Share on Social Media, Email, Cloud Servers


More detailed information:


This mobile scanner is perfect to use on the go - anywhere and anytime. With a variety of presets, MDScan guarantees great experience and its automatized functions are suitable for the busiest users looking to scan PDF documents with their mobile device’s camera. If you are looking for a mobile scanning application that automatically detects borders, corrects distortion, and equalizes brightness to create clear, legible documents, you are definitely on the right page.


Speaking of great user experience and automatic functions, the MDScan integrates seamlessly with cloud storage services such as Google Drive and Dropbox. In addition, you can send your scanned documents with email services, Facebook (Messenger), Twitter, and other apps if installed on your device.


This scanner app shines in terms of uploading but has no second when it comes to converting pictures taken from your phone's camera into legitimate documents you can use for business purposes.


With the Mobile Doc Scanner (MDScan) + OCR, you can now add multiple pages easier than ever. Whenever you want to scan a new page, you just need to press the caption button and you’re all set! All of the scanned documents and pages are stored and available under the “My Scans” field.


You can also try the Batch mode, which allows you to scan multiple pages within seconds! There is a feature called “Process page laters (spy mode)” that allows you to scan as many documents as you want to without facing any processing delays.


Of course, you can work with a photo or document that is already saved in your file system. Whether a PDF file or a regular picture, you can use the same editing options as if you just scanned a picture with your camera.


Another great feature this document scanner app offers is OCR (Optical Character Recognition) which stands for the electronic conversion of images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine-encoded text. Whether scanned from a PDF file or a photo you just took, this new version of Mobile Doc Scanner (MDScan) + OCR guarantees fast performance, user-friendly interface, and professional results.


Let’s sum up what you get downloading the MDScan:


* Convert any image into a PDF format.
* Document edge detection and perspective correction.
* Improved image quality
* Quick scan and multi-page documents
* Share easily and upload instantly
* Money-back guarantee

I use to like this app. But the more I use the more useless it becomes. Auto uploading to OneDrive may or may not work. Totally random. Use the three button to force it to resymc with OneDrive and it doesn't upload the files with the new names. Camera is good for three photos and then the app can no longer operate the camera. You have to give it to close and restart the app. And it will be good for three more. During this, it may or may not save the photos you already took. I'm beyond irritated.

You can load images from your phone camera or import from other apps. Example: an employee texts me a pic of a receipt. I long press on the image in my texting app, share it to MDScan, crop and edit the image, save as a PDF and email it to myself. The whole process takes less than a minute. I absolutely love this app and have been using it for around ten years and can't imagine running my business without it.

Best scanner app I’ve found and used for over 7 years! I happened upon a review I wrote in 2013 giving it 1 star with my complaints that have long since been fixed by developer. So sorry that I didn’t find a way to update from 1 star to 5 star earlier. I paid a small amount for this app in 2013 and have downloaded it onto several android phones since then. It is better than any scanning app or program I’ve been able to find for my phones, tablets and even desktop. If I had more time to write more details, I would. Presently trying to figure out how to get the same app for my IPad since I’m not impressed with other options thus far.
