About this app

[What is ScanSnap Home?]
ScanSnap Home is a data management app that lets you easily use "ScanSnap" image scanners from your Android smartphone, tablet, or Chromebook.

Even without a ScanSnap, you can capture paper documents using your smartphone's camera to save and use them as digital data.
ScanSnap Home automatically converts paper documents, photos, and business cards into data that is easy to find, organized, and ready to use.
ScanSnap Home works seamlessly with cloud services and various apps, allowing you to use your important information securely and conveniently from anywhere.

Wifi settings got broken. I was able to quickly adjust ScanSnap setting on my phone before doing a cloud scan. With this new version of the app, this ability is gone and it never finds the scanner on the home network. Why doesn't it allow entering the IP address of the scanner manually? (I have installed the latest firmware update with new SSL certs but the issue was present before and after the update)

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.

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!!!

What’s new

Fixed a bug where scanning multiple documents would unintentionally result in the scanned documents being saved as separate PDF files.
