Ratings and reviews

They had a fine document scanner but then they decided to change it. (Hint: Don't fix what ain't broke.) The new scanner is supposed to autodetect the document. It detects everything around the document and gives the document a funhouse mirror effect. That is if it bothers to take the photo. About 60% of the time it says Poor Light. If it was in a professional photo studio with four lights shining on the page it would still say Poor Light.

I haven't spent this much time waiting for things to load since the '90s. Crashes a lot, very unstable. Constantly refreshes message screen everytime you go to it instead of in the background. Has to retrieve macro forms EVERY time you start a new one instead of saving them natively. Basically, it takes 2-3 times or more longer to do things then it should take, when it works.

Good luck sending a bol with less than perfect connection. App does not cache images even temporarily until uploaded, so you may end up re-taking photos of your bol many times. Also, good luck getting a quality image, it usually takes a few tries. On a plus note you can just save and crop an image on your phone and get a good laugh at the poor quality warning the app posts when you upload it, knowing it is much higher quality than using the app directly.
