Leave a Review Photo Scan App by Photomyne
Super App!
This one is a keeper. It’s simple to use from the outset. Combines the clunky, load picture, scan, locate, then fix in a separate program. That’s one!
Photomyne grabs four at a time while I stand with my phone. Click, hold three seconds, click, then the magic. Each one appears on screen, is reworked to meet current standards and saved to the album of your choice. After that, you’re offered several to fix the photo further, i.e, colorize faded pics or colorize B&W pics. Several others complete what you want not what the program requires as others might.
Okay, one word review: Simplicity at its best.Show lessMagister47
My new scanning service
I have been scanning photos for decades and also used other services where I mail my photos in bulk to them and they scan and send them back. I thought that was the way to go but just decided to try Photomyne because friends have been raving about them. While skeptical of having to scan myself, I was wrong. I purchased the Photomyne tent, iPhone holder/arm accessory and paid the subscription service fee. Wow is this amazing. So easy, incredibly good quality (actually better than the scanning companies work I was mailing my photos too), and I can scan fast and have my photos digitized immediately. I love the ease of use and everything else. I’m also saving hundreds of dollars. Well done Photomyne. You are my new preferred scanning method.Show lessRobert434

Thank you for the comment, we so appreciate it! Happy scanning :)Waste of my time
Do not download this app. I spent over two hours pulling photos and scanning them. Tried to save them to send to my son and the app requires an upgrade. You have to pay to save your photos that you paid to develop. I could have just taken a picture with my phone and been very happy. I downloaded the app because I thought it would save time scanning two at a time.
Response- the description says to try the app out then decide if you want to upgrade. The information about having to buy a premium upgrade is 3/4 off the way through the description. So someone try the app, decides to save what they have scanned so far into a current album and is immediately blocked by the app with the requirement to purchase a premium upgrade. THEN. . . the app puts a watermark over my photo so I can’t view it or remove the watermark without buying a premium upgrade.
YOU CAN DO BETTER. “Premium upgrade purchase required to use the app” should be the first thing consumers see.Show lessDusapointed Air Force Mom

PLEASE do away with the 3 second pop up that verifies an action just taken in the app. For example, after deleting a scan an oval shaped bubble that says “deleted” will remain on the screen, with ZERO way to dismiss it. The same exact thing occurs every time I finish scanning a photograph. The oval bubble pops up saying “Added to album” and stays there for 3 long seconds. The entire phone screen is incapacitated during those 3 seconds and although it may not seem like a long time, it DEFINITELY adds up quickly when scanning a large number of photographs. It is absolutely maddening to have to constantly wait for the pop up to go away after every single photo is scanned or other action is taken.Show lessStevenRyanK.

Thank you for the comment, we so appreciate it! Happy scanning :)This was just what I needed
I was visiting my family and had boxes of loose photos to go through and wanted to be sure that I could digitize some for my own use.I tried taking a photo of them with my iPhone but that didn’t turn out great, and then I looked into Google drives scanner app and that didn’t work out either. PhotomyneWas at the top of my Google search when I was looking for a better option and it had great reviews so I thought I would give it a try! I’m so glad that I did. I was able to digitize over 500 photos and the app made some of them look even better than the quality of the photo itself!I love the way you can take a photo of an entire page of loose photos and the app is able to identify each individual picture and optimize it as its own photo. Great app 👍Show lessmdbergs
Best app EVER!!
I had a mother that hoarded photographs! I have pictures that date back to the 1800s that I didn’t know what to do with and every time I tried to scan them they looked like crap. This app has been amazing, and then I can easily share them with my family! A feature that I wish this app had was for me to allow contributors. I wish I could allow my nieces or my cousins to be able to make changes, like adding dates to the pictures that I didn’t know and other information. It would also be nice if you could add a feature that would allow families to get together and contribute to one album. My nieces also have old pictures of my grandparents and it would be nice if we could have them all in one place. I just can’t say enough good things about this app though! It sharpens your pictures as it downloads them it can color eyes or black and whites, although sometimes not perfectly, but overall it is just an amazing app and worth every penny they’re asking for!Show lessTracey Taylor
Great app for importing and managing photos
I purchased this app because I’m old and have hundreds of old photos I would like to preserve electronically. Pricey, but the more I use the app, the more features I’ve discovered and now feel it’s worth the cost. I also bought a photo tent and camera stabilizing arm, which has greatly improved scanned photos. A towel over the top of the box is necessary to avoid “phone” shadows from overhead light. Features I especially like are multiple albums, ability to transfer photos between albums, to rearrange photos, to produce slide shows with music and share collages, and the excellent sharpening of fuzzy faces. One negative is the company’s data collection, and I may not renew if there isn’t better assurance of privacy protection. Another feature I would like, which may be available but I haven’t figured out, is how to send a collage of pictures with captions for a printable soft-bound paper book of a special event (wedding, memorial, graduation, etc.) that could be provided to guests/friends/relatives.Show lessDiskifish

Dear User, we are happy to know that you like the app. Please help us by spreading the word amongst your friends. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please write to us at support@photomyne.com. We would love to hear from you!Used to be so good and now…
Update: developer responded to the review incorrectly. I understand how colorization and scanning technology works. The point of the review was that the technology used to be better and it’s going downhill. Used to colorize my pictures perfect and now it misses a third of the picture leaving the rest black and white. It used to grab the pictures perfect when scanning and now it crops them wrong. An app should be getting better… not worse. also, looking at their good reviews it looks funny like they’re trying to push the bad reviews further down the page. Will probably be canceling my subscription soon. ***initial review: Becoming difficult to use. Does not identify pictures easy. Colorize used to be amazing and now it takes 10 times as long and only does a quarter of the picture. Used to be such a good app.Show lesscaj-1902
Amazing
I was looking for a platform to easily take pictures of hundreds of physical photos. But I didn’t wanna pay a ton, nor did I want to make it a headache. I just uploaded hundreds of photos over the last two hours, made them into slideshows very easily. Shared them to my Google Drive to use as a super simple slideshow. I work in disputing bad reviews, legitimately my job. I don’t review things unless they are phenomenal. This is it! Highly highly recommended. It was free to an extent but then it was a $10 fee to finalize what I was looking for. If and when I have another project like this I will do it again in a heartbeat, personally not going to pay the yearly fee. But anybody trying to do something on the regular, it’s worth it!Show lessMargo 0000
