Leave a Review TurboScan™ Pro
Used for years. Incredibly valuable.
I just realized today when the application asked if I wanted to leave a review or not, HOW MUCH IVE USED THIS over the past few years. It’s been incredibly valuable for when people need a hand written signature in a form to be emailed. I’ve used this application for sending notes to people, to heavy hitting things like signed contracts for buying vehicles and other major events. At my old job, I had the only “real” scanner in the building next to my desk (was used to scan artwork into graphic design software as I was working at a print shop) and people would come all the time to use it. I’d always ask “you just need 2 forms scanned? You could just be using turbo scan.” And almost like a cheesy commercial script they would ask me what it was. Once I show them the app and explain the paid version is super cheap and very worth it, the number of people that would come to my office for scans dropped dramatically. Absolutely love this essential application. It should come with the phone.Show lessRowe2ry
STILL the best
Been using Turboscan for years now. I was intrigued when I saw that Apple tried to enter the document scanning game by integrating native documenting scanning into one of the recent iOS releases, but I’m here to tell you it’s still complete garbage compared to Turboscan. Seriously I don’t know what I would do without it. It can scan ANYTHING and still looks just as good as a real scan with a scanner. It’s so easy to use there’s just no comparison. The way it removes background colors I even use it when I want to “clean” up a simple diagram drawing for printing so I don’t waste ink. Anyway I highly recommend this app and see myself using it in the foreseeable future.Show lessJames121515
Four stars—almost five, but not quite
I do really like this app and I use it often. The problem is that sometimes, it just decides it won’t copy the entire document for me. I will have a document with columns, and sometimes, inexplicably, the app will totally refuse to copy all the columns of an 8 1/2x 11 document. It will only copy two or three columns. Sometimes it will work if I first photograph the document and then try to scan the photograph in to the app. Other times, the app still won’t scan the entire document, only a few rows. Then again, another day, it will scan the entire document that it refused to entirely scan the day before. Puzzling and aggravating, since I had started depending on this app for my scanning needs. Other than that, it’s a very good app. I wish the app creators would fix this. I’d like to be able to “stretch” the area of scan, and sometimes I can, and sometimes, I can’t. “It’s a puzzlement!”Show lesscharesepel
Developer Response
Sorry you have problems with TurboScan. It sounds like the border detection algorithm fails on some of your pages. This happens sometimes when pages have dark lines across, etc. Even if the algorithm fails and you see only partially scanned image in Preview, you can always press "Frame" on top left and manually adjust the frame. To make auto page detection work better, I recommend placing your documents on a darker background. Thanks and you can email us at support@turboscanapp.com if you still have problems here. MattUPDATED Scanning since 2014!!!! - just get it!
I forgot I reviewed TurboScan and love it enough to start another! Don’t bother with the building notepad scanning. Not worth it
This is my original review: I started this review because I scrolled back in all of my standard documents looking for something and realize that I’ve been using the products since June 2014. It is by far the best way I have ever seen for quickly photographing scanning and sending documents any number of ways. A great app does exactly what it supposed to do when it says it’s going to do it. Turboscan does that and more. It corrects camera shake, straightens documents, allows for manual override, and many other things. Just get it!Show lessDanthatswho
Best scanning app EVER!! Maybe even best app ever!! I use it daily.
I never never never write reviews but I just have to say you will not regret this purchase. I’m in sales and usually out in the field…have had this app for years and use it even when I have a regular scanner right next to me. Awesome quality, super fast, and allows me to scan any document and email it to myself as a PDF in less than 30 seconds.
Also serves as a sort of “digital file cabinet” that you can search so no more needing to read something that’s hanging on the fridge or a bulletin board at home when I’m somewhere else 😳🤪 I hang the hard copy, scan a copy in here, and delete it when schedule comes out the next year.Show lesssww7705
Great app, smooth, practical, user-friendly, hand-held scanner and filing
Saves lots of time and certainly beats using a scanner. The most useful feature: you can create multi-page documents and add pages to a previously scanned document. If you need to present trip receipts, for instance, you can scan each of them on the go and at the end of your trip have just one neat file with all of them scanned in time order! It's the non-desktop utility that I use the most! You can organize yr files in folders (receipts, IDs, health certificates) and easily send any of them by email or other app in different formats (pdf, jpg, etc.). It gas saved me on several trips when I needed to present copy of documents or remember their numbers and dates.Show lessNardix*
Excellent App
[2021 Updated Review]: Still my favorite app for productivity but the latest updates and a new iPhone have made this app even better! The ‘auto’ feature works really well and made the 3x scan worth it more often. Other little details have improved and I appreciate that they have continued to make this great app even better.
I’ve been using this app for over 5 years. As a college student it helped me make up missed notes, copy ppt slides, and saved me the cost of a few of those ‘buy my $300 book for this class and we’ll use it twice before you resell it for $10’ deals. In the workplace, this app was even more valuable. Especially when I was working in the field, I could quickly create a clean-looking pdf scan, email it to billing, and by doing so back it up in the cloud. A minute while parked at the job site on this app and I’d leave a job site with my part of the deal done and backed up. NO MORE LOST INVOICES!! Definitely a five star app. It is among my most valued apps, if under-appreciated. It’s one of the only apps I have that I’m a bit sad that it took me (probably over) five years to write this rave review.Show lessStarsReview
Where is the upload to Google drive option?
I used to be able to upload files from TurboScan into my Google Drive. The Google Drive upload option appears to be no longer available. This feature was one of the main reasons why I download it and purchased a TurboScan. Can you assist?
Thank you very much for the reply to the above comment. Know that I am unable to see a Google Drive option after selecting open in/AirDrop. Google Drive used to show up as an option and now it does not. I’m not sure what to do. Thanks again. I got your reply. Thank you. I looked all the way to the right and did not see Google Drive. I tapped on the three dots and did not see Google Drive in the available selection of apps. I reinstalled Google Drive on my phone. That did not work either.Show lessMPJ93
Almost Perfect But No Password Protection
This is absolutely one of my favorite apps. Everything it does it does virtually flawlessly. Imaging is fantastic. Adding pages is a breeze. Copying to iCloud goes without a hitch. But it has one major fail and that is NO password protection for emailed documents. With identity theft rampant, you would think this feature would be an obvious one, but no. The only solution I can find is copy your jpeg to iCloud, open it with Preview on your Mac, and assign a password, and email it from your desktop, which completely negates one of TurboScan’s most convenient features. Password protection has been sorely overdue for years now. Until then, I can only give this near perfect app only three stars.Show lessRichard D. Moore
Greatest app you thought you’d hardly use
Wrong, you will use this app more often than you can imagine. It’s a one-time charge and you have the highest quality scanner you could own. Best of all, it’s with you all of the time. I have owned scanners/printers that take up room, need ink replacement, and must be replaced frequently, and I must have access to it at the time I need it. With TurboScan, it’s there when I need it.
I have just installed the TurboFax Pro, as I am occasionally needing to fax an item as opposed to emailing it, as some businesses do not allow access to their computers via outside emails. I’ve always had to leave home, either drive to bank (free faxing), or to a postal annex type place and pay per sheet (usually costing $1.00 per page). The thing is, I’ve now had to take the time to drive somewhere, go inside a business, and pay someone more money to fax something I could have done from home, for less time and less money. I can’t wait to try it out! P.S. I do not write reviews, but when I found the TurboFax app today, I felt I had to rate and review the company that makes these two app. Outstanding!!!!!Show lessKicks bad reviews out
