By far, the BEST scanner app I've tried
I wanted money on Scanbot and at least 3 other scanner apps. Non comes close to tiny Scanner in terms of black & white scan quality, simplicity & ease of use. It is the ONLY scanner app I use now despite owning paid versions of others. Wanted to write this for a long time to thank the developers but... life always gets in the way. I use TS for digitizing some of my books so that I can take them on my iPad. The black and white creates the lightest PDF size. Other apps just can't get it right. They are very low quality with jagged edges. Tiny Scan does lines and details with precision. Love this app. The other settings are also excellent - the grey and color. Creating multi page scans is intuitive, and it's easy to work with my Dropbox. Oddly, the Dropbox mobile scanner probably places in number 2 for scan apps; but again, the quality of TS is second to none.

This is so perfect for me, quickly moving sheet music to my iPad near instantaneously
Why the missing .01? We have choir practice 1 hour before performance. Since we are woefully disorganized they often hand me sheet music seconds before we run through it for the first and only time. Sometimes in the rush I forget to tap "batch mode", so I have to go back and start over. If I could switch to batch mode right then and there, I'd give it the extra .01
Now, for six stars, auto-integration with ForScore so I can skip the import step, wow. For 7 stars, it'd integrate with ForScore on my iPad, as I use the camera on the iPhone because it has a flash. Not sure why the iPad doesn't have one, but it makes a big difference when you're playing sheet music live that you've never seen before.

So convenient
Love Tiny Scanner! I've been using it for years and it makes so much sense for documents and things that don't need to be scanned at 300 or 600 dpi. So much easier than owning an actual scanner that takes up too much space!
Beyond imagination
This app is just a real deal. Scans as a desktop scanner. Options of paper sizes, formats of documents, colour preferences and emailing options. Just amazing. Ever since I got this app, I send documents instantly without thinking of scanning quality. Just love love love using this app.
I will recommend this app every second, minute, hour, day, week, month and year. Just amazing.
Kudos to the developers. Just fantastic.

Easy - must have app!
Basically its a photo-pdf scanner, instantly and with easy to use but awesome options inc like size, shape etc Email or save to roll and heaps more options of export. You must have this app! And its free!
Save me the cost of a scanner
It's user friendly, and the result is far better than I expected so I got the pro version. I used it for work.
It works and is very user-friendly
I'm very pleased with this app. The quality of the scans is very good. (I've used it to scan important pages of library books).
The difference between the free and pro versions, to my understanding, is that you can't do any batch scanning in the free version. In the pro version this is quite convenient, as you can quickly scan a multi-page document and save it as a PDF. The sharing functionality is also restricted when you don't pay: they only give you a wifi method so that you can transfer it to your computer via a link. The pro version includes sharing via Dropbox, which works really well, and via email (perhaps also other options that I don't need).
So it really depends on your purpose, if it's just for a one-off or for the odd individual page or receipt then the free version suffices.

You'll never need to buy a scanner
I am a graduate student and a registered nurse. I have used this app almost weekly for all scanning/uploading jobs for the past year. I do not own a scanner and now I probably never will. It takes a photo of the document, lets you trim out the areas you don't want (like the table you placed the document on), then publishes it into PDF format and let's you email right from the app. The result looks identical to a scanned image. You can even adjust the darkness level before you publish it. I have made a 5 page PDF document before in a matter of 2 minutes or less. Must have for all students, employees, anyone!

Essential App
This is one of the few apps that I can highly recommend. Scan and email from your mobile? Brilliant!
Amazing for Business
This app is part of my "Big 10" apps that help me run my Business. I use it mainly for receipts...literally scanning them at payment, then can either email to myself...or what I actually do is have them automatically uploaded to a Dropbox folder then I can log in to Xero and upload the receipts when reconciliating transactions. (Can also email it direct to Xero, I just find the automatic upload to Dropbox quicker).
Imo...it knocks spots off of receipt bank and the actual Xero app.
Have also used it to scan docs and Photos. Excellent results on both. It's miles better than my HP Printer/Scanner. MILES. Quicker, easier, better.
