Leave a Review SwiftScan AI Document Scanner
Brill
Some review say the text reading is poor. But it's alright. And alright is better than nothing. I cannot find anything like it on the App Store. The system is great and so easy to use.
Scanner is broken at work and this has saved the day. Much better than other scanner apps I have.
Recommend!

Hi there, We are super glad that you are still using Scanbot. We hope you have many awesome scanning years ahead :)Good app but sometimes a bit buggy
This has been my go-to scanning app for a long time. Recently it seems to be more buggy than normal. Sometimes it will lock up on processing a scan when trying to save it. I also just opened the app to scan a document and it froze up while processing the scan. I went into the documents section and none of my previous scans were showing. I freaked out a little bit, but after closing the app and restarting my phone everything came back. Just be aware that this may become a more common issue as the developers focus on their paid subscription version and this version loses their focus.Show lessMatthew28DiscipleofChrist
Greedy company....
I had paid for the pro version, top-of-the line.
Upgraded my iPhone to iOS 14, and suddenly nag screens everywhere you tap asking for more payments, subscriptions - AND WHAT APPEARS TO BE LOST FUNCTIONALITY that was paid for in the previous app.
Upgrade comes at the expense of:
- requests for more money, subscribe.
- prime real estate now displays developer messages
- no in app ways to get support (so issues are now here in app review instead of support ticket.). Current message is ASKING TO SUBSCRIBE - stuck at the top of the screen - no settings to remove it - annoying pia distracting marketing messages when what you want to see are your documents — NOT MARKETING MESSAGES!!!!
- slower workflow requiring extra taps to get work done
———
Terrribly disgruntled young have paid for the app to then have another developer let customers down flipping to subscription models - no wonder why so many hack the apps - you can not trust developers any more.
I trusted Scanbot and that was the mistake. Greedy company bailed, changed business models and stuck it to everyone who paid.Show lessPixelRogue
Fast and efficient scanning, text recognition and UI
The app is accurate when it comes to detecting the documents and recognising text.
The UI is seamless and quick.

Hi there, Thanks so much for taking the time to review and rate us!! We hope you keep enjoying Scanbot :) CharlesGood app
Good app. Changes recently and doesn't scan as well as it used too. Also took off multiple custom templates and I used this a lot. Looking for a new app. Can’t believe a company made upgrades and now it sucks! Should have just left it alone.Rheumboy
Just amazing
This is a rip off. I used to use this app but now they have taken away features I used to use and are saying I now have to pay to use those same features. Forget it. There’s lots of apps that will handle this for me both on my phone and on my computer. I would not recommend this app to anyone.Fastwalking

Hi there! Thanks a lot for your feedback. This is wrong information though, none of the features have been taken away from former pro users :) Kind regards AylinMisleading prices
This app's description in the App Store is confusing, in the description it states that it's a subscription based app. But bellow that, where they list the In-App Purchases, it lists what appears to be a one time fee lists. Such as 6.99 for the full Pro features, or 8.99 for the VIP Full Scanner App.
I always look at the section first before I read the description. I figured that any fees should be listed under In App Purchase list. Isn't that the whole purpose of that section?
I do not purchase any apps that are subscription based, unless it's a periodical such as a magazine or newspaper. Sorry but the crazy prices this and other apps charge is nothing but ridiculous. Unless you are releasing new features every few days) there is no reason to pay so much for the same o' features. There are plenty of scanning apps full of features that are just as good without a monthly subscription.
Many developers claim that they need the money to develop the app, but really, that much money? Again, are they rolling out new fetures every few days? No! Come people, stop milking people. Yeah, you wajt to buy your new BMW but milking people is a rip off.Show lessFototico
Why is Scanbot Pro $70?
The free Scanbot is good but not necessarily better than other free scanners. In fact, there are other free scanners that can do more than Scanbot. All the locked features are available on Scanbot Pro for $70. However, even those premium features are free in other free scanners, so whenever there is a limitation in one scanner, I simply move to the next scanner that does offer that feature for free.
Most free scanners have limitations, but, as long as I move from one free scanner to the next, I basically get to use the “premium” features.
I hope Scanbot Pro can reasonably reduce the price in half, because with the availability of free apps and in-app purchases, few people would pay monthly for a scanner.Show lessApple_App Gamer

Hey there, thank you so much for writing us this awesome review. We're glad to hear you love using our app! :DIt was a great app...until recently
Have used this app for years to keep track of receipts for business and it has been everything I could need. It has been amazing. This last month something I was promoted to buy an upgrade and locked out of use of the app. It appeared that in order to access the use of the app and to recover previous scan I would need to purchase an upgrade. This issue was compounded by the fact that, first I’m not sure why I have to buy it b/c it was working finely to this pint and second, every time I tap on any storage options there is an error message so even if I did want to purchase it, I can’t. It at least three days of very concerned on/off searching to figure out how to regain control of the app. I did eventually figure out how to do this, but am no longer anywhere as enthusiastic about this app. To hold my 7 months worth of tax receipts hostage as a marketing tool is a very low tactic.
Bottom line, be prepared for a hard sell into their premium tier. This app seems to be more about making money for the developer than the ease of use for the consumer.Show lesskjv21
