### 5/5 — The app is great! But could use minor tweaks

*2018-11-24, version 1.1.0*

This app is very smooth, even on an iPhone 6 running iOS9 which is amazing because everything else lags on my phone. The layout is very easy to read and get familiar with.

A few things I would ask for are naming the documents more than just "Scanned Document". I would like if it gave us automated naming based off of time or location or something like that. Maybe even taking advantage of the AI cores on New iPhones for reading our papers and naming them accordingly. This would really set it apart from apps like Camscanner. 

The edges aren't being properly cropped, but that is a minor issue to me. 

All in all, it's a great app!
