Don’t trust this company

They stopped updating this $60 app to release a new version with subscriptions. This is utterly shameful and I’ll never trust them again.

This is just a simple camera something your normal phone camera can do. I wanted it to capture a book thinking this app will make it faster. A complete waste of money genius scan is waaay better!
