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.

Fine reader

Ottima app

FineScanner

Presque parfait mais il faudrait que la netteté soit meilleure.

Zero stars

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!

Best Mobil Scan and Easy to Use

Awesome scanner, Pro is worth the price

Great OCR with only one remark

FineReader is well known for its superior OCR quality and this app stands for its name.

The only thing I wished it done better is Searcheable PDFs. For some reason, FineReader modifies original PDF by replacing image text with recognized text. IMO documents appear to be a bit fabricated and I really like approach by Adobe Scan and others that keep scanned image text intact and instead place background text so it remain searchable while keeping original image intact.

Beste App

Habe sie seit Jahren und bin sehr zufrieden mit dieser App! Ich kann die Größe ändern und für mich das wichtigste: aus Fotos PDF‘s herstellen und diese dann mit geringeren Tintenverbrauch ausdrucken und trotzdem einen schönen Glanz zu haben.

Could be great !

Great functionality but lacking file management and organization. Unable to list files by different attributes. Cannot create folder structures. Good scanning functionality and support for storing on most cloud storage services.

Unfortunately, I may search for an other app

I use Fine Reader for many years. I have paid version for Windows and for mobile (even since it was for life). But now, as a proof that better is the enemy of good, on my iOS I cannot load images in app and in the app I cannot see the gallery itself: it categorizes me the pictures doing what I am not interested .

App no longer works

After the recent app update the thing no longer works. I paid over $150 for this app. This is NOT good

Powerful

ABBYY FineReader PDF Pro is an essential tool for anyone looking to scan, convert, and edit documents on the go. With its smart AI-powered technology, it turns your device into a versatile scanner that captures everything from receipts to books and even street billboards. The app saves scans in both PDF and JPEG formats, making it easy to share or archive your documents.

The offline OCR feature is a standout, allowing you to extract text from scans directly on your device without needing an internet connection. Whether you’re at home or on the move, FineReader makes it effortless to digitize and edit your documents with perfect accuracy.

It’s a must-have for anyone needing to streamline their document management, and the fact that it’s ranked as the #1 business application in 98 countries speaks for itself. Highly recommended!

Herramienta indispensable

Como profesor,Para mí es una herramienta de trabajo indispensable para procesar todo tipo de textos e imágenes .

“Request for Refund Due to Accidental Purchase by a Minor”

A purchase was mistakenly made by my young, underage daughter. I requested the cancellation of the transaction, but the refund for the one-year subscription was unfortunately denied. This is truly disappointing.

It is a scam

It does not have any way to open a pdf from your device, it uses only your camera, and the app does not meet google’s API so it is blocked. If you got an pdf on your tablet, this app will do nothing for you, it is a scam. 60 euros wasted for an ap that is literally useless. Thanks Abbyy.

Very good

Best application for pdf documents

The app stopped splitting pages

It’s so bad that the recognize process stopped splitting pages of uploaded pdf .. half star

Autocrop or autocrap

It used to be a great app. I don’t know if it’s about having the latest iPad, but after manually change every boundary of 250 pages, by mistake I pressed retake, and all my boundaries went lost… what’s the use of autocrop in this app? I don’t know, it rarely works.

Don’t waste your time

Would prefer a refund. No real options, etc. don’t waste your $

7500円は高い。

初期のスキャン精度に依存する。→そんなことはスキャンソフトが世の中に出回り始めた時からわかっている。それをいつまでも言い訳の隠れ蓑にしないでいただきたい。 ちなみに、元データグチャグチャの状態でスキャンしたわけではありません。以前レビューしていたどなたかがおっしゃっておりましたが、手直しが大変なのは事実です。 ほんと返金して欲しいです。

Great App

Just discovered that scanned pages can be re-ordered. Great.
Useful tool to have in the toolbag. Edge of page detection works well.
