### 1/5 — Does not work with Onedrive

*2021-05-25*

Purchased the Iriscan to PDF. 
I keep getting an error about "lifeservices error domain" when trying to access pdf files in the cloud. There seams to be no support area or reference how to solve this. 😂
Ready to delete this app ...

### 5/5 — Die beste Scan App bisher

*2018-01-05*

Habe schon ziemlich viele Scan Apps getestet - auch viele der gut bewerteten so genannten „Pro“ Scan Apps, die allesamt nicht wenig Geld kosten.

Ganz ehrlich: die meisten dieser Apps sind für meine Zwecke unbrauchbar. 
Diese hier vorliegende App “IRIScan to PDF” ist auch nicht perfekt aber eine, die in der Praxis tatsächlich brauchbar ist. 

Warum?
Ziemlich gute Scanfunktion, hervorragende OCR Ergebnisse und guter, sehr gut komprimierter Export nach PDF.

Ich generiere meistens PDFs, in denen der OCR Scan hinterlegt ist – die PDF Datei ist somit durchsuchbar. Auch das funktioniert natürlich nicht zu 100% perfekt aber nahezu... und insgesamt besser als bei jeder anderen App die ich bisher getestet habe.
Ein weiterer Vorteil: diese App führt den Scan lokal auf dem Gerät (Handy, Tablet) durch - und nicht, wie so viele andere Apps, in der Cloud.

Habe soeben noch die älteren Bewertungen anderer User überflogen – die meisten Mängel sind inzwischen behoben.
Für die Gesamtleistung ist der Preis (inklusive In-App Käufe deutlich unter 20 €) wirklich in Ordnung. 

Also aus meiner Sicht: vielen Dank an die Entwickler für ein wirklich brauchbares Produkt und bitte weiter so! :-)

### 1/5 — No farsi ocr

*2017-10-13*

I purchased the app but there is no farsi ocr capability!!!

### 1/5 — Not being updated

*2017-08-04*

No need to download this App as for last two years no updates are available.
Also if not updated it is not compatible with iOS 11

### 1/5 — Export doesn't work.I want to get refund

*2017-02-18*

I want to get refund.
It didn't work converting text/pdf version export for Korean language.
I need an app that export image file to text converting (Korean) so I want to refund

### 5/5 — Oui mais

*2017-02-16*

Excellente appli

La reconnaissance du français et de l anglais est bonne .

Dommage qu'elle soit abandonnée par son développeur qui est une entreprise qui appartient à CANON si je ne me trompe pas!

Elle fonctionne bien hors connexion!

### 1/5 — Widerruf nicht möglich

*2016-01-10*

Kein Umtausch, keine Rückerstattung, trotz online Kauf, geht die Software nicht „Pech gehabt", es zählt, gekauft wie gesehen.

### 4/5 — Keine "Open in" Unterstützung....

*2015-12-12*

...für PDF Dateien von anderen Apps 😡😡 Das DIN A4 Format wird auch selten erkannt. Es ist immer etwas größer. Ansonsten sehr schnelle und gute OCR und Komprimierung. Bitte nachbessern.

### 2/5 — Disappointing for the price and the name

*2015-10-28, version 1.4*

Expected a lot more for the price and name attached to this app. Very basic image enhancement, cropping is fiddly, text recognition is hit and miss due to poor enhancement of image, much better options available, sadly not a patch on camscanner, wish I could get my money back.

### 5/5 — Brilliant And Simple

*2015-01-09, version 1.3*

Produces searchable pdf's with a very small file size and connects to all cloud storage services. It's all very simple to use. Super useful app.
