### 3/5 — Good scans but Doesn’t compile multiple pages scan into a single multi-page document

*2025-12-17, version 1.1.7*

50-50

### 5/5 — Simple & it works, great.

*2023-10-15*

Simple & it works, great.

### 1/5 — BEWARE: Will take your money even if you unsubscribe!

*2023-05-30*

Tried this one time and after a week I decided it’s not for me so I unsubscribed. But it still decided to charge me. Disputing the charges now with Apple and my bank.

### 1/5 — No obvious way to cancel and they bill more than once a month

*2023-04-02*

Don’t use - it’s a rip off

### 1/5 — Expensive subscription

*2023-03-04*

This should be buy once, $7 a week is unacceptable for something that is a factory capability in the notes app… Some features are nice but by god I hope no one pays for this.

### 1/5 — Money

*2023-01-27*

This app is money to use and just isn’t helpful for poor collage student. Personally I recommend CamScanner it is free forever and has some money features but for those it give you 5 free try’s so I really like CamScanner over this.

### 1/5 — Won’t scan without paying

*2023-01-11*

Trying to scan and it keeps popping up to pay and won’t let me X out

### 1/5 — Scam

*2022-12-22*

It’s a paid app

### 1/5 — Rubbish!

*2022-10-27*

Rubbish

### 2/5 — PDF size too large for sharing ?!

*2022-10-26*

It appears after scanning one doc that that now converted PDF is 15MB…. way too large to share… & this app offers no way to reduce its size for sharing!
Also it does not offer scanning multiple docs & then being able to select all & share …. only allows one doc to PDF sharing
