Nothing I do makes it work. If I go to the App Store and open this app all my previous stuff is there but still cat access anything. How do we fix this? ### 4/5 — Best free scanner *2021-07-07* The best scanner I’ve used in the last 10 years. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-03-16* Easy to use. ### 4/5 — Great app *2020-02-29* Very helpful app I use it all the time for work! Scan works well and the app is easily accessible But the offer of upgrade can get annoying as it comes up all the time ### 4/5 — Works well *2019-11-21* Works like it need it to. ### 4/5 — Trial offer *2019-11-04* I don’t want the trial offer. The reminder is frustrating. ### 5/5 — Great. But don’t like the nagging ads to pay up *2019-09-25, version 3.4.52* Great. But don’t like the nagging ads to pay up ### 5/5 — Awesome *2019-09-11* Great app! Works great for what I need ### 3/5 — Good, not great *2019-09-06, version 3.4.52* I’ve had WorldScan for awhile and have generally liked the program. It does need some update speed improvements because it takes to long to update in the app. Keep improving the product. ### 5/5 — WordScan does the job! *2019-08-21, version 3.4.52* Nice scanning app for creating PDF files using your phone. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2019-08-12, version 3.4.52* Every pdf I sent a excellent quality ### 2/5 — Annoying Ads *2019-07-22, version 3.4.52* I have the Pro version , but am constantly bombarded by lengthy video Ads to upgrade to the premium version!!! This really cuts down on my productivity, and is especially disrespectful since I paid for the Pro version. Look elsewhere if you need an efficient Scanner that doesn’t bombard you to give the developers more money. ### 5/5 — My go to... *2019-07-12* Always reliable, easy and fast. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Had pro full version paid for downgraded to free *2022-02-17* These swindlers took my money when I paid for this app before their subscription based premium plans were in place. You guessed it, they demoted me to free trial. 0 stars! ### 1/5 — Took my money and ran *2020-08-11* I had the full version for several years but the app updated and now not only am I unable to access my documents; they want me to pay again? This is not okay ### 1/5 — Forced trial *2020-03-24* The 7 day trial popped up and didn’t give a back or exit button, I tapped the screen and before I know it I have started the 7 day trial which I 100% didn’t want to do and now I am having trouble unsubscribing so I don’t get whacked with the yearly subscription for something that I DONT want!! ### 1/5 — Was a great app not any more. *2019-11-26* I bought this app for $2.99 a couple of years ago and have been saving all my important information to it. The app started coming up with an advert for a full version for $50. It wouldn’t go away and always kept interrupting what I was doing. I tried the trial and decided not to continue but then I lost all my data. Very unhappy!! Find another app as they will hijack everything if you don’t pay the money. ### 1/5 — Useless *2019-10-29* Adobe Scan is way better and it's free ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2019-10-19* Was good for years until you forced me into an expensive yearly subscription Uninstalling now Would rather ads ### 1/5 — Move to subscription- deleting this app *2019-02-22* I had the full version of this app for 5 years, but since the last update it now says I have a 1 week free trial and have to pay $25.99 for a year of the full version? No thanks. I will save my existing docs, delete this app - you can take a picture of a document and save as PDF to iBooks for free. No way is this worth the yearly subscription cost. ### 1/5 — Premium account *2019-02-07, version 3.4.38* I paid for the premium account and don’t have access to it. After texting and mailing no response for days. Not really customer oriented. Besides that I love the app and use it on a daily base for my business. ### 1/5 — Worthless on an iPad Pro *2019-01-16, version 3.4.38* I prefer apps that recognize a tablet and landscape mode, but I don’t mind turning my iPad to use an iPhone app if it is really useful. I deleted this one because in portrait mode, the only option available, it only used a fraction of the large screen mimicking an iPhone screen size with about 20 percent of the screen content cut off the right side of the iPhone simulates size screen. Terrible programming. Let us know when you learn iOS. ### 1/5 — Incorrect charge *2018-12-21* I only downloaded the trial version for 1 day and deleted it. They charged 1 year subscription fee. No refund allowed. What a scam. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Easy to use and great app *2024-04-15* So easy to use, very clean and clear documents ### 5/5 — Fantastic app, take care of storing perfectly *2023-10-17* It just make me works faster , fast processing of documents or pictures **Developer response:** Thank you for your support and feedback, and wish you a happy life~ ### 5/5 — Sjaj *2023-07-22* Ddcc ### 5/5 — Convenient PDF creator *2022-08-24, version 3.8.28* Been using it for years and I recommend it ### 5/5 — Word scan *2022-02-19, version 3.8.28* Very easy to use Useful and straightforward Needs more instructions ### 5/5 — Best Scan app *2021-06-05, version 3.7.38* Best scan app and works smart and perfect ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-03-15, version 3.7.24* This is very versatile app. Help me organize a lot of my photo and files. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-10-16* Awesome ### 5/5 — Easy to use and great app *2020-04-29, version 3.4.52* So easy to use, very clean and clear documents ### 5/5 — Very useful *2020-03-30* Works well and great for saving receipts --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
