Simply works

Useless

Can't figure out how to make it scan. App doesn't have any help available. Online site doesn't either (i.e., the support link above doesn't get you any documentation on THIS app).

Truly amazing -

This app does it all - if you take the time to check out the supporting website - what you can use this app for , particularly in education , is quite stunning - I cannot recommend it highly enough -

Well thought out

I really like this app and its associated Web site. The only thing I would like to be able to do is to transfer the media I download to elsewhere on the device such as the camera roll. Well done.

Disappointing

Does not work for me at all, does absolutely nothing, literally nothing, doesn't respond at all.
