### 2/5 — Trash

*2021-06-04*

I hate it ok

### 5/5 — Makes saving and sending documents easy!

*2021-05-24*

I can not recommend this app enough! It saves me from having to find a scanner or wait until I’m home. I can sign/approve documents on the go and return them quickly. I love that it can crop out the background and edit it to make it easy to save my important documents that I know I will need for later. Can’t go wrong with CS!

### 5/5 — Scan Now: Loving this app

*2021-05-24*

This IS pretty awesome.  SOOOO much better than simply taking a picture with your phone. Much better detail, especially for documents.  Can save as a jpeg or a pdf file. Awesome cropping.  A couple great B/W filters that can keep out the grey so you can print without shades of grey messing up your document.  There’s even an option to “sign” your document.

### 5/5 — Best app for on the go scanning needs

*2021-05-24*

Im an administrator for the small business my husband and I own. I also help out friends with administrative projects in their own small businesses as well. 
This scanner app is an absolute lifesaver and makes it so easy to scan and send docs if you are part of a small business operations or work remotely.  Its more valuble to me than my weather app!

### 5/5 — Works as described

*2021-05-24*

I never write reviews but I need the extra 200mb of free space.  I have used this app four a few years now on multiple phones ranging from iphone 4S-7 and Samsung Galaxy 4-Note 8.  It has never let me down!  No complaints with the older phones and even clearer and crispier with the newer phones with better cameras!!!  Highly recommend as a quick pdf camera!  I even used it to screenshot a text message that was acceptable use in a litigation I oversaw...

### 5/5 — Professionalism In Your Hand

*2021-05-23*

This has been a very successful app which has helped me on saving time, saving money, and saving many other things in only one touch. In my occasion, this app is extremely useful to me since I have to frequently send emails of pictures and important documents to further distances from any place I’m located at. Thanks Scan Now!

### 5/5 — Love this App

*2021-05-23*

I’ve been using Scan Now for years and love it. Easy to use, easy to email the documents and frankly makes my professional life a little easier knowing I will be able to find documents at a later time. I highly, highly recommend this app.

### 5/5 — Scan Now

*2021-05-23*

Without a doubt my favorite app. Works perfectly an saves time and mileage when you need to get documents to someone in a hurry. Don’t have to drive to the office to scan. Love being able to scan and send from my car or anywhere.

### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing

*2021-05-23*

I've been using the program for years- and it's one of my most used productivity based apps. Even forced all my students to use it to send in their time sheets 😃 love the quality of the "magic color" filter, and so much easier to use / read than faxing.

### 5/5 — Great app but...

*2021-05-23*

This app would get five stars if I could just pay a one time fee to remove the watermark instead of being forced to subscribe. I don’t use this app for more than snapping pictures of documents for work. I love the way this app functions and the conversion into pdf is very convenient.
