### 5/5 — I’ve experimented with many scan apps...

*2020-01-12, version 2.1*

Promise promise this is super incredible while others are ok or bad. How they did this I’ll never understand but try it. You’ll very likely be as impressed as I continue to be. I was not asked to wrote this and I have no gain via them through this except I send a warm appreciation and thank you. Rich

### 5/5 — So Convenient!

*2019-07-25, version 2.1*

I love when I have forms that I need to send to someone and I don’t have to get out another device to do a scan. I just use my phone and it works out great!

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2019-06-10, version 2.1*

This app works exactly as it describes.
Perfect every time!
You have to get it.

### 5/5 — Scanbee

*2019-04-18, version 2.1*

I think this is the easiest scanner out there

A very excellent app 
Thanks so much for your work

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2018-11-30, version 2.1*

I’ve used this app for at least 4 years- for work, for documenting things like leases, when we sold our house and wanted a scanned copy of documents- it has always worked without a hitch and is sooooo easy. Love it!!!!

### 5/5 — Nice app

*2018-11-26, version 2.1*

I love it. Easy to use and does a good job.

### 5/5 — Lifesaver

*2018-08-03, version 2.1*

ScanBee has been a lifesaver for me. I often need to send documents out of state for family business. ScanBee makes it pretty simple. Thrilled to have this app!

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2018-06-28*

Love this app, when I do a scan I can email it nice feature

### 5/5 — All I need

*2018-06-22, version 2.1*

In the spirit of fair disclosure, I haven’t used a lot of these apps. I had one other which I deleted as soon as I use this because it provided everything I needed without over complicating things. It does what it’s supposed to and easy to use.  Perfect.

### 5/5 — Review

Very user friendly

*2018-04-19*

I love this app. Have scanned and emailed up to 15 documents to one address without a computer. This app makes me love my iPad even more.

### 1/5 — Export issues

*2020-04-22, version 2.1*

I used this for a few months then suddenly it will no longer export scans. So now it’s unusable.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2017-05-15, version 2.0*

Can't get it to work on my iPhone 6+

### 2/5 — ScanBee stop responding

*2021-01-08, version 2.1*

Suddenly, ScanBee Application stop responding.
I cannot reach my scanned documents stored in the application, i am wondering about this technical issue why the developer do nothing to solve it, although it is existed since IOS 14.2 update

### 2/5 — Poor

*2019-07-31*

Product came Highly recommended but for me - e-mail sending not working, auto edge finding works intermittently. Contacted support for advice but no response after a week. Poor. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling - still no joy. Shame as it’s foods value if it met expectations.

### 2/5 — Not very good

*2017-04-04, version 2.0*

I've used this app several times and have compared it to other scan apps. This one doesn't scan the images very clear.

### 3/5 — Nice app but needs update

*2019-04-07, version 2.1*

I wish i could export scanned image as photos and save in my gallery. Also when i export to google keep (ios) it only exports text, not scanned images ( may be problem of keep.
And it would be better if it has cloud syncing options at least with native icloud. 
Moreover i couldnt rename the scanned files later. Did i miss some setting?

Despite its my default scanning app in my phone and every-time i move my scanned files to evernote for safety. Even it has risk to delete my files even the app gets deleted accidentally.

### 3/5 — Not focusing

*2017-01-03*

The app does not focus unless I close and open it with the page all ready set up in front of camera . It don't re-focus. The cancel button is too close to the work space and it cancels the scan edit and I have to start again ...

### 3/5 — Needs Update

*2016-05-03*

Would be much nicer to use if it fit the iPhone 6 screen. Otherwise functions well!

### 4/5 — Easy to use

*2018-09-30, version 2.1*

The first time I used this scanning app, I found it self explanatory and very easy to use.

### 4/5 — Good app

*2018-04-17, version 2.1*

Super easy to use.

### 5/5 — AMAZING!!

*2023-03-08*

This app is one of the most useful apps around. I use it ALLLLLLL the time.

### 5/5 — Amazingly easy

*2022-06-15*

I have used ScanBee a number of times and found it reliably easy to use.

### 5/5 — Use it all the time!

*2021-11-09, version 2.1*

I have tried a few scanning apps but this one if my favorite. Very easy to use. Like the multiple page option. Can email through multiple email accounts. Clear easy scans. One thing I would like to see changed is the cropping tool. I hate how it is not at a right angle. It can crop uneven because it has no lines or guidelines on if it’s straight. It only does one side at a time instead of the 2 so you can make sure it’s even. This would be a great update.

### 5/5 — Works great

*2021-05-10, version 2.1*

Easy to use and send many scans of files. No problems or glitches.

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2021-04-20, version 2.1*

Used all the time for over 2 years

### 5/5 — Scanbee is much better than traveling with a full sized scanner

*2021-03-27, version 2.1*

I am on the road a lot. Timesheets are due weekly. This is a lifesaver 😀

### 5/5 — No compatible

*2020-11-10, version 2.1*

This app it’s not compatible with IOS 14, I am having problems and unable to open the app and see my documents

### 5/5 — Best document scanner out there!

*2020-05-16, version 2.1*

I’ve had this Scan Bee App for years on my iPhone and it never disappoints. I travel a lot with my business and don’t carry a scanning computer and printer with me ever- just my phone and this app- very professional in every aspect!

### 5/5 — It worked when needed

*2020-03-27, version 2.1*

Did what I needed it to do when I needed it to do it.

### 5/5 — Must have utility

*2020-01-28, version 1.4*

I wish I had $1 for everyone I've told about this GREAT app. I use it almost daily for home and work.

Scanning documents at home for filing on computer to business use including competitive intelligence gathering 

After scanning, email as attachment and away you go

A copy is left on your app until YOU delete it

Hope developers leave this app alone as it works GREAT "as is"
