Simply Amazing

Excellent app that balances simplicity and power. My only feature request: please allow users to set a default storage location in the settings.

Great App

Simple and useful

I wish it was possible to permanently turn off the automatic shutter, but otherwise it’s a decent simple scanning app. Does the job.

Response from developer

Unfortunately this is controlled by Apple and doesn't seem to be possible to permanently turn off, but: 1) there is a button to turn it off once per one scan session 2) one tactic I use is to immediately point the camera to nothing if I need to turn the page or pick up other docs
