Additionally I paid for the “forever” license and I can’t get shareable links. Might be asking for a refund because I can’t access the premium features. ### 1/5 — X *2025-06-09* Ridiculous keep charging money even I cancelled the subscription. ### 1/5 — Não é bom. *2025-05-21* Ridículo ter que pagar pra baixar o arquivo… ### 1/5 — Slow and charges you to use *2025-05-19, version 1.7.5* Very frustrating experience as it does not let you know that you have to pay in order to do anything with the scans you’ve made. Also quite slow and crashes often. ### 1/5 — High hope / disappointed *2025-05-17* Guess you have to buy it for it to be any good. ### 1/5 — Caro *2025-05-11* La descargué con la idea de scandal un documento pero la app pide pago desde que el inicio. Deberían anotar que van a hacer un cobro antes de descargar esto ### 1/5 — Fausse application gratuite *2025-04-21* L’application ne vous permet pas d’utiliser vos documents scannés. Donc vous pouvez les créer mais … après il faut payer. L’application est donc payante et est mensongère sur sa gratuité. ### 3/5 — Buggy *2025-04-08* Didn’t realise you had to have premium to share any of the files, paid the £9.99 in hopes of getting a link, instead i keep getting sent back to buying premier, which when I go to do again says I already have it…. Then why don’t I have a link available… I also managed to send a document reduced in quality but it wouldn’t have it for the highest quality. I’ve restored purchase and no change; help would be nice as I will be using the app frequently from now on since I’ve already paid ### 5/5 — Simply Fantastic *2025-03-10, version 1.7.5* A scanner that’s always with me. I can scan anything I need, anytime. ### 5/5 — Flexible Settings *2025-03-05, version 1.7.5* The ability to adjust brightness and contrast is just fantastic. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Stupid app. *2026-03-28* You finish all your scanning then it locks you behind a paywall. Stupid. ### 1/5 — No access to files *2026-02-19* I can’t access the files I spent ages photographing. I’m not impressed. If you can’t see what you’ll get out of the app without paying, how do I know it works? So no good. ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2026-02-13* Makes you scan all your documents and tries to get payment when you share. ### 1/5 — U need to pay *2026-02-06* Its not free app ### 1/5 — Frechheit! *2025-12-17* Ich hab mir die App heruntergeladen um ein Dokument zu scannen, das hat auch sehr gut funktioniert, als ich es dann aber in meinen Fotos speichern wollte war ich schockiert, da man dafür bezahlen muss! Die App hat keine besonderen Funktionen also gibt es auch keinen Grund etwas zu bezahlen! Da ich das Foto aber brauchte habe ich einfach einen Screenshot gemacht. Frech! ### 1/5 — Impossible de scanner *2025-12-02* Dommage qu’on puisse pas mettre 0 étoiles parce qu’ils vous laissent scanner les documents tous mais à la toute fin pour pouvoir envoyer ou enregistrer le pdf c’est soit tu paye soit tu paye tous pour l’argent alors éviter de perdre votre temps avec cette appli ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-09-10* It’s £9.99 a month to scan a document. It’s just a rip off. ### 1/5 — Spent lots of time to create documents and then find out that it’s not free *2025-08-20* Spent lots of time to create documents and then find out that it’s not free ### 1/5 — Nicht kostenlos *2025-07-04* Nicht kostenlos ### 1/5 — Have to pay to share files *2025-06-22* I scanned every page just to be met with a pay wall, greedy, greedy app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Organized Materials *2025-06-02* Helps me organize materials by project or language — makes finding files way easier. ### 5/5 — Clear interface *2025-05-24, version 1.7.5* The interface is clear from the first glance. ### 5/5 — Contrast control *2025-05-16, version 1.7.5* The contrast adjustment feature is a real help when dealing with older documents. ### 5/5 — Family photo scanner *2025-05-09* I’ve been scanning old family photos. The results are better than I expected especially in colour mode. ### 5/5 — Perfect for study *2025-05-08, version 1.7.5* The black and white mode is great for reading text. Tags help organise content by subject and topic. Having access across devices is a big plus for study and seminars. ### 5/5 — Family Archive *2025-05-07* I use it to archive family documents — results are excellent. ### 5/5 — Time-saving *2025-05-06, version 1.7.5* Perfect app if you value your time. ### 5/5 — Used daily *2025-04-14, version 1.7.5* I use it all the time. ### 5/5 — Organised documents *2025-04-12, version 1.7.5* Helps me keep documents well organised. Everything is easy to find and structured. ### 5/5 — Heaps of Features *2025-03-15, version 1.7.5* I love that you can edit pages and move them around easily. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
