### 1/5 — Waste of time

*2024-06-05*

This thing took a crappy picture and then wouldn’t allow me to do anything with the picture. It really needs $2.99.

**Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience. Please ensure all necessary permissions are granted for optimal performance. Thank you for your feedback that helps us improve our app.

### 1/5 — Scanner

*2023-12-17*

Scanned code now what is supposed to happen the instructions for use are non existent glad I have only 7 day trial

**Developer response:** We apologize for the inconvenience and we'll make sure to provide clear instructions on how to use the app in the future.

### 1/5 — So bad

*2021-07-21, version 1.7.26*

Very bad. Many other programs are free better more than it

### 1/5 — The pricing is abusive

*2021-07-20*

16$ per month for this. Seriously? This is abusive and you should feel bad about it.

**Developer response:** Hi there, we don't have monthly subscription. You are probably talking about yearly one, which is not that high compared to similar apps.

*2020-06-03*

Originally, I stumbled across this app by accident... But it turns out, this is exactly what I needed in my life! It helps me upload my real-life documents digitally and turn them in through Google Classroom. The scanner is such a great feature! I don’t know how I ever lived without it. 😂😅 To those of you who think I’m exaggerating here, lemme assure you- I’m not! It’s quick, simple to use, and perfect for any device. Definitely worth downloading. I hope this helps! I don’t normally write reviews, but this app deserves some recognition.

### 5/5 — Love it !

This pdf scanner app is easy to use and very useful ! I use the camscanner to keep documentation of important papers and I'm able to store them right in the app !! I definitely would recommend for first time users 🤗

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-12-14*

This app works great. It does everything you’d want a pdf scanning app to do. You can even save into separate folders which is very convenient.

### 4/5 — Does what it should

*2019-12-13*

Easy to use, simple, and to the point. Didn’t like how it automatically prompts for premium upon opening the app. Otherwise, solid pdf scanner
