[Features of ScanSnap Cloud]
ScanSnap Cloud functionality for the Wi-Fi-supported ScanSnap(*1) provides users an easy way to scan directly to their favorite cloud services without the need for a computer or mobile device. After quick configuration, ScanSnap Cloud works intelligently behind the scenes to automatically sort scans into four categories: documents, receipts, business cards and photos, to make scanning easier than ever before.

### 1/5 — Cloud option barely works

*2023-06-15*

Scanning to ScanSnap cloud and automatically downloading to Dropbox basically works, but just try to clean up the files… There is no “select all” so one has to click on every single file to mark it for deletion. And then… both Mac and iOS time out complaining about network speed  (I’m on Gigabit Ethernet) AFTER EVERY FILE. At most one file is deleted after this. Add endless confirmation dialogs without keyboard shortcuts and you are looking at an hour of work to delete 100 files.

**Developer response:** Fujitsu would like to investigate this issue. Please search for “Fujitsu Scanner Contact Number” on Google and contact our Technical Assistance Center. We look forward to hearing from you!

### 1/5 — iPad version useless

*2022-12-10, version 1.7.0*

Cannot log in to ScanSnap Cloud using valid account. Portrait orientation only. iPhone version works but takes nearly one minute to delete a single file.

### 4/5 — Once it works, it works

*2022-11-01, version 1.6.2*

It is complicated to setup. Once it links to the cloud storage, it works. The control level is less sophisticated from the USB connection with the ScanSnap organizer.

### 1/5 — A security risk

*2020-03-25*

The service wants full access to my Google Drive. This is a major security risk.

### 1/5 — Horrible design

*2019-12-31*

The app and service is an abomination. Fire the team and start over.

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2019-03-17*

Does not work, at all. Useless.

### 4/5 — Ugly but functional

*2019-01-28*

The main functionally seems to work OK, which is more than some apps. Ugliness takes a star away. :-)

### 3/5 — The bare minimum

*2018-09-24*

The app works. It’s hideous, it doesn’t support the X-style screens, and its clunky as hell, but it works.

### 1/5 — Not working

*2018-03-26*

Problem uploading. Defective. They need to do a fix ASAP

### 1/5 — Complete waste of money

*2017-11-29, version 1.2.1*

Frequent crashes and loss of data
