It's just hands down always works, captures scans quickly and efficiently. I use this app probably 10,000 times a day, I feel like. It's incredible, and the developers need to be praised for thoughtful design and UI. Keep up the good work! Super stoked on this app! A must-have for anyone with a phone. Period. The end. 🤙❤️🙏⚡️💪

A Staple

One of those apps that should be built in but isn’t. And the developer made it well. Pull it out, use it, move on with your day. Just works. For you have it til you need it. Life wouldn’t be the same without it. Other apps always have some tiny little catch. This one does not. Very “as advertised”
