The productionAssist supports you in the workplace organization and the execution of individual work steps in the production of your furniture - along your production process. So you always have an up-to-date overview of all orders, including the relevant additional information for the respective process step. At the same time, you can use the wizard to print your labels for each component directly and receive feedback on orders, the tools required, and much more. That means: productionAssist provides the right information, at the right time, in the right place. productionAssist Cutting for plate processing In this cutting assistant, you can easily select your next cutting plan. You can print your labels with a click. This means that every part is clearly identified - at the same time the label provides the processing information for your edge banding machine and your CNC processing center. Most important function: - Optimization of the cut regardless of the type of the cutting saw Your advantages: - Guided manual cutting - Use of labels (all your data available) - Can be used for existing cutting saws - no matter what type In the future we will expand this function - then we will support you with the HOMAG productionAssist also when sorting components of your furniture and the subsequent assembly will then be even easier.

Turn paper into clean PDF and PNG files on your iPhone or iPad. Point the camera at a page and scandango finds the edges, straightens it, cleans it up and reads the text. Everything happens on your device. SMART NAMES AND KEY DETAILS Apple Intelligence reads each scan and names it for you, like "Electricity Bill, October 2026" instead of "Scan 2026-10-01 0915". It picks out the dates, amounts and reference numbers that matter, and adds a due date to Calendar in one tap. On iPhones without Apple Intelligence, scandango names scans from their first line of text. SCAN IN SECONDS Single Page saves each scan on its own. Multi-page keeps related pages together. Add pages to a scan from your library at any time, and your unfinished scans stay saved. CLEAN, STRAIGHT PAGES Auto evens out lighting and shadows and sharpens text, while checking it hasn't lost detail or changed color. Crop, rotate, reorder and undo edits. Choose Color, Grayscale, Black and White or Original. On iOS 27, Flatten Curved Page straightens pages from books. FIND ANYTHING Search your library by name, by any word in a scan, or by kind of document, such as "receipts" or "letters". Select and copy text with Live Text. SIGN, SORT AND KEEP TRACK โข Sign & Mark Up: sign, write and highlight on any page with Apple Pencil or your finger. โข Smart Folders: receipts, bills, letters and more, sorted into folders as you scan. โข Bill Reminders: a reminder before a bill is due, from the date on the page. โข Expenses: receipts, invoices and bills in one list with totals, ready to export as a spreadsheet. SAVE AND SHARE Searchable PDFs, PNG images, text files, PDF passwords, custom page sizes and margins, and batch export. Save to Files or Photos, or share with any app. Open scandango from Shortcuts, Control Center or a Lock Screen widget. BUILT FOR IPHONE DUO AND IPAD Open iPhone Duo and scan on one side while your pages build up on the other. On iPad, your library sits in a sidebar beside the scan you're working on, with tools at the top, keyboard shortcuts and drag and drop. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, ads or subscription, and every feature is free. Your scans, their text and Apple Intelligence all stay on your device unless you choose to share them. Requires iOS 26 or later. Smart names and summaries need a device with Apple Intelligence.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: scandango at every 5 days against productionAssist's every 5 weeks. productionAssist's advantage is iOS requirement (16.0 vs 26.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
