Lacks Search

MAlasyam on

Australia

It’s a fantastic app for scanning and storing. Its ability to trim the documents against the background is awesome. I use it almost everyday. The only complaint is I can’t search through the file names I saved the scans in iPhone. That would be awesome. Please add that feature. Also sometimes the OneDrive authentication gets disconnected and getting it reconnected is very finicky and frustrating

Very good

Great app, let down by Onedrive sign-in issues

As a scanner app this is great. Accurately identifies document borders and captures high quality images. However upload to Onedrive is basically useless. Constantly asking me to sign in to Onedrive. Given that you have to have long passwords these days it's pretty much unusable, even with a password manager. If you want to use this app for scanning use one of the other upload options. Shame as Onedrive is my main cloud storage repository.

Broken now for organisational users

Requires Intune App SDK 19.7.1, is there a product manager asleep at Microsoft?

Cannot save to my MS Outlook contacts?

Looks good then failed

Jeffbot11 on

Australia

All looked good when scanning until time to save the scan. Went around in circles. Weird login request. Confusing questions about accessing photos. Left me hanging in a weird screen with a view of recent scans. Just an overall fail and can’t be bothered pursuing it.

Automatic wows

Australia

I wish there was a way to stop the automatic cropping. It is not needed because he can just move the camera closer or further away to crop it.

Quota limit

Australia

Keeps giving me an error about hitting my quota, even though I have enough space in OneDrive. Reinstalling does not help and there is no help online from Microsoft to resolve issue.
