Comments on Adobe Scan AI PDF Scanner, OCR for Android
★★★★☆Anmol Shingare· Oct 4, 2026
Reporting a bug: When I use '/' a slash to name a file it just says that "Couldn't save the file" instead of asking to not have such special characters in the name of the PDF
★★★★★Bbhavani· Oct 9, 2026
It's very easy to convert pics in to PDF. I am using from more than 6 years this app. Very helpful.
★★★★★Muhammad Al-Mahdi· Sep 22, 2026
This is undoubtedly one of the best cross-device scanner apps available on the Play Store 😄. It offers some very useful features, and the integration with Adobe Acrobat, along with its credibility as part of the Adobe Suite, makes it a compelling choice. The main drawback is the subscription cost, whether monthly or yearly.
★★★★★Daudi Kazungu· Oct 10, 2026
It's clear images are appealing. I can recommend it for everyone.
★★★★★Ale C Alvarez· Sep 21, 2026
This app works great. Just scan your documents and share as a student or even work.
★☆☆☆☆Madhav Phade· Oct 15, 2026
Before today its working accordingly my wish or what I want to scan and PDF it works in more than 10 papers but now it's charging for more than 4 Pages. Why? I am dissatisfied. Now I am thinking about to Uninstall this app. So much disappointed. Just share the post, and you can get 7-day premium for free When I work on the application repeatedly, this message appears; please let me know if there's any solution to this?
★★☆☆☆me· Sep 28, 2026
It was great before. Now they have removed the Save button, and replaced it with a free trial button. I could not save the file after scanning 24 pages. This kind of user hostile design ruined a perfect working app.
