You are a pice of sh**, and your app also pice of sh***
★★☆☆☆
Had to buy the VIP on order to even use the form recognition, so I could scan some documents into a spreadsheet for work and kept running into a failed to connect to network error, so I was never able to get the information scanned over, had to spend eight hours transposing the date by hand. Please fix the bugs or refund me the $22 I was charged for the annual subscription.
★★☆☆☆
The app is more expensive than a mortgage on a house. The owner should drop the price drastically to attract customers
