★★★★★
Great for saving documents to PDF when you don't have a printer that can scan
★★☆☆☆
Excellent app... until...an update forces all scans to be stored to the cloud. No. No. No. I want the confidence to know my documents are where I put them....ON MY DEVICE. I want control over where they go. I will share them as needed. Forcing all scans to automatically to be stored on the cloud turned this app into a no-go for me. Will be looking for alternatives now.
★★☆☆☆
I installed, app forces me to add one drive to continue using it to make scans and see my older scand. We will not be bullied into using one drive.
★★☆☆☆
They say they are retiring this and trying for force using OneDrive scanning which is less capable and can only do PDF. It looks I'll be ditching them both.
