It's a great scanner app with open source privacy. Easily scans, and has an option to converts images into PDF.

This is a decent app for scanning and ease of use. However, a few filters would bring this app among the toppers. As an open source, it's a very good app and deserves easily a rating of 4.3 to 4.4 upon 5. I am looking forward to the developers to bring the filters, if possible. Wouldn't mind paying up if the developers become intuitive and innovative enough, keep up the good work guys. NAMASTE!

Hi, I read all the reviews and downloaded it. But when I tried to scan an image, it goes properly till the cropping part. After I click on the tick mark, all I get is a gray screen. Nothing else. I tried reinstalling but it's the same every time. Am I doing something wrong? Edit: Let me clarify. The picture is a gray screen. I can move out and stuff. But the picture itself is just the gray screen. And I cannot export it. I tried importing a picture from gallery, and it's the same gray screen.

Some images don't get saved when quick scanning, even though they appear fine during confirmation. They also don't get cropped during quick scan, at which point I might as well just take pictures with a camera app...

Quite a frustrating experience with the app crashing every few scans/operations, the inability to delete certain pictures from a set and pictures not showing up in a series resulting in having to scan the set again. Every time the document list loads, the app has to iterate over the file list again, sometimes reverse sorting on name, sometimes regular order and every time a scanned set loads, the pictures have to be loaded in memory. There's no apparent cashes at work.

Man.the scans are of very low quality.text is all blurred .then what is the use.please improve the quality... If I want just cropping .there are many apps available.! Improve the scan quality.!

Very frustrating app to use Grateful for a free, ad-free scan app, however... I know the developers have designed the app to be minimalist but the lack of settings options on my phone is crazy. CHATGPT gave me many options to use settings including the obligatory Three Dots. Sadly for me there are no three dots visible. Have I inadvertently reduced the app's permissions? I checked permissions and have granted the necessary ones-all to no avail. The three dots are like the Scarlet Pimpernel.
