Comments on OSS PDF Document Scanner, OCR for Android

★★★★☆ Mohan Pokhrel · Jul 1, 2026
This app is very fantastic. The performance of app is excellent. I am not a developer, but I want to give my suggestion to look its interface look Borden and convenient. Please add I'd card scanning, QR code scanning and document print feature. Keep the app functions in the front page as app interface categorically like camera scan, photo from gallery, document from phone, I'd card scan, book scan, PDF compress, OCR, single scan, batch scan, print or whatever functions comes in the future.
★★★★★ Yeshua D'Costa · Feb 9, 2026
It's a pretty good app. I have been longing for a good open source document scanner. Good job Akylas.
★★★★☆ Christopher MM · May 13, 2026
Update: "PDF export settings" first only option shown: 'color'. Now also 'b/w'. I miss: 'grayscale'. But PDF file of same size?! -- Thanks for this excellent tool! Minor observations: Auto scan kind of breaks the batch-mode. Also is weak to auto-detect document borders for cropping (inefficient batch scan). 'Storage Data' setting only has single fixed option: SD Card. Can't find where my scans are stored: Which folder?
★★★★★ Bill Brasky · Nov 10, 2025
By far best in class for scanning apps. Tried microsoft Lens, about 16 of the other top scanning apps, this is the ONLY one that by far and away meets my requirements of Nextcloud sync, PDF save and scan quality/contrast
★★☆☆☆ Toufiqur Rahman · Jan 10, 2026
Was looking for an alternative for Cam Scanner and Microsoft lens but filter is not good enough, no cloud (drive/one dive, etc.) integration UI is Great 👍 some filters are useless (sepia, invert) or less used, but they are at the fingertip whereas the enhanced feature is somewhat hidden under a menu. The filters are hit-and-miss. From consumer point of view most used filters are Normal, Enhance (must use in-house AI to increase visibility of text, crispness)[magic colo], No shadow, BW
★★☆☆☆ Pablo Klein Bernard · Apr 9, 2026
That was an OK scanner app, until it stopped working on my phone (Xperia 1 IV) after an update, couldn't handle phones with multiple lenses. Also, why sharing is JPG by default. Whe a document is scanned as opposed to photographed it because I want a printable PDF file with the right adjustments to look good on print.
★☆☆☆☆ . · Jul 1, 2026
Such a terrible app. Often won't recognize document and when it does, can't scan multiple pages and when you try to merge the separate scans into one PDF document, it does it in the reverse order, with the last page first, with no option to reorder it! And it struggles to scan pages with one paragraph of content on it. All that labor only for me to discard it and start again after finding a better app. Sigh.
★☆☆☆☆ Adrian Ramos Peon · Nov 9, 2025
Continuously crashes on a Pixel4a. Can't capture a single image. Couldn't test any of the functionality due to this.
