Comments on PhotoScan by Google Photos for Android
★★★★☆Marcus· Jun 19, 2026
I've been quite happy with this for a few years. Good for a quick scan on the fly. It's not meant to archive masterpieces. I use it mostly for miscellaneous docs for work, household paperwork, etc. With a little care, I've been able to get a good enough scan to edit a rough document-which is fine for my work. We ain't fancy.

I like this app because it's better than using your phone's camera to scan old paper photos.

2.\nNights ago I was able to find photos from November 11th 2016. The next day, I am not able to find them. And today, I still cannot find them

UPDATE: 03-13-26 I think, it depends on the Name Brand+Model of the phone used. Never got this app to work! It starts by telling you to move the Circle, but doesn't + will not follow your finger as you try to slide the "Circle" to 1 of 4 solid dots in the corners of your phone screen, using the order shown in "Here's How To Scan" but doesn't move, with your finger. End result of each attempt causes white pop-up window to display "Scan NOT Completed" < with NO INDICATION OF WHY.

The addition of mandatory framing watermarks ruins a previously good application.
★★☆☆☆MK Kadavath· May 29, 2026
Outdated app for the AI era. Manually clicking 4 corners to scan a single photo is frustrating and time-consuming. Google should either update it with automatic AI scanning or remove it from the Play Store.
