Comments on SlideScan - Slide Scanner App for Android
★★★★★Jesse Johnson· Nov 13, 2023
Very easy to use, did an excellent job restoring photo slides using a Klim K2 scanner.
★★★★★Angela Sweet· Jun 13, 2024
I have numerous slides to scan and save to the cloud. This app works well! You do need to use either a computer screen or some kind of light table/source to backlight the slides.
★★★★★Yvette De Jager· Jan 9, 2026
Awesome little App! Scanning 100s of inherited slides so much simpler now.
★★★★★A Google user· Jul 27, 2024
Bring old slides to life and the digital age.
★★★★★M R (esbm308)· Apr 23, 2025
This one of the best slide scanners that I have used. It's very quick, and it crops and straightens automatically. Now, if I can hold the phone steady, I'll have it made.
★☆☆☆☆Ant B· Dec 31, 2025
Very disappointed. First the app somehow tricked me into buying a monthly subscription when all I wanted was the 3-day trial-not good! Also, I used my Samsung tab A8 as a white screen. Scans picked up the screen pix elation. Also, very difficult to manually scan a negative (focus). Color rendering after the scan was poor quality. Don't waste your time or money on this app if you want to scan slides.
★☆☆☆☆Alberto Munoz· Jun 30, 2025
This app is totally useless and a waste of money. You can't control the resolution of the images, so even though I have a phone with a 12MP camera, the resulting images are only 650 KB in size, like a 1MP camera. The images are uploaded to aws cloud without telling you upfront, so you upload from your phone and then download from your desktop, which is sitting next to you, to view them, nonsense. I just bought a diapositives viewer and scanned them with the phone camera, no app needed.
★★☆☆☆Manuela Brosi Frei· Jun 26, 2025
3 days trial is not enough when they ask 44 CHF/year or a one time (!!) payment of 60 CHF with the small print "valid 2 years". Worst of all, this is only for slides and if you happen to have negatives too you have to buy their Film Scan App for the same amount. A rip-off. Would work ok otherwise. Except for the automatic cropping that can't be turned off and keeps getting it wrong. Images that would be fine as scanned are cropped and have to be edited and recropped by hand.
★☆☆☆☆Joshua Baakko (Model Railroad Tips)· Dec 4, 2024
This app will take EVERY step to charge you to focus on the slide it's self. I can literally get it to focus, and it'll take a photo of my thumb holding my slide...
