Doc Scan Pro - PDF Scanner App Reviews

As a ForScore user (great app, btw!), I do a LOT of printed music scanning (for my own use only), and it needs to be pretty crisp, straight, etc. I own a venerable Epson flatbed, and an impressive Fujitsu sheet-feed duplex scanner. But they’re not always at hand, and occasionally I need something quick. So. I researched third-party reviews on the web, including some comparative reviews, and of course the reviews here in iTunes. Together with the promotional pricing earlier this week, I was sold, thinking that this “virtual” scanner might liberate me from my desk! Alas, no. It’s probably fine for receipts and other miscellaneous items, but then again, so is the iPhone’s camera - all by itself. I deliberately “scanned” some pages out of a stapled music folio, which meant lots of wavy pages. Doc Scan Pro edge/contour detection was accurate less than 50% of the time. And even if I went back and fiddled with the edges to match the contours, things still didn’t turn out as professionally as you’d expect from all the effort. Any hardware scanner would be returned as defective if it generated output like this. And even my flatbed is faster in regular use. So YES to the auto-generating PDF feature, and to the extensive sharing options. Nice to have. But a scanner (in the traditional sense), this is NOT. Don’t be fooled. I will use it only if I am desperate.

I use the scanner all the time for everything I need to scan whether it be for my computer or my iPhone or just to print out a form or letter. I find it a great help. The filing system is wonderful to keep everything organized. You can make your own file boxes to keep any Number of topics or subjects. I scan my objects up to dropbox which works very well. All in all a great system for scanning and saving documents.

Works as advertised

I use this app all the time to create beautiful documents with just a click scan your documents into your digital doc-files

Perfect for when you are out of the office! Works great!

Love it! So useful and easy!

Great app. Makes it easy to create pdf documents. Loving it

Just used it to scan all my tax docs and send them to my accountant. Wow, that was easy!

This app replaces my need to scan documents, save, and send them quickly. Its good!!

Not working well with any of the cloud based file sharing. I wouldnt trust this app, its not reliable at all.

Yes it is

The documents open up blank in Adobe reader!

It does the job and more. Im very happy with this application.

This is a wonderful program use it all the time

Very useful and would be good to add an OCR function.

As a frequent user of this app, I could not ask for more. Easy to use and navigate.

I wish it organized better. Allowing me to move docs to different folders, combine docs, etc

Second to none app

Works perfectly to upload documents and create attachments. Signatures look a little funny, but it works just fine if Im not home to print/sign/rescan. Ingenious product.

I can scan receipts and save them as PDFs for invoicing. It will correct most distortions manually, but the auto correct function doesnt work as often as Id like. I bought the pro version because I needed to save the PDFs to iCloud. Unfortunately, Its a two step process. I have to save the pdf to an application folder, then go in and upload to iCloud. They need to add the ability to save directly to iCloud.
