Community ManagerWhat’s new: Scanner App
There’s nothing worse than forgetting an idea, or losing an important piece of paper. The one thing we never lose, and usually don’t forget is our phone - so now with the Dropbox Scanner App, you can...
Just downloaded the app tonight. Tried to use it to scan some receipts for an insurance claim.. got 2 ok scans, 1 barely acceptable and the last I just gave up after over 10 tries and no useable scan. It is something wrong in the conversion to pdf , because the initial capture looks ok.
this is a great idea and I love that it connects right to Dropbox. I often have trouble saving directly to Dropbox from my iPhone or iPad. I probably won't use until it is fixed.
- try the Office Lens app, from Microsoft. Although it has a flaw when converting a image taken with a rotated camera to a PDF, it does everything that this Scan app does, but saves to OneDrive. It's a bit tedious to have to copy documents from OneDrive to dropbox, but the scan quality is generally excellent.
