It makes me sick of these programmers when they do not understand the subject of professional 3D scanning, but trying to make something as if they really know it. The Area, scanning function Does Not Work. This is the only useful function for which professional architects like me are willing to pay. And it simply says it doesn't work on your device. If you are doing something like this,make sure you make it workable on every device, and not only ones You have in your office. Leo
Reviews for iScanner - PDF Scanner App
← Back to iScanner - PDF Scanner Apptried it first today to import and sign a PDF. Worked well. Got encouraged to subscribe as I had to fill a PDF form. Man, for something simple, I had to jump through hoops. Decided to print, handfill and scan back. Asked for a refund. Seems to have a lot of features. You gotta have intuitive interface. Or you lose the clients!
Update - Removing 2 stars for 2 reasons. 1. The app made recently made me subscribe to an annual subscription if I choose to continue using it. Prior to this I had supposedly "purchased the app". I took a second star off because ever since the forced update to subscribe, the app isn't converting my photos into PDF files and sizing them down so I can email them. Prior to the update, the app worked fine. Now I have paid a subscription fee for an app I supposedly purchased and now doesn't work. 🙄
Counting isn't accurate enough. I decided to give this a try to count pills. I counted out 35 then used the app. 1st was close together random sides up. 28 was the count. I then ensured the same edge was up on each pill and tried again - 32. I moved them into groups of 5, total failure it counted 5. I only got one accurate result and that gave me false hope. I zoomed in on the letters on the pill and that only worked once. I could not reproduce the results.
I was hoping this worked. I really needed something to o count different objects. It would've been invaluable and I would've paid good money for this app. But once again Google isn't doesn't work like the ads. I took the pic then had to manually set the borders then it still got it wrong. If it can't count to 4 it definitely can't be depended on for a larger concentration of objects. Hope you do make an app that is accurate. I look forward to future attempts. Good luck
This app was pretty good and I've been using it for almost a year now because of online school. However, the amount of ads have slowly increased and now the only way you can have multiple scans on one file is if you buy the premium version. This change is recent (within the past day, as I was able to scan 12 pages just fine on friday) and extremely inconvenient, as my work is a lot more than just one page. I suggest finding a different app if what you need to scan is anything like my situation.
Does not work as advertised! Automatic count function is useless. Does not count anything ... instead of counting 30 pieces, it counted 4 . I would like a refund of my $34.99 "for life" subscription please. By the way, I keep getting blasted with an advertisement for $1.99 a month . I will say the find area of a room function sort of works . Anyway please let me know how to get my money back
1/19/24: I should have read the 1 ⭐ reviews. Free trial cost me $19.99 within the hour I cancelled. It wasn't what I expected so I cancelled within the hour and had been charged. I have the receipts that reflect the same. I expect a response and refund just as quickly as they took my money. 1/20/24 @ 6AM: There's still no communication regarding this charge during a Free Trial.
Used to be completely free, but I guess when there's a global pandemic and college kids gotta scan work, there's an easy buck to be made. Wasn't a fan of finding out that I have to now (after almost a year and a half use) pay to scan more than one page for a document while I was in the middle of scanning my exam. I'm off to find a new app to use 👎🏻.
Useless! I only got this app and this subscription to help me count objects at work. Tried several different palotz of items, not one time. Did it have it anywhere near correct! Take a picture of 64 items told me there were 7. Period take a picture of 28 items told me there were four. The app is absolute garbage for counting, didn't even try any other part of it. Thank you, and have a nice day.
They expect you to pay for an app that you can't save anything unless you remember to download it all to your phone as soon as you scan it. But my purpose for an app like this is to keep files in 1 spot to reduce clutter on my phone. Especially if I'm to pay for it. Don't really see any benefits of a paid subscription anyways. So if you have this and plan to switch phones or anything. Be sure to save everything outside this app!
I purchased a year plan after reading so many good reviews. I got it mainly for the counting portion of the app so I can do inventory faster at work. Well the counts are way off I don't understand why but I'm talking about taking a picture of 17 pieces of wood & the app gave me a count of 2 so that register. Please try to improve that. Otherwise the rest of the app is great but I can get plenty of apps that do the same for cheaper
Well..... To start with, how about having ANY of the app abilities accessible with the free trial. Second, no one cares about any of the extra options in the app the are standard with any phone on the market. This app was only needed to count items and augmented area calculations as advertised; which is almost impossible to do in the app regardless of how much money you throw at it.
Love this app BUT some changes are making it a little difficult to use now. I use app to send invoices i write up to my customers. Well I used to be able to add company name and address to these invoices without any issues. Now I have all kinds of issues trying to add company name. The cursor keeps moving wherever it wants to go and moving to end of the line and erases everything i just added. Its becoming a little frustrating when using. Other than that I love the app and I still use it.
This is one of those apps that autosubscribes you to its service. It is clunky and confusing. I don't m8nd paying for a good counting app but there are far better ones out there. I absolutely refuse to use a service that automatically forces you into a subscription after the trial unless you manually go in and cancel. There are far better options.
Watch out! I downloaded the iScanner - PDF Scanner App and went to try it out. As soon as you take a photo it takes you to the pay page where it offers a 3 day trial then a monthly and yearly plan. I picked a plan, with the trial option on. I was charged immediately. Every time I used it, it failed. Had good lighting, clear photo, etc. So I cancelled, but of course they don't offer a refund on what they charged you. Seems like a scam to me
I compared this to two other apps, and this fell right in the middle. The contrast was too low, using black and white helped. I wouldn't pay for a subscription over $12 a year. The AI features are completely non-functional or useless, I gave it a set of 50 things to count and it came up with a count of four. I'm going to try it free for a couple documents. The cloud storage is a big security problem particularly if you're using this for contracts for legal reasons, perhaps enough not to use this
I was ready to buy a yearly to this app, but it doesn't seem able to scan images, which is puzzling for a scanning app. I was very impressed with the doc scan. It does a great job clearing foggy text, and saving. Apparently, it can count,extract text, measure, using your camera, which I've not utilized. Those additional bells and whistles, are neat, I'm sure. But if it can't perform a basic image scan outside an ID, it's of less use than one which does.
I was excited for the 3 day trail due to there presentation on everything you can do with scanning a document, well 6 hours later, trying to apply filters that would tell me I would lose my AI customizations, I was basically left with few choices, the worst part was sending through PDF format to Abdobe all but 2 docs looked horrible! the sizing & angles were contoured it was the worst thing I ever saw, from the completed product they show you on their app, I don't recommend this app.
Response to Developer: No confusion, none. The app will not allow you to do anything until you set up the subscription. 3 days free, but "auto-renew". So not only do I have to remember to unsubscribe, but they already have my payment information. Original review: Looked pretty cool, but I could not even try it. Requires you to sign up for a subscription before even seeing the app. Too bad, looks like one I would have paid for if I could have just tried it out once.
