Reviews for TurboScan™: PDF scanner

Aaron Schettler

Update: I just received a pdf scan from a competitor "genus" scanner app. This is still better. You can also take photos of documents people send you and convert to PDF happy going on 3 years. This is a high quality and fast smartphone scanner. Has a great feature for eliminating distortion. 1 and 1/2 year later stll a great app. its the fastest way to scan 1 page douments pictures or receipts. Probably up to 3 pages would be faster than plugging in the scanner.

Great for quickly scanning documents and receipts. My only complaint is the limited number of options for page size selection for creating PDFs. I was scanning some notecards and would have liked the option to save a 3x5 or 4x6 size. I suggest adding a custom entry option for these situations.

I tried scanning the same one page two different times. First time ended up with a circular spatter of blacklight fluoresce around the outer third of the page (which was odd as just regular LED lights in ceiling). Second attempt produced a crisper scan than another app I tried and was simple to email to myself. Unfortunately you cannot name the document when scanning it (other than appending date/time). This is a requirement for me so will uninstall.

Hanging onto app, to practice with it. Love how quickly and easily it saves my work to Dropbox. (Made a folder for it, and files auto-save there.) I have a new LG V30 phone. Snapshops I've taken of docs to PDF, isn't perfect (yet). MY FAULT, LIKELY, not taking snaps the best distance away from source. ***When I snapped (using the 3-pic option) my brief handwritten grocery list, the result wasn't crisp. Maybe app uses only low dpi, causing a slight blur. Worth more testing, to find out!😊

This app worked great until about two months ago or so. I can scan things just fine, but when I click the 'Send to PDF' option, it creates an email, and appears to show the attachment with the email, but when I click the 'Send' button on the email, it sends without the attachment. This is most disappointing... it's an app that I had come to rely on for a lot of record-keeping, and may now have to delete from my phone if it isn't promptly resolved.

Takes several tries and at least 10 minutes to receive the scanned document after emailing it. Not happy about paying for something that hardly works. UPDATED 06/25/19: I have figured this app out. I only take and send 1 page at a time, much faster this way. Also, after emailing it once, I wait about 30 seconds, then go to email it once more. Seconds after you pretend to email a 2nd time, it will show up in your inbox. You can send the 2nd email but you will only receive 1.

Useful app. It's been very helpful for scanning a number of documents. It does a reasonably good job of determining page boundaries and even when it fails (or you don't want a full page), it is easy to adjust the boundaries to what you do want. I haven't had issues with moving the documents off of my phone either. Well worth the low price to upgrade.

Incredible, well worth the price of the full version, I use it at least once a week. super helpful for artists who prefer to sketch/draw by hand, much easier to use this scanner than to upload to photoshop and manipulate. Also super helpful for students who need to scan textbooks, packets, or other assignments. The ability to email, convert to jpg, or convert to pdf straight from the app is a life saver. Would like to see png/transparency options included in future updates. Highly recommend!

Easy to learn, easy to use! This is the scan app I've been hoping for. No ongoing monthly payments - a simple $5 for unlimited scans. The scanned files on my phone are easy to find and easy to move and manipulate in my laptop. I learned not to manipulate them on my phone (changing files names, for example) because the changes are held in a properties file for each document, and therefore not "sticky" when I move the files.

I've been using this app for years. In my opinion this is the best app for scanning documents and exporting them in various files formats. I have used this on both IOS and Android and my opinion stays the same. For me, scanning documents every day and exporting them as .PDF files is a laborious process. Using turboscan has mitigated that and made this allot more easier. The UI is very easy to navigate. I have not run into any bugs for the past 7 or 8 years of me using this.
