Goodbye scanner!

I can't say anything against the product. You do not need to have a scanner, with your mobile phone and the application you can scan whatever you need. Moreover, you can share the scanned documents through the application.
Pros
It is an application that you can't have on your device. How many times do you need to "digitalize" a document? How many times must you scan a document? And, with smart working, with the people not more in the same physical location, exchanging documents is the normality. CamScanner is the response to all of these needs.
On top of the features, the product is easy to use: you can quickly and easily scan a document and send it.
Cons
The free version does not let you remove the watermark. This is the main limitation of the free product that you can overcome by buying the license.

Scanning with a camera
Reviewed on 05/08/2022
Pros
I'm amazed by the opportunity to have portable and easy to use scanner in my pocket, on my phone! It very useful for scanning, aligning, printing and editing documents. The greatest feature of it is that it is free. It is affordable for all regular users and can be easily upgraded with paid features when needed. I find it useful to be able to arrange the photos of documents and of other paper work in folders. I have used it successfully to store and classify my paper notes while studying.
Cons
In some cases, photos that I'm taking one after another are getting automatically sorted togetger in a separate folder by the app. I would like the app to have a feature for choosing whete to add the new photos to.

SHAME on YOU CAM SCAMMER
Reviewed on 03/07/2022
Cons
There is predatory advertising which YOU HAVE ALLOWED in the free version, which is a mimic of the working screen. When clicked, it takes you to an investment site. These people should not be allowed to do this. Sure, there are small letters saying advertisement but when you’re on the go, you click it thinking your are actually using the app but are taken to another site which is SAXO INVESTMENTS. Do something about this please! I have screen shots and an happy to share

Good app, aleays adding lots of new features
Reviewed on 18/01/2023
Generally a positive experience given its cost and multiple functions.
Generally a positive experience given its cost and multiple functions.
Pros
Love it's affordability, ease of use, and multi-functionality. There's a free use component in case you get the professional version, but it watermarks everything as a result. Have used it for years when doing freelance work.
Cons
My only issue that alot of times, I would have to retake photos that I wanted scanned. While it's great that the app takes into account of my angle of tkaing the photo or lighting situation, theres kind of learning curve to get the perfect scan from the photo. Wish there was end to end sharpness when taking photos of large blueprints
