FineReader Pro Customer Insights

1. This is a glaring omission.Very Nice OCR Feature , Surpassing all other competitors, Only thing that keep it from being my daily use is that I can't move pages from one document folder to another, That's the basic functionality , devoiding such high end app from these basic function is scar to it.Changed score from 5.

2. Also, even if you opted not to save the original file, after a few days you will find a copy in your gallery and if you delete them, you will lose the PDF files from the app.It works better than other apps I have tried.

3. Nevertheless it saves lot of time recognizing complex formatted documents (with digit and text tables, lists, pictures, columns, etc)The app used to be able to scan well.

4. I switched even if i paid for this app, just because of the quality and other features like cleanup, where you fix the edges.Works well, but no "select all"!? Seemingly the only way to select all your files is plugging your phone into a computer.

5. If you disabled the option to save the original file, if the pictures need to be cropped or retaken, you have to scan everything from the beginning.

6. The interface is not quite convenient: no "open document" button to load an existing pdf for recognition (but you can do it using "share" function from file explorer).

7. Finally, I scanned a poor copy of a 285 page book, but it wouldn't share to email or anywhere else - just stalled in processing.

8. I imagine this wouldn't be helpful for anything handwritten either but I haven't tried.It's easy to use, but lacks contrast, brightness and saturation sliders.

9. Scanning itself is fine but capturing text from printed book pages wasn't great.

10. From loyalty and recommending Abbyy's apps, I started to hate Abbyy company for their attitude to private customers.

11. I might as well just take pictures of the books and save the $60.After taking the pictures, you can't make zoom in order to see if they are good.
