Adobe Scan Customer Insights

1. I uninstalled this POS the same day, and somehow lost over 100MB of storage in the process despite not having 1 file on my device to show for it.Its the best in the free scan apps but when the book has a table near the top, it will treat that as the border which would distort the page dramatically.

2. My review is 4 of 5 stars, only because I have not fully utilized all of the features, but I will make a concentrated effort to do so very soon, and update the rating as needed (likely to a perfect 5).Ok, it took me some time to sync this with my Google account (may have just been an internet issue), but once that was done, it was easy-peasy.

3. Overall, I highly recommend Adobe Scan to anyone looking for a reliable and efficient scanning app.Edit, third time... Last update was remedied two or three updates after it hit.

4. I lost count after the second... But it is once again back to normal, aside from some UI changes, order of operations changes, etc... Which do still throw one who's grown accustomed to the way it's been a bit off here and there, but it's functional once more, as it should be.This is soooooo useful.

5. I will likely not use it for OCR or multiple page, but seems great for those single page emergencies!For the basic nature of my needs, this app is remarkably good.

6. Well done, Adobe!I have been using Adobe Scan for a few months now and I am blown away by its capabilities.

7. It's the visual version of switching to a different language each time the screen changes.Neat idea, awful execution.

8. On top of being able to backup the images to Google Drive, it's something anyone who needs to digitize documents needs.I'm never completely sure what I need to do to get an image into pdf and sent.

9. It's actually like magic how well it recognizes the border of a paper and perfectly gets a photo and straightens it from nearly any angle, like it actually feels like I went and scanned it on a digital scanner but so much easier.

10. I love that it automatically detects the edges of documents and adjusts the lighting to ensure that the scan is perfect.

11. Every time I went to save the PDF of what I scanned, the app crashed, and more often than not, it lost my progress.
