WorldPenScan Customer Insights

1. I just don't know why a simple scanning apps need to be given permission to my location,my contact before I am able to use it.(after all I have paid for the scanning device and app is just an interface) It feel too creepy and unsettling to feel that you are constantly being monitored by this app and loose a lot of what you value such as privacy and choice.Hi Support, thanks for your advice, my pen scanner is able to work again and it scans perfectly although not all the words scan correctly but it has saved my time in daily tasks for data input.

2. Apparently It will not work with the Chromebook and should not be advertised as such.It's not connecting .. It's showing incorrect passkey if i enter 1234 in my device ..my device is OnePlus 6 It connects to other devices without any problem but its not connecting to my device...plz helpapp did not work anymore after automatic updateCan't connect.

3. When I tell you it was a struggle, it was like Hulk Hogan vs Andre the Giant! Took me over 10 attemps to download and almost 3 days! Now that I've done it, it's outdated!! I have yet to use the scan pen that this is to be paired with!! If this ends up being like Godzilla vs Mothra.

7. When translating sentences from Japanese to English, the ouput (produced by google translate) does not contain yomi-kata.

8. By the way, can you advise how can I connect this scanner to window 10 wirelessly?The absolute hardest download I've ever experienced.

9. To get how each kanji word is read (yomi-kata), I have to copy the output and paste it on google translate websites.
