"Highly Useful Tool for Quick PDFS"
5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

The Pocket Scanner allows for a very quick and intuitive way to create PDF out of an image or by taking a picture of a document and simply editing the area that you want to be a PDF. Using a scanner to accomplish this is time consuming and not-so intuitive as various scanners have different software and programs, and is generally time-consuming. The organization within the app is solid as well, allowing for folders and a searchable system when there begins to be a lot of varying files for different projects.

Overall, it is the best phone scanning app I have used, having also tried the CamScanner app. It is a bit more intuitive and sleek. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

There are some paywalls to get to advanced features, but the base package does contain a lot. Some of the features seem questionable in terms of what the app asks to have access to at the start once downloaded. I have only dealt with the service team once, and it took a couple hours for a proper response, but my solution did end up getting solved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Well constructed app "
5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

I love how simple yet nice the applications design is. It is easy to find the camera button, and i love all the options available for coloring of the scanned document. Scanning apps are on the rise, and it is much more convenient than finding an actual scanner, which most people do not have in their house. The fact that it has an option to turn it into PDF form is great as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

Overall, i really enjoyed this application, however it can be a bit confusing navigating the app. Maybe instead of having many places to click for more options (like how there is some on the top and some on the bottom) have it all on one side such as the left side of the screen or all on the bottom. It will make it easier for older individuals to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Software."
5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

I really like the ease of use and how it can be used on your phone. It makes it really easy to use and scan documents on the go. Very simple especially if you do not have a scanner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

I dislike how the quality is sometimes impaired and that it can butcher signatures sometime and handwritten documents sometimes the handwriting does not appear. Overall I have had great experiences with it but it can sometimes just have bad resolution. I also dislike how I have to save as an image on the mobile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great software, but too many bells and whistles!"
5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

I love that the scanner auto-detects the edges of the pages, and how easy it makes it to scan multiple pages into a single PDF document. I LOVE the signature tool - I love how you can change the thickness and opacity of the pen so it looks like a real signature, and not a doodle on a snapchat photo. I like all the different export options - camera roll, email, document, message, etc. I also love how easy and intuitive it is to edit the image right in the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

I didn't like how much was going on when I first opened the app. It seems like there's a LOT of bells and whistles for something that should be simple and elegant … I download a scanner app because I need to scan, edit, sign, and export images. I don't need a cloud, a newsfeed, any additional subscriptions. Also, for one of my scans the edge-detection didn't work, and I had to manually crop the image myself. Not a big deal because the crop tool is so good, but it was weird that it didn't work for the one photo. Also I would kind of like the scan to automatically be taken once the edges are detected and the photo is focused, without me having to click the button. My bank app does this when I'm scanning checks to deposit, and I really like it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Useful!"
4/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

It scans my documents easily and many at a time. I use it to download my documents as a PDF and I can print whatever I have scanned which saves me time instead of wasting time walking to a scanner machine which is why its perfect for busy people who need to get work done quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

One major thing I dislike is how it will crash and not upload files to dropbox. Sometimes I find the app logging me out of my account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use and convenient "
4/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

Not only is it free to download onto IOS, but it’s also compatible with Google Docs and can even scan artwork easily! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

There are in-app purchases and the basic package is very basic and you’ll most likely end up having to purchase a more advanced package within the app for better ease of use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great app that’s convenient when you really need it "
3.5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

The app is very modern. I know for a fact it works great on Apple iPhones. It is very easy to use and has great easy to follow instructions for scanning documents you need converted into PDF “on the go”. I love the Kdan cloud that keeps everything easily stored in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

I wish the free version included a little more of what you are able to get with the paid subscription to use the app but other than that, I don’t have any dislikes about the app software or what it does, it’s very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Pocket Scanner is Great for Easy Scanning"
5/5
What do you like best about Pocket Scanner?

I work in an office with only one scanner that is password protected and all of our scanning needs to go through our Secretary. Pocket Scanner has 100% solved this problem for me and allows me to scan all my documents from my phone quickly and efficiently. What I like best is that it turns every document into a handy PDF and then I can also search my files at a later time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Pocket Scanner?

Sometimes the interface can seem confusing. It takes some time to get used to but it does come with a quick guide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
