One of the best scanner apps. I'm surprised it can do so many things. Document, Whiteboard, QRcodes, you name it. It also gives you the option to convert your scan into many different file types like images and word docx instead of just pdf. I rarely, if ever, leave reviews on Playstore but I really admire this app so I say thank you to the developers at Microsoft. Edit: Still a great app but I recently encountered a problem where the QR Code Scanner doesn't work at all. Please fix this issue.

It's disgusting that a Microsoft app sells ads that overpower the fone completely. Don't the Gates have enough money,? The least they can do is toss a few free apps out. I have to speed type this because the next parade of ads are about to start. Useless app if you can't use because ads overtake your system. I think it gave me a VIRUS TOO. WORTHLESS. GARBAGE.

I've been using this for years for receipts, business cards, and scanning documents. Anything I want to get the skew fixed on or to have cropped nicely/easily. I love that I can save to OneDrive, save as PDF or image. A go-to app you can't help but get attached to. Update on Dec 17, 2024: still great!
