Paid Version, I used this for free for a year. it can bulk take pictures of recipients ans convert to .pdf on your phone. super easy to use. can convert pics to word as well. Best app I have ever used for scanning different things for my job. I really got it to scan my ID and SSN cards. it has done so much more than that.

Bait & Switch scam!! The receipt feature disappeared after I paid for a subscription!! I hit the receipt analyzing limit, so I subscribed for a year because it seemed like something I would use every day. For some reason, the interface changed after I subscribed (???) and I couldn't find the receipt feature anymore. It used to show up right after the option to scan IDs. Now it's nowhere to be seen. I'm so annoyed that I can't use the ONE thing I paid for. I'd give this ZERO stars if I could.

Update: I've used this for two years now (free version) and it works great. I use it for work to quickly digitize docs. I scan about for documents per month. Used once. So far it's easy, user-friendly, free, and looks professional. The only downside to the free version is that all scans come with a watermark that says something like "Scanned by CamScanner". It's like $5 /month (ish) to upgrade to remove that. Meh.
