I've been using this app for years and also telling other people to use it, so this sucks.
If anyone else is looking for a replacement there's a Microsoft app called "Office Lens" that seems to do a really nice job and is as safe a bet as anything.
- curiousgal 7y agoI use Adobe Scan.
- eknkc 7y agoGoogle Drive has a scanner too.
- emmelaich 7y agoIt's amazing to me that so few people are not aware of the excellent scanning apps from Google. They work better, you're not expanding your privacy risk ... and they're free and integrated with Google docs etc. * namely, Drive Scan and Photoscan
- GordonS 7y agoNever heard of Google Drive Scan, but I can't find it in the Play Store either?
- shthed 7y agoIt's built into the Google Drive app, press + and scan. https://support.google.com/drive/answer/3145835 https://support.google.com/drive/answer/3145835
- girvo 7y agoI’ll vouch for PhotoScan. Great for digitising Instax shots!
- JohnJamesRambo 7y agoI use Google Docs all the time and need those and have never heard of them. Google is so frustrating sometimes.
- naruciakk 7y agoI had been using it until a FLOSS alternative showed up (Open Note Scanner), it was very annoying in terms of ads, but I'm surprised that is has some kind of malware inside
- Kovah 7y agoScanbot is another working alternative.
- 0xfaded 7y agoI was about to write something cocky like "I thought facebook had more installs than that" since the title didn't name the malware app. But damn, I'm (sort of) affected. I've had the paid version of CamScanner for years before the alternative existed. Apparently the paid version isn't affected, but it's still gone from my phone.
- fauigerzigerk 7y agoI use Genius Scan on my iPhone to scan documents that I need to archive (I think it's also available for Android). In addition to automatic cropping it fixes any distortions so the documents look as if they had been scanned with a flatbed scanner. It works really well for my purpose. (I have no affiliation with them, just love the app)
- elcomet 7y agoI'm just using the Dropbox app, scanning is included.
- yazan94 7y agoI've transitioned to using Adobe Scan a few months ago, and no complaints there
- smush 7y agoOpen Note Scanner in F-Droid has been serving my (admittedly limited) needs instead.
