Great app! A suggestion - please allow to search/filter/select docs that have been shared. I use Google Drive to store my scans but find it frustrating as I don't know which I have uploaded. I don't like using the auto upload feature. Also, if on intermittent connection provide ability to finish uploading selected files if it fails as the connection drops.

Used to be the best scanner available until an update took away the ability to manually click the shutter. The "auto" mode now often takes the shot before the document is ready to be scanned and frequently gets the shot with my fingers still in the frame. The number of times I have to redo a page because of this makes it unusable for me.

Latest Update to Smart Scan is a step backwards. I use this to scan truckloads of receipts and we used to be able to adjust crop lines immediately after the pic is taken. Now, it just takes the image (almost never autocrops at all) and commits it to the document. Have to back in to each page a d adjust one by one. Bring back the manual scanning option!

I like that this app let's you purchase a certain set of features (including automatically uploading scans to external cloud services, Google Drive, for instance) with a one-time payment. Most other document scanning apps would only offer subscriptions. Genius Scan works very well. Merely the color filters aren't working as well as the ones you'd find in some of the more popular solutions. Aside from that, though, I'd happily recommend this app ^^

This is the best scanning app, don't waste your time trying others. The border detection system is flawless and features excellent. Tip my hat to the devs. I do wish it displayed all available tags rather than having to type them out initially. This is the version to use if you have your own storage system in place so you don't have another subscription.

Why no auto-format option for files already in storage, and not just when using the camera? Worse, the document that I cropped and adjusted from a camera file looks much better then one taken with the app. And the app needs more "intelligence" to deal with skewed scans, paper unevenness and such. To reiterate, why no automatic skew correction?

I was so happy with the free version I happily paid for the app. I tried several others including MS Lens, and Adobe, spent too much time trying to align the image with the crop box. Using Genius Scan every page was perfectly aligned the first time. Easily created multi-page PDF's. From that point I simply emailed myself and uploaded the PDF's to my Google Drive. One thing that I did quickly learn. While using the app, it's best to turn off Auto-Rotate on your phone. Otherwise, your phone switches back and forth causing the pages to be rotate 90 degrees.

Been using this app for nearly a decade now. I'm not sure if the $5 I paid for the enterprise is necessarily worth the cloud features over the free version but I still use it regularly for scans to email. Update, I went to buy this for my daughter and found the price is now $25! Just to upload directly to the cloud? Wouldn't recommend at that price for that feature. The free version, if it stays free, is just fine.

I have quit using my multifunction printer since installing this app. Makes short work of putting my receipts together for expenses. Also great for scanning documents. 5/17/2020 update : Genius Scan quit expiring to my One Drive folders, which was part of my routine. I can no longer log into my OneDrive account. I have submitted a request to support two weeks prior and have had no response.

After scanning 12,000 pages of data for my PhD thesis, I love this app. It is truly genius. It identifies the edges of a document, crops, corrects the perspective, and converts to black and white. If you want to change any of that, you can adjust to your heart's content. In "batch" mode, which I used for my 12,000 pages (not kidding), if you turn pages or move around, it will wait, and then automatically recognize when the image is ready to scan again--and then scan the next one. Truly genius.

I have been using this app for years and years. It is extremely convenient being able to scan anything into a pdf with my camera, it has saved me many times. User experience is great and it is easy to use. Scans can be sent right to email, Drive, Dropbox, etc. I don't even remember what I paid because it was so long ago, but it's worth whatever they are charging for plus version, probably even more.

Features and options are not very impressive after purchasing the "+" version. Being able sort into categories would be very helpful, such as work, personal, trips, holidays, birthdays, etc. The option of backing up to a cloud is very nice in case your device becomes lost, stolen, or damaged. But when your are already paying for the app, and then discover you must pay additional subscription for the features, is a huge disappointment.

Simple, it does what you need it to (better than the competition), it doesn't crash and it uses NO resources when you are not using it. One of the few apps that you will keep using year after year. Update 12/2020 it is STILL one of my most used apps. Update 8/2022 it is STILL one of my most used apps. I tried ALL the scanning apps from the big-guys, they don't hold a candle to Genius Scan+

I love this app. It's great for scanning documents on the go, and I've recently begun using it to digitize my hard-copy photos. That, however, leads to the reason it's only getting 4 stars, rather than 5. While the app lets me scan the front and back side of the photos into one scan file, it won't let me import those scans as JPEG, only PDF. The hand-written notes on the back are just as important as the photos. Is there any way to enable multi-page sharing in JPEG?

I originally got this app for taking receipt images for expense reimbursements at work, which it was great for. But I've found it comes in handy for way more than I expected. It's very easy to use, and gives you a lot of options for storing, sharing, and exporting files. I use it for all of my scanning needs and also for helping keep track of important things I might need to access a copy of (like my driver's license or insurance card).

This scanner works great for documents, pictures. Easy to use. Simple. I'm not very tech-y. Easy to label and file and share. I used the free version until I saw how much I could use it so I got the Plus. I've been using for years. Yes. I recommend highly. Make sure you store correctly what is important for you to preserve so you don't lose it if you lose your phone.

Genius Enterprise is very good. I can almost guarantee you that you won't have any issues with using it. It gives you sorting options, many different exporting options, OCR for text recognition. Any time I use it facing it at any angle I captures it perfectly, very high clarity. I recommend this app for anybody that is organized and likes to keep electronic records of anything. The only suggestion that I would have to make is to allow more customization like colors within the User Interface
