CamScanner 2.4.0.8

Get a comprehensive scanning solution with document management capabilities for use on the go
Extending the range of collaboration when working on common projects, regardless of the platform at the user's disposal, document scanners come equipped with more and more sharing capabilities that make information exchange a less challenging endeavor.

Windows Phone users can enjoy the benefits of having an app like CamScanner onto their devices, as this utility aims to offer a full range of features for acquiring data, converting it into a universal format and transferring the output to all the interested parties.

Smooth interface offering neat content structuring

The application has a very clean interface, with all the necessary functions at hand, neatly placed inside the menus that can be accessed with one tap or a single swipe. The quality of the scans is impressive, as the app puts to good use the on-board camera of the mobile phone.

The document organization is flawless and CamScanner comes with a few default categories, allowing you to add new ones on the spot. The very responsive search displays the results as you type, so there is virtually no waiting time to get the results you are looking for.

Advanced feature set for scanning, editing and managing papers

After capturing the snapshots, you can save the document immediately or proceed to use some of the enhancements that are included in the package to help you increase the visibility of the content, make annotations (requires an external app) or add notes.

There is also an OCR feature that is fitted to CamScanner, but most of the times it yields less accurate results, as it needs crystal clear captures to make sense of the written words. Editing the page's position and cropping the image are basic functions that are also part of the package, just like page rotation.

Make documents easy to find with relevant tags and share them

In case you want to put together a more complex document, you can load several pictures in one go and set relevant tags for that file. Managing these tags is also an option you can find the main menu of the app.

When it comes to saving or sharing the files you create, the possibilities are numerous, as this utility is able to create PDF files on the fly, save the images to a local album, send the documents via email or upload them to OneDrive or OneNote.
