Scanner Pro
Scanner Pro turns paper documents, receipts, IDs, business cards, books and photos into digital files on iOS and macOS. Automatic edge detection and perspective correction help capture pages, which can be saved as single- or multi-page PDFs, reordered, merged and exported as PDF, Word, PowerPoint, JPG or TXT. Built-in OCR makes scans searchable and allows recognized text to be selected and copied. Users can crop, clean, annotate and sign documents, and password-protect PDFs. The iOS Translator tool translates scans or PDFs into more than 20 languages on device. Scans can sync and back up through iCloud, or upload automatically to Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, Box, OneDrive, OneNote, iCloud Drive and WebDAV storage. Sharing includes email, printing, fax and AirDrop. A free plan and seven-day trial are listed. Scanner Pro Plus costs $59.99 a year; separate purchases include Fax Pack 1 at $0.99, paid once and Expense Report at $4.99, paid once.
