Document Scanning & Sharing App


CamScanner - https://www.camscanner.com/ - is an excellent document scanning and sharing app. 

CamScanner allows Educators and/or Learners to instantly scan any type of text or graphic and save or share them with others. 

Using their phone or tablet camera, they can take a photo and CamScanner will automatically enhance the scanned results so users can easily...

  • email,
  • print,
  • fax  or
  • share them in PDF or PNG format.
"Using the integrated OCR feature, CamScanner allows users to scan an image or PDF making all the text captured editable and searchable." 

Users can use text and OCR to quickly find the document that they want. 

They can also invite colleagues, learners, peers and more to view or provide feedback and comments on their scanned docs within a group.

Other features provided by CamScanner include...

  • Smart cropping and auto enhancing make the texts and graphics look clear and sharp.
  • that by entering any keyword, users will see a list of docs with the word in their titles, notes or images.
  • Extracting texts inside single pages for further editing or .txt sharing.
  • sharing docs in PDF or JPEG format with others via social media, email attachment or sending the doc link.
  • instantly printing out docs in CamScanner with nearby printer and/or directly faxing docs to over 30 countries right from the app.
  • making annotations or adding customised watermark on docs are made available for users.
  • setting passcodes for viewing important docs; meanwhile, when sending doc link, users can set a password to protect it.
