FAQs
To ask plainly, how do I use the app?
Basically, using the app is a straight forward process. When you launch the app, the path through the app is well driven by the options that appear. At the bottom of the screen you can see the important menu bar where you can toggle between your folders and files (left option), the scanner camera and the library picker (center) as well as the Info page (right option).
On the folders page you can see all your created folders that contain your scanned files. By tapping on one, you open the folder and view all your file scans inside it. Pretty simple. The main context menu is always located at the top right side of the screen. In the folders page it is the create new folder option. By scrolling the folder from right to left, you get the options of renaming and deleting the folder. Too easy.
Once you scan a document through the camera or select an existing image from your library, you can use the cropping facility to select the parts of the text that you want scanned. Or you just leave it as is. Which naturaly leads to the "V-scan it" function. Just hit that big green button. Voila, your image text, will appear. Our powerfull ML driven OCR will do all the scanning magic for you.
At this stage, you are free to read as well as edit the text to your own liking. Works like a simple text editor. You can copy the text or part of it and paste it anywhere else in the iphone, or even better, give it a file name just above the text and press the Save button at the top right to follow the simple save process which will generate a file in your folder. It prompts you even to create a new folder if you don't have one yet. The file is there ready to be uploaded or shared.
Which brings us to the files list. You see all your scans you saved in that folder. You want to open your file, just press and hold and it opens. It shows you a preview of the image you used as well as the scanned text. You want to edit the text a bit more or even rename the file to something else, press the Edit button at top right. Save again. Back in the files list, press the three dots at top right and it gives you options on your files.
Select All, deselect all. Select only a few or all of them, then press again the top right and you get the option of merging them. That will give you the fully merged text in one file. You can merge two, three, as many as you like. Very good of getting multiple pages of a favourite book or homework in one file, hey? :-)
Select any file and press the top right. You see the option Share? Just press it and ... magic. You can see your contacts that you can share this file with, as well as option of uploading to iCloud or Google Drive, or even emailing it or sending it through Skype or Whatsapp. That will generate a fully editable Word document, which will be attached to your chosen destination. View your files everywhere. All editable for your own convenience.
Have a blast, enjoy and send us a thumbs up and some solid reviews. Enjoy V-scanning.
