## Reviews

### "Great for being on the go\!" — 5.0/5

> **Renz** | *November 8, 2024* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Just love the idea of not having to run to a scanner/printer to get the job done. The ease of having an app on your phone to have it look very identical to an actual scanned copy is great.
> 
> **Cons**: If I HAD to choose, it would be the excessive ads. But that doesn't bother me as much at all.

### "Convenient Scanner For Your Phone. Fewer Premium Features Would Be Nice." — 4.0/5

> **Jesse** | *August 13, 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is easy to scan documents with your phone and send them to yourself via email or storing them in Google Drive. Additionally, CamScanner does a great job detecting what parts on the scan are documents and what is not.
> 
> **Cons**: Scanning as a pdf with text that is highlightable is part of a premium subscription. This should be a basic feature available for all users.
> 
> Overall, CamScanner is an easy app to use if you have documents you would like to store electronically. They are some features that are premium features that I believe could be offered to basic users, but overall, I would recommend this app to anyone needing to scan documents in.

-----

### "Quick, Clean, and Reliable Mobile Scanning" — 5.0/5

> **Lovely** | *June 4, 2026* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It quickly turns paper documents into clear, high-quality PDFs using just a phone camera, and its automatic edge-cropping and text enhancement work perfectly.
> 
> **Cons**: The free version has too many intrusive ads and places a visible watermark on exported documents unless you pay for a premium subscription.
> 
> My overall experience with CamScanner is highly positive. It is a reliable, fast, and incredibly convenient tool for turning paper documents into clean digital files on the go.

-----

### "essential app for everyday life" — 3.0/5

> **Carlos** | *January 13, 2025* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: In addition to scanning with your cell phone camera, it also converts PDF files to Word
> 
> **Cons**: Sometimes, when I print the PDF, it doesn't come out in one piece.
> 
> It was a good experience, I managed to solve what I needed

-----

### "Much easierr to use than a physical copier/scanner\!" — 5.0/5

> **Lydia** | *March 27, 2025* | Research | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is much easier to use than a physical copier/scanner, especially for oddly sized things like receipts for expense reimbursement, etc. I have never had issues with a document being unreadable or oriented wrong, like I have with traditional copy/scan machines. I also appreciate the options for sharing documents; notably, I can email scanned documents directly to a recipient within the app. Best of all, it is free for basic use (with some paid features).
> 
> **Cons**: The only feature I would like to see would be the ability to "batch" scan items, but have them saved separately instead of within the same document.
> 
> Overall, CamScanner is very easy to use and has been extremely useful to me.
