So easy to scan old photos quickly and easily! Love this app!
Awesome, gets rid of the reflection from outside lights and sun.
Putting together a movie for funeral, and needed to add old photos. A lot of them. I looked online for best ways to photograph old pictures. I downloaded this app and it is absolutely perfect for what I am doing. It removes the shadows, the glare, crops the image and in some cases improves the quality of the image. Love this!
For scanning photo, documents etc. it does a good job of remiving glare from glass ot lighting and some imperfections by stitching 4 photos that you take. Free, no ads, no upgrade$. Highly recommended.
Thanks to this app I have been able to save my family’s most precious pictures! It has been more than I expected for quality! Thank you!!!
There is no way to get the photos from the app to your phone or computer
I LOVE that it gets rid of glare and phone shadows. Just wish it saved (or gave you a choice) to save as jpeg
For years I have had to warm up my huge scanner when I wanted to scan photos but not anymore! This app is amazing and easily scans all your photos to your phone or tablet. Even with shaky hand!
I don’t know how everyone likes this app so much. Every time I use it with my iPhone 11 Pro Max I follow the prompts going to each corner the it generates a photo with big blotches of glare that’s low resolution. I’ve tried this on about a dozen photos. I guess I just have to resort to taking a regular photo with my iPhone then photoshopping it.
Why is there not a button that just adds it to your photos? Why? You have to go to “copy” but it only works the first time. It makes absolutely no sense and make the app garbage.
