Scanner Mini – Scan PDF & Fax Reviews

by NewZack

I only downloaded this to do a quick down and dirty OCR job on a few files, and it looks like i have to pay to be able to use the OCR feature. Other than that, I suppose it’s clean and simple, seems to function well. It’s very snappy and responsive, I like the layout and what it looks like. Very clean. I was able to crop easily, works excellent and fast. But no OCR unless I pay, so not a great review from me. Seems great otherwise, honestly!

I’ve used ScannerMini for years now, along with a few other nice apps from Readdle. I paid for the “Pro” upgrade (which was advertised as being the same as buying the separate, paid, Scanner Pro app) a long time ago to create and use workflows, which are great. But I am disappointed that there has been no updates since late 2020. Will there be an update for ios15?

ScannerMini is really easy to use and great to scan photos of your handwritten work. However, when I tried to share it to an email, I couldn’t do it without buying the Pro.

With ScannerMini, you will capture and recognize documents and upload them to dropbox or iCloud quickly and seamlessly.
I must say, however, that glare from overhead lights on documents that I am photographing on a tabletop substantially distorts the color of the image, and even obliterates part of the text, which is a serious flaw. Camscanner app did not do this.

I’ve used ScannerMini for the last four years doing my undergrad in Mechanical Engineering and it has been so nice. It easily creates files with mutiple pictures, connects to OneDrive, DropBox, files and more and takes really great quality pictures. I found myself wondering dozens of times how ScannerMini could be so wonderful and so cheap (or is it free?) I can’t remember but if I costs a couple bucks it is completely worth it. Anyone with one of those affordable printers that college students might have knows that integrating the scanner on them with your computer can honestly be such a hassle. I highly recommend ScannerMini.

Great app.. only problem is one day I went in to email a document and everything was switch around as far as being in order by date. Overall I like it.

I'm a student and I use this all the time to scan things from my text books or other hand outs then I send them directly to google drive! Very reliable and accurate.

Got the scanner mini by readdle and upgraded to scanner pro with due payment but my documents disappear when ScannerMini is initiated. Some dicuments come up later while others hang somewhere I don’t know.

I’ve been using ScannerMini for over 4 years and love it. I have tried downloading a couple of other apps but found this one the simplest and easiest to use. My needs are fairly basic- to scan, pdf and email which works great. The detection of the page to scan is great and the output most of the time looks like it’s been done on a flatbed scanner if done under proper lighting conditions. The shadows do affect the scan which is one area I wish can be improved upon.

Best iPhone scanner out there! (And I've tried a bunch!) It's quality is better than my mini-scanner in the office, plus the automatic Dropbox sync makes it far more convenient than any other scanner!

Excellent scanner app.

I have started scanning a book and I'm a hundred pages in. I've also used this to scan a couple smaller documents as I'm trying to go paperless.

The scans come out very professional looking and the text recognition is exceptional.

Scanner Mini has been a great app & a huge help. I work in military contracting & hire & manage HCWs across the US. I recommend Scanner Mini to all new hires when they need to send in paperwork. Beats sending uneven out-of-focus pictures of documents; much more professional!

After spending 6hours with trying to get scan to work with windows and HP I found this and boy what an easy delightfully fast experience. I bought downloaded and used it in less than 10 minutes!!!!!!

Thanks

I am constantly having to send forms to my employees and employer that do not come in my email and ScannerMini makes that so easy and more professional that just a snap shot of the document. Thank you for making my work day more efficient!

As an actor, I can always count on this scanner to let me sign and send contracts for work no matter where I am! So easy to scan and email or messenger casting people as I did today! Timesaver for sure💟🎥💟

Use it to scan all my receipts, pay stubs, & other important documents. So nice to be able to scan a document & email it to whoever needs it in a matter of minutes. I love not having to keep track of piles of paper anymore!

Love the iCloud integration, auto-scanning and the ability to scan more than a few pages at a time. I don’t know the limit but with the paid version I have scanned ~25 pages at once, converted to PDF and then synced to my 3rd party cloud service. Worth the upgrade for a polished and smooth app.

Been using ScannerMini for years and still love it! I'm a Realtor and love that I have a scanner at my finger tips for contracts, floorplans, surveys, disclosures..anything I need scanned to a PDF instantly!! The ease of borders and color vs black and white or grayscale allows me to get the right image every time. Stores as well so I can retrieve them instantly! Love it!

I am extremely impressed by ScannerMini. Given the recent events, I have to do a lot of work from home. ScannerMini allows me to create quality pdf scans of documents without an office quality printer/scanner. It also can have multiple pages for one document. It’s everything I wanted from an app like this.

I got ScannerMini for a class to turn in scratchwork and after buying the full access version I immediately fell in love with ScannerMini . It works amazingly and it comes in handy whenever you need to scan things. The full access version is worth every penny because now I know I’ll never need to worry about scanning documents with a printer ever again. I can scan anything at any time and any place.

by Useabetterscanapp

This is the most ridiculous thing, I have a scan of an old document that I would like to have (ie don't need) but ScannerMini doesn't allow me to share it anywhere with out paying for the pro version. Why even bother have ScannerMini when it has absolutely no usefulness of utility!! Other free apps allow you to share your scan, as this one users to allow, seriously ridiculous!

by Lynzjovero

Very useful for everybody. I always use it for all documents I send out. Comes out clear all the time. It is suppose to be automatically take pictures, but sometimes the auto doesn't work It takes a long time

I have not used my old fashion fax machine for anything under 10 pages in two years.
ScannerMini is quick - perfect resolution and I have a copy on my phone to always refer to a previous “fax”.
ScannerMini is my traveling fax machine.

This has been the best scanner app I have found. I would highly recommend downloading it. I am able to quickly scan, copy and email documents with ease!
