Contact Photo Scanner Plus Support

by Jataviel

I have close to 500 old photos that I've been meaning to scan and put in a photo album for my mom for this Christmas. My husband suggested I try one of those apps that will scan and enhance my photos so I stumbled upon this app, I even bought it because the video looked so awesome. On my phone the picture scanning deal became a breeze and I was amazed how great they look after automatically been fixed. It wasn't until upload the images to a photo book creating website and started creating the album when I noticed all the photos are very grainy and blurry. I work with photoshop and realized that this apps corrects the scanned photos by aggressively sharpening the image which resulted in grainy and in some cases pixelated images. They do not look good at all, in the real photos you can see detail, in the scanned version you lose detail and get that awkward grainy/blurry look. I guess that's what happens when I tried a shortcut. Thai app is only good if you want to save your old photos to upload to social media or your computer. Print quality is very low.

Thapp is a great timer saver and I think I will use it a lot. I have a lot of printed photos that I need to digitize. A lot of them are in books. The plastic pages cause glare, so you really have to take them out of pockets or open the cover. In the old books once you open the plastic many of them will not restick.

Most irritating thing to me is the picture you scan does not show after you scan it. So, to know if you scan is good you have to close scanning and go to the top of the pictures to see it.

There several other things that need improvement but I can’t think of them right now, oh yeah, even when you get them out from behind plastic it is still difficult to place the oictures so they don’t pick up glare.

Once I figured out a way to take photos without glare, I found this app makes excellent scans of my photos. I got a frosted plastic storage box and cut a small hole in the bottom to take the scan through. I covered the bottom of the box with black tape and cut out the hole in that as well. Then I turned over the box and scanned my photos through the hole. The black tape makes no reflection, and the clear sides of the box let in light to get a good scan. I’m glad I found this app and would gladly give it five stars except for the incessant pop ups asking me to subscribe. I would gladly pay a one time fee for the app considering the limited use I need it for, but I don’t want a monthly or yearly subscription. The developer deserves to make money, but with that as the only option, I couldn’t pay them. My punishment is lots of annoying pop ups.
