Review summary

Reviews praise the app for ease of use, speed, and strong PDF scanning/editing capabilities, with many calling it excellent. A major drawback mentioned across reviews is the paid subscription model, with features locked behind a paywall and limited or no free usage. Overall, users view it as a high-quality tool, especially for handling hard copies, but the paywall is a recurring frustration.

Pros

Easy to use
Fast
Excellent / great quality
Great for PDF scanning and editing
Handy for processing hard copies (scanning physical documents)

Cons

Subscription required to access editing features (paywall after first use)
Free usage is limited or not available without subscription
