PhotoScan by Google Photos for Positive User Reviews
✓ SurpriseSurprised at the ease of use and the quality. Not 100% perfect but close. Using it on my mini ipad. Beats cranking up the dedktop scanner!!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ 👍🏼El mejor scaner de fotosSin duda es una app muy eficiente!.Version: 1.6
✓ Great for making a quick backup of the blunder yearsMy granny is in her nineties and is basically the family archivist. This app is great for when the family gatherings when the blunder years photos come out (and other fondly treasured snaps). The stitched and de-glared photos seem compressed, which makes the results slightly mushy no matter how steady I try to make my hands. Not a perfect replacement for a place with a proper photoscanner perhaps, but as is often the case with the photos I’m duping: “the best camera is the one you have on you at the time”.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Just the jobMakes life a lot easier instead of messing around trying to hold the camera still.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy and convenientScanned multiple pictures in a very short period..Version: 1.7
✓ PhotosFantastic ! ✔️.Version: 1.6
✓ Great to capture last century family memoriesHave photos in old cellophane photo albums? This will sort you out!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Awesome app! Needs photo date options!Just downloaded this app a few minutes ago. So far, it’s great! It crops and removes the glare for you all at once! It also automatically uploads to your Gmail photos account (after signing in). It’s amazing. So far it has cropped all my photos perfectly except for one where it cropped it more to the left than I would like. I gave it four stars because I would like the option to change the date of multiple photos at once (I actually don’t see the option to change the date at all)..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Really works!I’m scanning photos without having to remove them from the album. The feature which removes reflections works really well and I use the edge correction to trim the photos. Definitely worth a try..Version: 1.7
✓ Works very wellAll those photo albums from the 90’s now in a folder on my desktop in the same quality. Well done 😁.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great app, needs some fixingThis app is really great and convenient for me as a person who takes a bunch of film and scans them. It scans and transfers the photos well on to digital. My one and only issue though is that it lags terribly, but only when you have a bunch of photos already scanned. So I have to rotate and scan, download, and delete so the process can go more smoothly. Again genius app just needs some bug fixes for it to run better with storage..Version: 1.6
✓ Awesome app - works wellThis app works exceptionally well and would rate it at 4.5 stars if I could. The app scans glossy photos perfectly - removing all glare without fault. However, it doesn’t perform so well with photos printed on matt photo paper. Turning glare removal off does help providing there is ample ambient light..Version: 1.4.1
✓ FantastiqueApplication fantastique qui permet de scanner rapidement des photos avec de très beaux résultats.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Scanning photos made easy!I love this app ❤️ I’ve scanned photos that are over 40 years old and this app makes them look better than the originals! Be sensible though people - if you have a photo that’s blurry it will still scan blurry. At least in my experience..Version: 1.6
✓ Good for small to mid sized collectionsI am impressed with this app and its ability to manipulate and scan in physical photos. I have had issues dealing with large collections as the app starting crashing and had trouble pushing through recropped photos to the iPhoto library when I was in the 1000s of photos. If there was a way to archive old photos or delete them from the app without deleting them in the iPhoto library that would be great so the app is less bogged down..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Awesome.Works as advertised. Really like that it makes you take 5 photos to make capturing easy without too much lining up and worrying about lighting..Version: 1.2
✓ Doesn’t export properlyUPDATE: Looks like I jumped the gun a little bit. The app did transfer all photos (original and cropped) via thunderbolt cable! However, it still needs option to export multiple photos directly from within the app. The initial portion of the app - photo-scanning images is very good. I also like the ability to crop the images. For that, Id rate 5 stars. But it completely falls flat for what I would say is the most important part - exporting the images. After scanning and cropping, the photos are saved to the camera roll (as cropped), but when they’re imported to a desktop via thunderbolt cable, the photos are not cropped. That’s completely useless. There is, however, an option to extort photos directly from the app, but only one at a time!?? The app allows selecting multiple photos but then the only option is to delete. That’s a huge usability error. So the only way I can export over 500 finalized cropped photos is to export the one at a time via AirDrop. Like I said, great on the front end but complete fail on the backend. Developers, please add option to; A) bulk export from the app, and B) Export finalized photos from the camera roll..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to use with great resultsAlthough it doesn’t really have much for instructions, it doesn’t really need them. It is simple and it works well. Images automatically save to your photo library. Quick and painlessly.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Does the basic job.This app does the basic function of removing parallax from a flat image and it often removes the glare. I use it primarily to scan magazine covers and important documents. A significant problem has been encountered when trying to position crosshairs, as they often move as I remove my finger from the screen. This occurs when the view changes to the overview, so the error is not detected until the image is magnified again. A second problem occurs in the management of the saved images. I do not use Google photos to store the images and so local storage is the Apple photos camera roll. When I modify an image, the app requires that I replace the existing image if I want to keep it. It would be helpful to allow replacing or adding to the camera roll or just storing locally in the App. It would also be helpful to dump local storage directly to an album and then clear the storage without losing the images from the photos app..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Very useful!Great app to save history through photos.Version: 1.5
✓ Excellent !Ever so easy and fast ! Will definitely recommend ! As a visual art student, having to send digital version of drawings and sketches can be so difficult especially when working in any format bigger than a4. This app just made me save so much time and energy it is simply brilliant !.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Yep simple & easy covers itYep simple & easy covers it.Version: 1.4.1

✓ The BestSuch a great app. So quick and easy to scan all our old photos and then can edit easily if required. Can’t rate this app highly enough..Version: 1.7
✓ Surprising Photo QualityBefore downloading this app I was skeptical of what it could do and how well it could execute it. Quickly, after using it I got the hang of it and had scans of Polaroid pictures I had taken to share with my friends. The quality of the scans is something to be excited about because if done right the quality like for the Polaroids that I scanned could be better than the original picture itself. Job well done Google. :).Version: 1.4.1
✓ Best scannerThe easiest, best quality scanner I’ve tried and totally free!! Amazing!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Simple and works greatI was looking for a way to digitise my old family photos without getting super technical and this fits the bill perfectly. I’m impressed..Version: 1.5.1
✓ AnazingDoes exactly what it says it does… well!.Version: 1.6
✓ PhotoScan SimplicityLove this App. I have been scanning all of our family pictures via a Flatbed scanner which takes for ever. Downloaded the App and couldn’t believe how much time it has saved Brilliant.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Works!!I’ve tried many of these and all of them charged a ridiculous subscription fee! This app does exactly what I need. I am able to scan in all my old photos and the app saves them to my Photos app and adjusts the photo for glare! Works great!.Version: 1.7
✓ Look like plastic surgeryDoes a good job, although sometimes there is so much smoothing happening that people can look like they've had plastic surgery! Great at removing glare spots when you take a photo of a photo. Early days for this tech, so will only get better. At the end of the day, at least you have a digital backup of old printed family photos..Version: 1.4.1
✓ THE GREATEST APP YOU WILL DOWNLOADIf your all about film photos, or going through old photo albums and wanting to save those memories to your phone. This app will be your best friend. The quality is insane, and saves so much time from using a scanner..Version: 1.7
✓ Quite brilliantIf you want something quick and don't have access to a scanner, this app is absolutely amazing. Such clever tech. There is a loss of quality, but it's taking a photo of a photo so what can you expect. It doesn't replace a scanner, but it does a great job for an app.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Awesome app for preserving memories!This app is awesome! A great way to quickly scan photos and save them to your phone. Only problem I've run into is that the same great technology that allows you to edit corners and cropping and save it across the app and the rest of your albums is that if you try to remove them from the app it will delete them everywhere. This is causing me problems since the app has a lot of data in it and is therefore crashing a lot. Other than that it's awesome. Definitely recommend..Version: 1.5.1
✓ New App for usWe have just started the long task of scanning 41 years of our photos and this App is making short work of a huge chore. Great. Thank you.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Simply awesome!Just started using this to scan old photos for my daughter's wedding slideshow. I can't believe how effective the glare reduction is! Don't need to remove the photos from the album, and the results are better than what I could get from my old flatbed scanner. So vibrant colors. No editing required!.Version: 1.6
✓ WoWMerci c’est vraiment hot comme application 🤩.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great appAwesome to capture old photographs and super easy to use..Version: 1.2
✓ Simply brilliantThe best and by the most superior photo app I've download. Easy to use does exactly what it says on the tin. And then uploads to google photos. This is making copying my photos from over the years very easy and then just share them albums. My daughter lives in Sydney so this is ideal for her rather than transporting 1000s of photos around the globe..Version: 1.4.1
✓ I would give it 10 Stars if I could!!!This app is straight up AWESOME. There are other good scanner apps out there, but this is by far the best photo scanner app I have ever used. In fact, it might even be better than actual photo scanner machines. The quality of scans is great. I scanned several old family photos and they came out clear and accurate. It has to take a picture in the dead center of the picture, then it primos you to move to the four corners of the picture. It similar to when you take panoramic photos with your phone. By taking pictures of the center and each corner, it allows the software of the app to automatically get out any glare, but also maintain the integrity of the photo. Once you're finished with a batch you can save the photos to your Google Photos app. I highly recommend it to anyone, but especially those who have been wanting to scan old photos, but have been afraid of the amount of time it would take as well as the money to spend on a photo scanner. Here is your answer..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Someone should tell the world!It’s even quicker than my printers scanner. The only thing that could make it better (probably already available but I’m a partial techtard) is if it first auto adjusted the corners and allowed me to re adjust if needed. Right now I’m adjusting manually and the suggested corners are perfect. Just wish I didn’t have to do it manually..Version: 1.5.1
✓ So easy to useStarted off using the camera to preserve old photos. It worked but thought there must be a better way and this is it. Easy to use, takes out glare and you end up with a result better than the original..Version: 1.5.1
✓ So intuitive...It doesn't even need instructions and fixes problems automatically. Perfect for digitising your old photos. This app is next level..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Photo ScanGreat program easy to use once you figure out the movement required around your photo to get the result it is capable of. Great way to digitize your old photos..Version: 1.5.1
✓ So easy to useI was very impressed with this app. Easy to use and the quality of the scan was very good. I’ve managed to make a photo book of all my old photos. Thank you so much ..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great Tool for sentimental momsAs a mom with 3 kids, 2 of them being prolific picture creators, you might imagine how much paper clutter that we have, especially wanting to keep so many of their masterpieces! This app means that you can keep it all, without burying yourself and your loved ones in paper! This way, I have a copy of their work, while only keeping a physical copy of the really important pieces. I use it for photos too, and even documents, and it is WONDERFUL! Thank you, thank you for this app!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Fantastic AppI have been able to scan two photo albums of very old black and white photos without removing one from the album. The process is very simple and accurate. Each photo scanned resulted in sharp, clear copies saved to my iPad that can be shared with family. I highly recommend this app..Version: 1.5.1
✓ FantasticSuch a great way to save old photos. Easy to use, good editing options. A brilliant app.Version: 1.2
✓ Great toolJust found this as needed to scan images for a funeral. Thanks. Making life easier.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Super app and simpleJust digitised our wedding album using this and my iPad Pro. It was very easy and very quick. The app takes care of everything, even straightens the photo. Also it rotates the photo to the correct orientation. Definitely recommended if you have gots of old photos lying around in boxes or stuck in albums..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Simple and quickSimple to use and does a great job. You do need to invest a few moments to understand how to save your photos. I'm happily scanning old family photos without having to take them out of the albums..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Easy to useDownloaded this app to digitalise photos from the past. The app is easy to use and it syncs to my Google Photos. 👍🏻.Version: 1.6
✓ No more hours over the scanner!There are about 1 million photo apps. And most of them work fine. This one works amazingly well. And just a few seconds you can quickly reproduce almost any old photo so that it looks beautiful in the digital universe. I sorted all my family photos, set on the kitchen floor, and and just a few minutes digitized everything I needed for a special family event. It comes in super handy whenever you want to send a photo to a friend. Also, does great with text based printed items as well. I’ve use this app since 2017, and it has never disappointed me once..Version: 1.5.1
✓ LOVEThis app is simply amazing. The amount of time I have tried taking photos of photos whilst trying to shield light/ glare/ shadows - this app has just removed those problems..Version: 1.4.1
✓ PhotoScanC’est super! Merci beaucoup..Version: 1.6
✓ Great Google AppThis is a wonderful free App from Google to scan single page documents for personal use. Very easy to use and the quality of scan is superb. Sharing with email and saving the scan to Google drive is fairly easy once you get the hang of it. It is extremely useful during the tax time. I have used other scan apps in past but find this particular App the best. Highly recommend..Version: 1.6
✓ Awesome appGreat app for scanning photos.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Best free scanner there isI’ve taken old photographs, birth certificates, and other important documents, and digitized them using this scanner. I had played around with so many others, but the fact that whatever you’re trying to scam in is photographed 5 times ensures highest quality of the images/content, so that others may enjoy the clarity and details. If you need to digitize anything really, start with this app first so that you can compare the ease of use to others..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Works wellEasy to use and scans well Just the 4 dots can be hard to line up.Version: 1.2
✓ Magic!This scan app. once you have used it a couple of times is magic. I had a pile of old photos in a variety of conditions. With this scanner I have been able to bring them back to ‘life’. I would happily recommend it to others to try..Version: 1.5.1
✓ App crashes and phone heats up when scanning multiple photosOverall I like the app and it does what it's stopped to. I like how the photos automatically upload to Google photos. I encountered lagging, lots of crashing, and my phone heating up when I was trying to scan a whole photo album worth of photos (around 50). I had to take a break and let my phone cool down and then continue after 30 min or so. This process happened continuously. If you're planning on scanning a few photos at a time, this app is excellent!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Excellent time saver and easy way to look professional!This app is great! Does what it says, stores files in with other photos where they can be edited(usually only to rotate) then be sent off to where they need to be in your choice of format. Takes roughly 2 seconds to capture, then your off doing whatever else you got going. No complaints, I use no other apps for capturing documents. This app works flawlessly and makes life so much easier! Definitely download! And tell your boss! Who knows, saving his time could lead to another way to make life easier/better!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ ScannerIt’s great and portable !.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing qualityThis app is amazing at taking scans of old photos, so easy to make copies of grandmas albums for all the family members!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Fabulous: Finally found a way to safeguard all my memoriesNo cost involved, only time to ‘scan’ each photo. It would be great if it gave the option to name the photo for easy retrieval, but I am happy to be able to digitalise all the photos!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to use & works!An easy way to get your printed photos in digital version (& on your device). Borrowed my partners photo albums and made him a 30th Birthday photo board. Too easy!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ LOVE IT!The only thing I wish it would do is allow notations or captions that would “live” with the image- maybe on the small white frame that has the Google branding that gets added to the scan. The other thing is I wish it would connect to my Google Photos account so I could back up quickly. Otherwise, amazing app. Great quality scans. I plan on getting some fresh prints of some old pictures for some wall collages. The rest I’m just digitizing to save the family history for future generations..Version: 1.5.1
✓ EmotionalFound all these photos, clearing out my mum’s. Being able to transfer them “accurately” to digital is absolutely incredible. They have been restored & sent far and wide. This is now my #1 App! Thank you!.Version: 1.7
✓ This app has brought a lot of happiness to my family around the worldMy parents passed away recently and I’ve been using this app to record photos dating back to 1950s and sending them to family around the world. Great app, easy to use and very good picture quality. Love the fact that you can also edit the photos. Thanks Google!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great app to save all memoriesGreat app to save all memories.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Outstanding AppI have used photomyme and other photo scanning apps to scan old photos however no other app has come close to this one for clarity and the ability to remove glare. Great features like magnifying corner adjustment to make it easier when needed are also very helpful. Awesome work Google!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Very effective scanner for photos, though gradients aren’t handled wellRecently used this app to scan old photos from a client’s autobiography and the results turned out really well. However, sometimes with uneven lighting the photos will appear darker in certain areas and can mess up what the app detects as glare. Then again, gradients aren’t the easiest things to detect. Definitely useful and easiest thing to detect. Definitely faster than using an actual scanner..Version: 1.5.1
✓ BrilliantEasy to use, produces great results. Thanks Google!.Version: 1.2
✓ Love this but I want to name the picturesThis is a great product and so easy to use. The pictures are like I scanned them. One thing I would like is to be able to add some text to the pictures..Version: 1.6
✓ Finally I am getting my photos digitisedThis App is awesome! It does a great job..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Love this app!!It's helped bring my photos in my albums to life and allowed me to share them without all the glare you'd normally get from trying to take a photo of a photo!! Big thanks to you & to my hubby showing me the app!! Love it!! 🙏🏽.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Simplicité, efficacité et qualité.Enfin la possibilité de photographier ou scanner peintures, photos ou documents rapidement..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Good free scanner for old photo albumsEasy to use and generally works well. Some problems with flame, even using glare reduction. And difficult to edit in apple photos as the original pic with the background comes back. But it’s free. So not perfect!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ ScannerVery quick scanning tool. Kept colours true to original photos. Much better than my desktop scanner..Version: 1.7
✓ What a wonderful surpriseI love this app, so simple and easy to use.Version: 1.5.1
✓ I love GooglePhotoScan is a great app accompanied with Google photos.Version: 1.4.1
✓ ExcellentUse this regularly to scan receipts and other documents when not near my scanner. Works very well. Highly recommended.Version: 1.7
✓ Works well but…It scans better than my new 600dpi flatbed scanner but there’s no batch export options and no simple option to save to photos.Version: 1.6
✓ A big helpJust taking pictures of my dad n me, that is so much better than removing them ; wrecking the print in the process.Version: 1.6
✓ Great photo Scan appI looked for a scanner that would scan photos from old albums or portraits that can’t be removed from the album or frame without wrecking the image. I tried 4 apps, and this was the only one that allows you to have a less-than-steady hand and get a good image. It also allows you to scan a page full of photos at once, as long as there are images close to the corners of the page, which is a great option..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Save your precious memoriesA great (not perfect) way to save your old family film memories to the cloud with Google Photos and share them forever! I’ll use this for receipts and documents too 😉.Version: 1.5.1
✓ What an incredible and useful appLoved this so much and perfect for scanning photos. I always spend so long trying to not get glare and the image in focus but this app really helps to scan them more efficiently..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Without words…How do I say this. Forgive the length of this but this is the first time I’ve addressed it. Daddy passed years ago, independent mother started having falls, less social and COVID. Mother moves in with family, I inherit family videos and photos. Being the baby, many were before my time. I had the old 8mm reel video tapes transferred to thumb drives and copies given to siblings. Kinda pricey but worth it. Now the family pictures. Boxes and boxes of them. Even to have them scanned professionally, tons of time is required to filter through, identify, and be selective in the ones to duplicate. Do it myself with a flatbed scanner seemed daunting. Found this free app and thought if it wasn’t sufficient then I’d find a paid app to get the job done. Looks promising so that was my game plan. Fast forward 6 months. My house burns down. Fire and water damage. All photos damaged but some salvagable. I haven’t printed anything yet but this app is so easy to use and what is appearing on screen is such good quality. I’m thrilled. Thank you to the minds who created this ❤️.Version: 1.6
✓ Less than perfectWhile the app scans photos, the instructions are confusing and it took me some time to work out that I had to physically move the phone to get the dot in the target, not try to drag it with my finger..Version: 1.4.1
✓ IncredibleThis app is completely amazing even get old photos and get them into Google photos taken keep them for ever and share them with your family and friends.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Clever AppJust discovered this and started using it... it seems ideal for quickly uploading all the old pictures without having to take them out of an album to put in a conventional scanner..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Amazing!I’ve worked on scanning in all my old photos using a computer and printer/scanner... torture! This app is amazing! Quick and easy to use! And I already have my phone set up to back my photos up to google photos, so I have my computer beside me and can scan in a “roll” of photos and then easily select all taken in one month and shift the dates. Thank you Jesus for all those years I had photos developed with the dates printed on back or front!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ PhotoScan works for meScanning a lot of old photo albums and this app works well. Don’t need to disturb the photos and it allows quick cropping of the pictures. If more editing is needed, then you need to follow up with Photoshop or similar..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Loving this app!I have been tediously scanning old photos on a flatbed scanner, thought I would give this a try and I love it! Saves photos to my iPhone camera role but also to my google photos. I shared a whole album from 1985 via google photos with an old friends 👍scan copy is excellent ⭐️.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great except when it’s notThis is a great app for capturing old images in digital format. The only downside is that it can be clunky and not complete the process, or it requires you to chase it down across the table away from the picture. And it faults with a message that could be more friendly to the user other than a terse message to hold the picture in the viewing area... which of course I’ve been doing. This last point is the reason it’s not 5 stars. Obviously the marketing department has not been too involved with the launch of this product..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Old photosExcellent job digitizing old photos so I can make a photo book for mom of her younger days !!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Thank you Google againOnce again they made an excellent app. So simple to use. Not asking for money or hidden subscriptions. I have recommended this app to so many of my friends and family. I think this is an essential app.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing free appThis is exactly what I was looking for to get all of my old photos into the cloud. And even better it’s free (compared to some alternatives which cost... a lot). It’s absolutely great and would recommend the app, take a-bit of time but for me it’s worth it!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ QualityMy scanned photos are of amazing quality thanks to this app. Love how my scanned photos instantly save to my google photos. Too easy..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to useSimple and easy.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Perfect Scans - and MORE!I was told by my brother to try the scanner from google and was a little sceptical at first. But I used it and was very happy with the results on photos and documents. I found it easy to use and that I got great quality images from it. I have now found another use for the app. I own an art gallery and even with amazing big cameras, some artwork is very hard to capture a good image of a painting. But I had a light bulb moment when I decided to try and take scans of some artworks and they turned out so well!! It works like a camera, but stitching the four images together works so well. Red paint is particularly hard to capture properly. Scanning it works beautifully!! I wish I could show the pics! Thanks google 👍.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Best app!!!! Perfect. Love itIt doesn’t charge you money to scan the photos! And it has an amazing techniques of scanning. very clear Love it.Version: 1.5.1
✓ So quick, so easyFast, easy and free. Acceptable file size..Version: 1.7
✓ Best App for Scanning photos hands downI LOVE THIS APP! I don’t normally write reviews but this was an opportunity I made time for. I’m a designer and often Make obituaries and memorial videos. I was able to scan in 55 photos in less than 30 minutes. The best part was not having to edit or crop the photos. Every image was client ready and most were auto rotated as well. I will be recommending this app to clients and friends. Thanks Google for making my job easier..Version: 1.5
✓ Easy to use - high qualityI have tried a few photo scan apps all with varying results but nothing noteworthy and also asking for a lot of money in monthly subscriptions. This is by far the best! Go Google!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Awesome appThis is such an awesome app! Highly recommend.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing and fantasticThis is the only app that you can take photos on your cell phone of photo albums without needing to remove the pictures. Removing pictures from albums can be destructive to the pictures. This app removes the glare by moving the camera around the picture. It only takes about 5 seconds a picture. Best of all, it directly uploads into Apple Photos. Other apps require you to use there organizer and their cloud. One wish that it had an easy way to annotate the picture as you take them..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great way to save you old photo’sEasy to use and photos are saved to Google Photos. Yes you may have to pay a £ or so month to save them onto the cloud but this is a small price to pay..Version: 1.7
✓ Great when it’s not crashingThis is a great app for quickly scanning old photos into a digital format. It would definitely be much quicker than individually scanning photos on a proper scanner. My only gripe is that it often crashes regularly after working perfectly fine. I have an XS Max and all my software and apps are up to date. Please sort the bugs google!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Simple, greatVery easy to use with good results.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Brilliant!No other word for it..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Excellent photo scan appSimple to use and the scanned photos are very close to the original..Version: 1.7
✓ Significantly Better than beforeIn the early versions of this app, it demanded to take a picture of the corners and would produce a bulging glare effect which was horrible. Upon re-downloading the app and trying it again, the results were fantastic and much simpler! It is certainly easier to use a white surface when taking photos to produce cleaner results..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Makes copying old photos extremely easyHighly recommend. Easy to use, quick..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Spectacular appExcellent quality scans, don’t need to remove pics from album, quicker than a desktop scanner - amazing !!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Must haveBest app to save photo archive..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great photo scanning appIt handles both gray and color photos just fine. Instructions are easy - you will be scanning in no time. It handles pictures in frames or behind the glass - its anti glare feature is awesome. I wish they had a bit better border detection as I often find myself tweaking borders for older pictures. The UI for border detection could be better likewise / provide better controls as pictures could get small while it gets harder to catch the border at such scale (with my imperfect eyesight). Still, I like the app a lot. Taking pictures in batches works faster. When scanning albums, just keep going - you can adjust borders for your batch later before saving them all in one go. This speeds things up significantly rather than taking a picture/adjusting its borders/saving one at a time..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Works greatI shake all the time, so taking scans can be a challenge... because of the multi position scanning I always get a great result!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great appAmazingly easy to use and effective Thumbs Up.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Easy and good qualityDoes a fantastic job of getting old photos digital. Quick and easy.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Vas très bien!C’est parfait.Version: 1.5.1
✓ BEST Photo App I’ve UsedThis app is exceedingly accurate & helps me take pics of framed art (eliminates glare), images in books, photo IDs & business cards, docs and those stupid receipts that have disappearing ink(!)... As an art historian, it was difficult for me to take a good shot because I have a hand tremor until I discovered PhotoScan in its infancy. I use this app daily, have recommended it to tons of people and cannot exaggerate how awesome this photo app is. Plus, this is a Google product - a plus in my opinion!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Handy app for scanning pictures and receipts!Came across this and I was surprised at the good work it does. Most of the times it provides a good quality scan (enough for simple scanning, obviously wont match a scanner), but handy especially for scanning receipts. It does a very good job with stitching the images and also dealing with the glare (when paper is glossy). Sometimes it may distort the image a bit, but I haven’t found it major. I just rescan again when I’m not satisfied with stitches product. Again, it depends on the purpose of the scan. Overall great rounder..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Dig out those old prints!A hassle free way to quickly archive those old family photos - black and white or colour. The app even improves on your efforts. You can album them in google of course but if you are using an iPhone then they will appear in your iCloud albums as well. Brilliant!.Version: 1.5
✓ So easy to use and turns scanning photos into an easy jobI have just scanned about 100 photos in no time at all. It was easy and something that I have been putting off for years. Terrific app..Version: 1.5
✓ Brilliant. Now able to save all old photosHave tried several times with scanner to digitise all our old photos. Gave up every time as just too much effort. Have just completed first album of 109 photos in about 45 minutes. Scanned in good quality in plastic pockets. Wish I had found it sooner!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Digitize your developped photos free!I love everyone of my scanned old photos. It even enhances them if you choose to. Very easy to use. Anyone can do it. Good preview of how to scan the correct way for best results. Plus photos are automatically stored in the Google Photos app. Thank you Google team!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to useDownloaded this as my flatbed scanner was not scanning true colour. App is easy to use although the additional exposure points (white spots) are often way off the photo edge. Remember to disable phone flash to avoid glare.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great resultEasy to use and great result. Used it photograph wife's paintings which were very glossy..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great app, but where are my photouScan document is great, but I still have to find where my photos have gone so I can edit them. Any idea to where I can find them. Thanks.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Good app to digitalise old photosWhile the application is good at what it does, allowing you to digitalise old photos. I think it is missing one key feature that could really enhance the experience, that is the ability to add notes. Some of my old photo have notes on the back of them identifying the person/place the photo was taken. It would be useful to allow you flip the digital photo so you could add your own notes..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Best app everThis is fantastic, I am able to save all mine and my family’s photos. Truly the best app I’ve come across.Version: 1.6
✓ Great for making digital copies of my scrapbook pagesI made several scrapbooks of my family photos before digital photos were around. But now I wanted to preserve them digitally but they are too big for my flatbed scanner. This app is great for taking digital copies of these large pages so I can view them on my iPad. Sometimes I can even scan the scrapbook pages right from their plastic overlays without any glare. The app even takes pictures of the pages and crops them automatically so just the pages are the photos, without me having to crop out any unnecessary surroundings. Great app!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Awesome, love it!This app is super simple to use. It pretty much does it all for you. You know those pictures you get that have stuff you didn't want around the edges? You can easily make that stuff go away on your scanned photo. My mom still uses a camera with film and is always giving me pictures I want to keep but have no room for, I love this app! They can now all go into Google Photos and it's "one stop shopping!" All in one place, nice, neat uncluttered and supremely space saving. Love it!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Fantastic appWorks superbly, you get a walk through of how to use it when you open the app first. And fantastic quality of Photo after you’ve taken the photo!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ The best app to scan photosI tried many ways to scan and store my childhood photos. This does in the smartest and easiest way. The quality is a lot better than a regular scanner..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Fantastic!Fantastic program! Scans great, and puts straight into digital! Have scanned so many old photos!!!.Version: 1.6
✓ Does a good job some lag issuesScans great just has some slow response and lags.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Rescuing old photosGreat app especially for updating old, as in really old hard copies of photographs to mobile and computer..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to use and great resultsGreat that we can scan all our family pictures and share. Great results, better than the original in a lot of cases. I wish someone would incorporate a version of the focusing algorithm. I have a few really old pics that are slightly blurred and would be great to see them as they should have been. However, that does not detract from the quality of this app! Thanks Google..Version: 1.6
✓ Easy!Super easy to scan photos.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Life Changing!PhotoScan will change your life. It’s wonderful. What better time than the pandemic to dig out those old prints and digitize them? You will find yourself transported into happier times as you look at all those baby and vacation photos! Once they are in Google Photos , splurge on some photo books. I use Mixbook. You will get so much pleasure from “looking back” when it’s kind of scary being in the present or the future! Love PhotoScan. Thank you to whoever invented it. It is getting me through this COVID crisis!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ EAsy to useLove it. It is really easy to use once you understand how it works. It does use up the battery quite quickly so you need to work in batches and best done in natural light..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Been greatSo so far this has been a great app I’ve taken pictures of old photos and the pictures have come out looking better than the originals, it’s also helped with my documents for school that have been paperwork that need to be posted. They come out . Idk if how well this typing is going though as I am unable to see it as I type, but this has been a great app for pics.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to use & GREAT results!I am delighted with this App. I have soo many photos from my childhood, boxes of them. This has been a wonderful way to scan and store them online. I compiled a memorial video of my Brother just recently 😔😢 and I was easily able to scan all the photos and edit them. It all came together perfectly with minimal effort. A truely excellent app and I recommend it to everyone. 🥲.Version: 1.6
✓ Easy to useThe app is super easy to use however my only problem is when I’m not using the flash the scanned photo will look like it has too much saturation. Otherwise, the app is super good..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Quick and easy!This app is the best. It is way faster than my flatbed scanner and very good quality. I use it both in my phone and iPad. Love that you can adjust the corner easily. Also it is very good at guessing the corners. My mom wrote on the edges a lot so I adjust to save her notes. I can scan in a lot of photos in a short time. Turn off the flash and use in nice even lighting. I have scanned I several hundred photos in just a few hours. Very pleased..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Excellent scanning of old photosThis is a fast, simple and easy to use app for taking a photo of old photographs. Eliminates glare, gets the edge trims right. Would be good if user could edit the take back to when the original photo was taken and add a note.Version: 1.5.1
✓ So easy to useAfter 20 years of marriage and moving photos between houses this is a great app to store and then back up a life time of memories and be able to share those memories with others..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Good free appI have taken about thirty scans of photos so far and it does a good job and it also lets you crop the photos too and removes glare. The only slight downside is that it does keep crashing out, making the process a little time consuming..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great appDoes what it claims to do.Version: 1.3.1
✓ Brilliant appI love this app, it’s brilliant. I’ve taken copies of very old photos and it copied them fabulously. Highly recommend this app if you want digital copies of your paper photos. 👍👍👍👍.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Not so greatI like Google photos but not this one. it takes to much time to scan a photo so I like my normal camera more. I have just given it 3 stars. But Google photos, I gave it 5 stars..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Brilliant for scanning old photosWhat a great app this is for scanning old photos that don’t even lie flat. It’s very easy to scan the photos and pretty quick too. Highly recommended..Version: 1.7
✓ Awesome toolGreat way to digitize the photos!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Excellent photo qualityThis is an excellent way to digitalise your photos. However, make sure there is enough light and hold the ipad straight and steady. This way the quality will be excellent!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great quality scanned photosLove that I can scan the many photos I have from the past and put them on my digital frame to look at..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great for turning old film photos to a shareable digital format without paying extra for it.I choose PhotoScan as it’s the only app I know of that does not charge me to get full access to its features that helps me get my old film camera era photos to shareable format. It’s overall good but can be tenacious at times to get the right quality and lighting and avoid reflections though. Sometimes the edges needs to be readjusted to fit the photo. Though at least there is an option that doesn’t cost extra most others would charge for extra features or to access the app at all..Version: 1.5.1
✓ It’s basically magicSo I’m one of those “I never write reviews, but” yeah I’m here because I literally got teary-eyed when I saw the results of using Photoscan instead of just taking a photo of a photo. I have no-glare, not distorted, not faded photos of family from before I was born. I’d taken photos of these pictures before, because a lot of them are old and quite fragile and I wanted a record of their existence. The difference using Photoscan was…like I said, a little teary-eyed. Look, I was the girl who always had the camera, who holds reams of photos (from high school and college, especially) and puts a priority on protecting that physical print from time, wear, and tear. The Photoscan images are so good, they kinda look better than the print sometimes. It somehow balances the colors perfectly — not like a filter or editing black point, shadows, etc., but it just looks RIGHT. It’s better, but you wouldn’t realize it until comparing a couple of times. I am a photo person. I love looking back at these images, because you can hear stories about people all the time, but a photo…is so much more. And this app takes that next-level by preserving them the way they really look. It is incredible, and I truly think it’s the best “photo-to-computer” facilitator ever, including things like scanners. It’s simple to use and the results are stunning. Get it..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Very goodI’d taken copies out of an album without removing photos out from sleeves. There had been a few pictures that showed a hint of wrinkles but over all, I’m satisfied..Version: 1.7
✓ Photo scan qualityI am blessed with beautiful grandkids that came over to see me. As we have all been isolating and only going out for groceries, I needed their hugs. It was a great Mother’s Day and pictures that my daughter gave me I wanted to scan and post some of them because they are so beautiful and the scanner just makes the best quality picture I’ve ever seen a scanner produce. Very sharp detail. Not grainy. Thank you for fixing that graininess with scanning! The pictures are unreal ! Very good quality to them !!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Old photos you want to save?This ap is fab! I have photographed old family black and white photos so I can put them into a photo box book. This is so clever, it removes glare and the quality to my untrained eye looks really good. Some images are better than the originals. And for free! Amazing..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Formidable applicationPermet de scanner livres et photos en minimisant les reflets et en réduisant les effets de parallaxe..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Photo scanWhat a fantastic app I’m not very good at these things but this is the simplest and easiest app to use you don’t have to go through 10 stages to get to it like so many others thank you very much next stop Cheers. Frances and Gracie MPG NSW 2016.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Fabulous new techI have thousands of old paper photos to scan so I may not do them all with this app but I’m doing the big ones and the results are great.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Aha!I used to use this a lot but misplaced it. I keep a list of apps, their price, what the in-app purchases and ratings when I buy them. When I write a review I save a copy - after all, if I gave it one star 3 yrs previously it's probably not something I’ll bother with unless the version history looks promising. (some developers maybe shouldn't be so eager to truncate theirs). Getting rid of glare & shadow is unique to this app so not having it was distressing. How could I lose it and my review? I've had to reset to factory settings multiple times because the native Notes are crashing. I *love* Notes and used it daily. Crashing means I have to run in & run out before it crashes and guess how effective searching through all the apps named Photo Scanner, Scan Photo or some variation is? Right.* I couldn't count on my review helping me find it- if there's been a major rewrite of the app the App Store wipes the "out of date" reviews. * one star down for having a non-memorable name; pretty much the same name as least half of the others like it.Version: 1.7
✓ MrSimple to use, quick, good results..Version: 1.3
✓ The best app on my phoneOnly download this on a whim, I now want to dig out all our old photos. A few scans came out better than the original photo... I’m not even sure how that is possible!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ The Best!This is the best photo scanner ever!!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great little appGood integration with google photos. Intuitive. Would be even better if it could do whole page of an old album at once..Version: 1.3
✓ Great Scanner with some limitationsI have been using this app to recapture printed photographs. The scanned images are of great quality however, just like anything else there are several factors that need to be considered such as room lighting, condition of original, size of the original, etc. The program does not have photo editing tools, but the scanned image gives you a good copy to start with if you then want to edit it. Most of the images I was able to touch up using google photos edit tools and was satisfied with the results. I am sure the images would look even better with professional editing tools but like I said, this program gives you a better starting point that just taking a picture of the original or even worse scanning the photo..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great app to scan old photosDoes everything listed. Would be better if it has features to set time and location of the photo..Version: 1.7
✓ Digitize you historyApp does a great job at conveniently converting pics. I would like to say to google tho: PLEASE I hope when I scan my photos you don't collect and store anything. I should've read the policy agreement....Version: 1.4.1
✓ Wow!Amazing app. Ability to eradicate lens flare from photo is awesome. Thanks Google..Version: 1.2
✓ Great For Photo ArchivingThis is an amazing app! It lets you easily use your phones camera to “scan” physical photos. It auto detects the edges of the photo, works best if you put the photo on a contrasting surface (I.e. light surface for dark photo and dark surface for a light photo), so you don’t have to spend hours cropping the edges. You can then save the photos to your device or in the cloud. This is great for finally getting those old family photos online without having to mess with a printer/scanner and without paying someone else an arm and a leg!.Version: 1.5
✓ Jaw dropping!This is the most mind blowing app I've seen in a very long time! My mind is going crazy trying to figure out how it so seamlessly matches up the quadrants of the photo, and then magically orients your phot to the natural aspect ratio. I was just able to scan a couple of hours worth of pictures in less than 5 minutes. It's seriously take me longer to write this review than it took to scan a dozen pictures. If I could give it 6 stars, I would..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Super helpful photo appI love using this app almost daily to take photos of postcards and walk-mounted art. I collect postcards and often photograph them flight on a desk or table and, more likely than not, there will be glare from the ambient light. This app completely eliminates that glare. The app also tries to figure out where the borders of your image are, but lets you adjust them if you want a different image than the one it selected..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Oh wot s great app from GoogleGreat app, fantastic for digitally keeping those old family photos that even the negatives are beyond repair AAA+++.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Good but......It’s a good app, nothing really bad to say about it in regards to how the app works. However the only thing I can say needs work, which would have given 5 stars, is the app needs to be updated for the iPhone X screen resolution. Most of the other Google Apps have been updated to the iPhone X screen resolution, it’s time this one does too!.Version: 1.5
✓ Simple, easy, accurateExpected from Google… they did it again.Version: 1.6
✓ Honestly only app like this that works for meI like taking Polaroid pictures but if you want to digitise them they always come out horrible (reflections of phone and glare) but THIS app solves all those issues. So glad I found it. Absolutely amazing!.Version: 1.4.1
✓ So easy!Love this app. It is making a hard job I have put off for a long time easy.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing!!!This is simply amazing!!! I have albums upon albums of old family photos that needed to be scanned and shared amongst family members!! Since it was so simple I also went ahead and made my siblings beautiful photo books of all our childhood memories! This app made all that so simple! I am a 50(ish) yr young, even I could figure it out! Thanks very much!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great idea, super easy & well implementedThis is a great tool for getting old photos, epically ones your family won't part with, into digital. It's very easy to use and gives you good results most of the time. Users should beware of glare in the window when framing your shot. I'd *love* to see this product augmented with better editing tools or at least allow 3rd party integration within the app so I can edit my photos within Photoscan. Also, zooming in the main window would be quite helpful as would pre-photo resolution options..Version: 1.4.1
✓ So so impressed with this appSo impressed with this app. I’m an iPhone user and I have struggled to find a quick easy, free way to scan my old photos. I found the way, and it’s amazing.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Great resultsI have been scanning black-and-white photos and the quality is just fantastic. This app is highly recommended.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Great app to scan photosI am really impressed with the ease & quality of scanning. I’ve just copied over 50 photos for a birthday book & it’s turned out really well.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Works wellWorks well and takes off all reflections etc.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Fabulous!!!I don’t write reviews for apps but I am taking the time to do one for this app because I am so happy with it! I have struggled for a year with trying to get good photos of my paintings (i.e. no glare, no funky angle, etc) because I don’t have a fancy lighting so up with a tripod, etc and I can’t hold the phone still. I didn’t even have to take my paintings off of the walls to use this, even the ones that are hung way above my head (yes, I am short). It does give me a warning to try not to tilt the phone but even when I do, the scan is still great! It worked where the light was on and also where the painting only has normal indoor lighting (no lights on). I want to make a calendar with my artwork and I think this will allow me to do so very easily. So happy!!!!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ So far so good….🙂Works well. Easy to scan and share with others. Don’t know any other things it can do so watch this space!👍😁.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Good appI like this app. It takes photos of your photos and removes the glare. Sometimes some are a bit distorted so I just do them again..Version: 1.3.1
✓ Easy to useEasy to use. Love how it gets rid of any reflection of myself as I take a photo of the old photo. Does take time to scan each photo, so I recommend you put on some music or a podcast and just settle in.Version: 1.6
✓ ExcellentScanning a collection of old family photos. So easy and very good quality. Highly recommended..Version: 1.2
✓ Love Love Love This App!!!!!I was spending hours scanning photos on my Cannon Flat Bed. I can scan a photo in 3 seconds with this app! And I love that the pictures are immediately saved in both my Google Photos and IPhone Photos without being asked! Thank you for saving that step!!! A couple things to know. Click the lightning bolt on bottom of screen to turn off your flash and cancel out glare. It saves the extra seconds it takes to readjust the photo. Also don't let Google modify your picture when it pops up. It was cropping off heads and the focus of the picture when I went to look at them in my Google Photos. Thanks for making this great app!!!!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Getting better all the time.When I first installed this app I thought it was wonderful. But now I find it keeps getting better with every update. I’ve no idea how it works but it takes new perfect copies of 99% of photos. Occasionally I have to rotate a photo or retake one. However nearly every time the photo is perfectly copied with none of the surrounds showing. There are all sorts of tools for making adjustments but I’ve never had to use them. I occasionally rotate a picture. I give this app ten stars —- five isn’t enough..Version: 1.5
✓ Good for simple, glossyI found out after the fact that these were saving to my camera roll. Otherwise, the options of saving within the app are minimal and one at a time. I just did the 4-point scan for hundreds of photos with this app in preparation of a wedding. Biggest struggle: glossy photos are fine (I need to adjust about 1 of every 4 because it’s unusable), but the ones that have more of the matte finish are disasters. The app cannot adjust to the grainy texture of this kind of photo. And unfortunately, I had a lot of these. I’ve also had to play around with the room lighting quite a bit to find something optimal. Otherwise, I do like that the app can drastically reduce/eliminate glare on the more glossy, simple photos. It’s better than just the iPhone camera/app by itself!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ So easy for family historySo my easier than to scan my images for family history!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Super Easy to use. Thank you so much.My brother just passed away 2 days ago and this has really helped me save old photos as memories of him..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing technologyScanning old photo albums is always tedious, and sometimes no scanner is handy. So here’s an app that’s hard to believe is free! A great photo scanner in a phone. It’s also somewhat ok at scanning documents, even though that’s not really a feature..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Amazing!!!Great way of preserving your developed photos!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easily digitize old photosI started scanning old photos one at a time for posterity for my family. Was long and painful process. Happened to read about this app and downloaded it. Made things so much easier! I don’t even need to take pics out of albums. Just open the page, focus on desired pic, click and follow the dots. Then, just download them all from phone to hard drive. It takes a bit of getting used to so That the pic doesn’t get overexposed but it’s not difficult. Really appreciate how this app made a huge long-term project a lot easier..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Easy to useI don’t usually bother to review things. They have to be exceptional for me to bother. Either exceptionally good or bad. Very pleased to say this one is exceptionally GOOD. Very easy to use and easy to share images. No matter how shaky the hands or how wobbly the scan the image is perfect every time. Wish I’d found this years ago. Save wrestling with the computer and scanner!!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ An absolutely brilliant appWorks perfectly once you get the hang of it and I was really impressed with the results. Helped me capture some old photos in a rush for a very special cause. Cheers Google..Version: 1.5.1
