SCAN SHOT document scanner pdf for Negative User Reviews
✓ AbonnementsJ’aimerais bien acheter votre scanner. Mais a 10$/Semaine ou + de 500$ / Année. Il devient usurier d’utiliser votre application. Alors pouvez-vous me faire une cash avec un seul paiement pour l’utilisation de votre Scan Merci P.. Dans l’attente de votre offre.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Disgrace waste of timeDon’t use this worthless app, money hungry people running it ..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Great potentialVery nice except when merging several pdf pages into one document, it only gives me the option to choose a file (not a photo) on the first page. When trying to add a second page, it automatically takes me to my photo album and there is no option to choose a file from elsewhere..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Poor payment processApp is not giving you access to the trial even after paying the requested amount. How do I get my money back?.Version: 1.13.10
✓ AnnoyingIt’s not a free app, nothing can be exported without a paid subscription. Great way to annoy potential customers..Version: 1.12.21
✓ NOT ACTUALLY FREELooks like a free application but will suddenly force you to make a $1.30 purchase at the last step of the process. if you’re just intending to use this once and you don’t want to pay, pick a different app!.Version: 1.11.0
✓ Useless unless you payDoes absolutely nothing unless you pay a subscription. Exactly what you need. Another. Subscription..Version: 1.17.10
✓ The worst!!!! Stolen fundsWould give 0 stars if possible. Been charging my account $6.99 a WEEK for the past year. Cancelled my subscription back in sep 2022 and just noticed I’m still being charged. 45+ times (over $300+ dollars) - no phone # to call and no response to email. Reported as fraud to Apple and will do the same w/ my bank. Do not download!.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Does not do the job I neededI bought this app to scan hand written paper work to convert to text. Seriously rubbish conversion. I’ve had to re type the entire 24 page document. Nothing was accurate. It also bunched all the text up the 1” on the left hand side of the screen. Not fit for purpose!.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Useless appThis “Free App” won’t let you export the image without charging you money. What other app forces you to pay money to download a photo. This app just crops photos that’s about it. I think I can find another app that crops a photo and doesn’t make me pay for it. If you want to make money on this try putting in ads because the function is the same as the camera app and I don’t need to pay for that..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Works well but NOT freeThis app works perfectly well but despite its claims, it is not “free” to do anything AT ALL. You can do nothing meaningful with this app without paying for it. And once you pay for it you must remember to cancel it. The app is great. But “free” is a scam. And so just out of principle I will never use it..Version: 1.15.0
✓ Free trial unless you want to use itDownloaded. Spent time editing and when you go to export or email then it only allows you to do it if you sign up to over £5 a month! Cat fishing at its best and a complete waste of my time.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Very suspicious.I used the app one time then deleted and canceled everything. Tell me why I got charged £9.99 on 3 different weeks. A total of £30 for NOTHING. And I am not getting a refund. Why?????.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Not useful to meI was trying to convert my documents into digital form so I could edit something. I scanned my documents and exported them. It was literally the pictures I took of it. I’m so upset. I could’ve took my own pictures of them on my phone if I wanted pictures of it. I tried both options and it still didn’t turn digital..Version: 1.9.10
✓ Terrible App DO NOT download!The only thing free about this app is downloading the app. Everything else you’re charged for. You can’t even do the bare minimum. As soon as you upload a picture it immediately asks you to pay. DO NOT download, you’ll just be wasting your time. Go to google and find a free website to scan your documents..Version: 1.12.31
✓ How do I cancel subscription?It’s not intuitive how to cancel a subscription. It will not allow me to do it through the app..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Can’t exportI scanned over 370 pages, and the app won’t let me export since it loads for seconds then gives me a black screen. I contacted customer service, and the instructions they gave did not work. You also don’t have the option to skip between several pages at once within the app to get to the final page of your document. Not worth your money..Version: 1.7.0
✓ DissatisfiedWanted to try the mobile scanner opted for the single 49p purchase to test it …I’ve had 2 x 9.99 subscriptions taken in one month out of my account and the 49p.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Disgraceful scamThis app is a disgrace and rubbish. I signed up with a view to using it for a few select documents as I couldn’t get to the office to scan and then to cancel within a few days (with payment of the first months fee). The app will not allow cancellation and redirects to apple. This is a scam.Version: 1.6.0
✓ ScamOne of those apps advertised as free, when you scan a document they hold you hostage or pay, you can’t do anything without paying, if you pay $0.99 you setup yourself for weekly charges of $7.99 Fake reviews, I don’t trust 5 stars reviews, it’s all fake, read the one star reviews and you will find the truth, APPLE SHOULD REMOVE this APP FROM THE APP STORE, but why if they make 30% cut!!!.Version: 1.17.10
✓ It feels like a scamTook me so long to take photos and scan the images but then I tried to export is as pdf so I could email it, it asked me to pay for it. So what’s free is only the camera 🤷♀️ I’m disappointed in wasting my time..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Dodgy setupI downloaded the app for single use, paid for the one week trial, it has continued deducting the money and wont allow me to cancel the subscription..Version: 1.8.11
✓ Not free at allFalse advertising..Version: 1.16.0
✓ Weekly chargeApp works well but have just realized that I have been charged £7.99 a week since downloading- no email correspondence and not clear that this would be charged when I downloaded it..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Lied??This app gave me the price of 0.99 per week. I was fine with this price. I do a lot of scanning and this app looked hopeful to help. But then when I went to see when another subscription billed, it showed the real price of $7.99 PER WEEK. nah, I don’t like sketchy stuff like that. Lost my business. Would have been different if they just gave that price outright I would have paid it..Version: 1.14.0
✓ Can’t cancel subscriptionAfter attempting to cancel subscription in app it tells me it can’t be done in app and I need to go to the App Store to cancel where there is also no way to cancel. I needed it for a couple of things and no longer need it but I can’t get rid of it now..Version: 1.8.11
✓ APP IS NOT FREE. Misleading and predatory pricing structureThe App Store page is very misleading and does not provide costs to user up front. Nor does the app immediately provide the pricing structure once opened. The pricing structure, which requires a forced auto-renewing subscription is predatory. This app’s strategy is to swindle users who have scanned a 50 page document into forced subscription payment. This app is not free, and conceals this from the user. I have nothing against an app charging users for its services, but this app perpetrates a bait and switch tactic. This is unacceptable and designed in bad faith..Version: 1.13.10
✓ OverchargeWhy do you continue to say on the purchase screen - 7 day full access £0.49 - but then when you go to pay it states £9.99. If you choose the monthly access it’s £5.49. You caught me out with this last time and I had to get a refund! It’s actually a decent app - why do this!!!!.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Not a good experienceI paid the 0.99 after scanning my documents I tried to export to a off and it said it didn’t recognize my subscription. It did this 3 times but it is active in my apple apps and has already confirmed the 0.99 for 7 days trial charge. I cancelled it after it did this but I still can’t export the off that I paid for with the 0.99 for 7 day trial deal. Help?.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Got to pay to actually use it.The fact you have to pay to actually use your documents and photos is shocking..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Cannot unsubscribe it keeps billing youZero stars. I suppose eventually they’ll sort it out but it should not take more than a few minutes to figure out how to cancel a subscription to anything.Version: 1.12.10
✓ This is a paid only app.They make it look like it might have free features but EVERYTHING on this app will require you to pay for it to use. Waste of time.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Useless unless you payWhat’s the point in a free pdf scanner if you can’t do anything with it unless you pay? Can’t even email it to myself. They just want your money..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Took My MoneySigned up for the free trial, cancelled on the day of sign up. Just had an invoice from Apple and you have taken money out of my canceled subscription..Version: 1.12.0
✓ Not freeCannot download or save your scan after you take the photo. This app requires you to pay!.Version: 1.12.10
✓ Not Free to UseFree to download but it prompts you for payment as soon as you start using it. Why not be honest and charge upfront so that users don’t waste their time downloading an app they don’t want?.Version: 1.12.21
✓ Time watingTime wasting to download it and on the end ask u to pay..Version: 1.15.0
✓ PaymentTakes Payment From your account more than the specified amount and they do it weekly when it’s specified as monthly.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Good but bewareGood app, but do not be fooled, you have to pay to use the app in any real sense. Kinda expensive too..Version: 1.17.10
✓ ScamThey don’t allow you to cancel your subscription and it says go to app store to do so but it doesn’t make sense how. Please cancel my subscription or Im going to take legal action. This is horrendous. I have sent emails and complaints but no response from the company yet. Do not download it!.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Completely uselessWhy advertise this app as free if the actual saving your document functionality, one might say the only important functionality, is not free? What a waste of time..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Not a free appOnly works with a paid subscription! To export a file it’s £1 for a week, and then it renews at £8 a week! What a scam. And what’s more, it says user content may be collected! Avoid at all costs. Oh and there are no useful free features if you can’t export a document that you scan, so no misunderstanding on my part..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Time wasting appCome on what the hell. If you’re not a free app don’t pretend to be free. Dishonest and Misleading. Let me go through tall man he steps to sign a document Then ask me to pay before I can save, send or do anything else..Version: 1.12.21
✓ News print clean upLimited ability to clean up background news print, not quite suitable for clean printing. No function to enable 2nd or multiple passes to refine the scan quality.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Awful and can’t unsubscribe in the appText is all out of order, it takes longer to tidy up the document than to just type it all out. Plus I can’t unsubscribe in the app and have had to lodge an inquiry with Apple..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Bait and SwitchLike others I signed up for a free trial and then $1.29 only to see the company billing me $10.49 per WEEK. Predatory billing practices. Avoid..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Over charged and it’s disgustingDo yourself a favor and go to a place and get your documents scanned. This app doesn’t do half decent job of scanning and if you need documents scanned for any legal purposes this is definitely not gonna work, I had to go to staples and get everything redone and rescanned cause this scanner never cropped the documents right as a picture, and you download thinking it’s gonna be .99 a week when I noticed they were charging me 7.99 a week what a scam and on top of that I canceled the subscriptions 2 weeks ago and what happens? It still charging my card.Version: 1.12.21
✓ StupidNeed to add SIM card scan.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Does not edit original.Does not allow editing of original document. What’s the point of exporting just the text ?.Version: 1.13.10
✓ ScamI downloaded this app as I had 2 photos I needed to convert to pdf’s. The cost showed as 0.79p however each week I have been charged £7.99. I went to the app to unsubscribe as the next morning was charged a further £7.99. It has now cost in excess of £50. I have now deleted the app and asked for a refund.Version: 1.12.31
✓ NO Free optionDownloaded this app to try out for free but then as soon as I tried to export the file I scanned to an email or save to a file or anything it makes you pay for a subscription. There is no way to fully trial this app without paying for it first..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Cancelled SubscriptionI could’ve swore I canceled my subscription after one week of use for something for my father in law but as I’m just now checking my Apple ID email I’ve found that I’ve been charged $7.99 every week most likely going back the last year and a half. Super predatory and I can’t even cancel my subscription in my Apple ID settings. Would not recommend..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Can’t use without buying subscriptionApp site seems like you’ll be able to export documents that you scan. I was expecting the subscription to mean none of the fancy features like writing to text, but I can’t even save a PDF to my phone without paying or doing the free trial. No option is available to export/get document out of the app, essentially makes the app useless. Do not download..Version: 1.12.10
✓ Awful DONT DOWNLOADThis is NOT a free app. You will download under the guise of being free just to find that after you scan your document, you MUST pay them to export as a pdf or even as a normal jpg. Awful app, just ask for money up front if you’re not going to let people use the app unless they pay. Works terribly, feels cheap, there are thousands of actually free alternatives SAVE YOURSELF THE TIME, EFFORT and MONEY!!.Version: 1.12.21
✓ CancellationI wish to cancel this App. When I am in the App I am told to cancel via the App Store. In the App Store I am immediately sent through to the App. This seems like an eternal loop with no way to cancel. Please advise..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Too much to do and too buggyWhen trying to group a load of scanned documents together, you have to set the frame on every image instead of it remembering the frame to start for all. Then when trying to set the frame it’s so buggy..Version: 1.12.31
✓ AVOIDMy son downloaded this to my phone to scan a document. It said free for first week then £5.49 per month after, we were on with that… 9 weeks later I have noticed after only using the app once they have been taking £9.99 a week from me and last week they took two payments for the same amount. They are now refusing to refund and saying I have to go through apple. Apple are saying because I requested the service I am not eligible. £100 down the drain for nothing! Corrupt as hell.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Very cheap way to sell its not free app.It is useless app ..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Not FreeScanned my 10 documents and had to pay to export it to photos..Version: 1.10.0
✓ Not free appThis app trick you to scan documents then when you try to email it it asks you for money, very bad.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Beware! Ocr monthly limitThis app has ocr monthly limit for paying customers after ocr ing 200 hundred pages. They don’t mention anywhere in their app about the ocr limit. Why is there a limit for paying customers??? Response to Developers response ; you guys are not even reading the reviews, non of your plans mentions ocr limits. I’m asking simple question. What is the ocr limit and why there is no mention anywhere on the app about this limit? Also, stop telling people to email you. You NEVER answer your emails..Version: 1.12.10
✓ ScamThey trick you to use the app, but you can not even download the file from it without paying..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Don’t install !It’s scam! i paid to turn a picture into a pdf and when i go to put my application to a website it says that it’s invalid! if i could put 0 stars, i would..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Who do I contact?Hi, I needed to use this once what I didn’t know was that after a scan the document that I need to turn into a pdf was that there would be a $0.99 charge to save it. I ended the subscription right after I scanned the document and saved it and I deleted the app how can I get a refund because I don’t need the full 7day trial I just needed one document done so I can get records from my father’s military service he passed away in 2018. If I can’t get a refund I just know for in the future not to use this app. Or recommended this app to anyone. There should never be a charge for a 7 day trial that’s a rip off especially for a one time use.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Achat non renouvelé.Je n’ai jamais utilisé cet application et un montant de 15.50$ a été perçue dans mon compte visa. S.v.p. me rembourser..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Not worth downloadHave to pay and the scanner isn’t too great.Version: 1.17.0
✓ Not a free appI’m sure the app is great but its useless unless you want to pay for it..Version: 1.12.31
✓ ConGot free trial and couldn’t export any of my scans without signing up and paying. Rubbish waste of time.Version: 1.12.10
✓ All of that effort just for it to tell me thisDo not get this app. I wanted to covert an image in my camera roll to a PDF. I went to all the effort of downloading the app with high hopes and then cropping the photo, just for it to tell me if I want to save it I have to do a trial. Shut up.Version: 1.12.10
✓ UselessIt doesn't add any value except for exporting scans to PDF format. You can get the same result (or better) when you take a photo with a phone camera..Version: 1.17.10
✓ DisappointedThis app works perfectly fine, I’ve used it before but I recently had to scan one document and they said it was “.99” that I had to pay to use it for week and proceeded to charge me “9.99” afterwards. Instead of putting that misleading information, you guys should simply put the actual price because that’s not fair to your customers..Version: 1.15.0
✓ FraudThey are fraud..they keep charging me without telling me..they charged me 15 dollars even though i ended the subscription.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Google doc works betterNot worth the money..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Sneaky Money Maker appIt’s very sneaky how they try to have you pay for basically all the features of the app once you’ve downloaded, taken the pictures of all your documents and then whamo! You must now pay in order to complete the last step… So close to having it all done yet so far away… Sneaky and dishonest IMO….Version: 1.15.0
✓ Not freeDownliaded the app to try OCR and found after all the rigmarole that I’d have to pay to do that. App deleted..Version: 1.13.10
✓ ScamSubscribed $1.29 for 1 week trial. Got offers for long term which I did not subscribed to. Then found out I was being billed $10.49 a week without any kind of pre-warning at trial subscription..Version: 1.12.21
✓ MisleadingIm writing my first review. This company is greedy and holds your documents hostage if you just want to pay for a one time usage. I used it to scan some important documents. Canceled subscription after im done. Nope, i have to pay 7.99 in order to just have access to to manage the what i want to do with those documents monthly. For an example, This is like Buying an iPhone for 800 dollars. Deciding you just want to use it to take pictures not pay for phone services. Then apple decides they want a monthly fee to allow you to manage your pictures to send. It’s greedy companies like this banking on you forgetting to cancel your subscription after use in order to take advantage of billing you another charge too. Why do they need to be paid monthly for me to take pictures and save them to my own hard drive?.Version: 1.12.10
✓ It’s not free as it saysIt’s not free as it says.Version: 1.16.0
✓ Free! I don’t think soThey want to charge you before you get to send the first scan..Version: 1.12.31
✓ ???What is the point of making the app free if you have to pay to use it? I see developer responses to comments saying “you’re free to use features” but if you can’t do the one thing you want to use it for, i.e. exporting the PDF you make then you can’t, considering that’s literally half of the useful “features”.Version: 1.12.21
✓ Cancel all of your subscriptionThey scammed me out of $80 for not letting me cancel the weekly $10 fee after I paid for the 1 day package. Extremely scummy.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Scam!! Do not download!!The good reviews on this app are fake. They will get your info to start charging you and then won’t allow you to cancel. They have been stealing from me for months!! They have disabled the ability to cancel subscriptions in their app and it tells you that you have to visit the App Store. There is no way to cancel a sub in the App Store. Super scummy business practice! Beware!!.Version: 1.14.0
✓ PDF FormatDoes not forward two files together without merging like AC-1 and AC-2. One can forward AC-1 and then AC-2 or merge and forward as a single file. First time use was supposed to be free but was charged for a week. Please see that no further renewal is applied without consent. Best wishes. Avinash Chandra.Version: 1.12.21
✓ One of the worst apps everI downloaded this because I quickly needed to scan a single page. Everything in this app is subscription based. You can barely access th basic features. Stuff you would think would be mandatory for use is blocked behind paywalls. I have used PDF scanning apps before that were free and did not require subscriptions to do any of this basic stuff. If you click anything on this crumby app you just get directed to a page saying you have to pay for access… You can’t even download a scanned file in to your phone’s file app! I have never written a review before but this app was so awful here I am. Edit - without a doubt 99% of their reviews are fake.Version: 1.12.31
✓ They made it so complicated to cancel subscriptionI only needed for one use, so I purchased for a week plan. After that, i would not be able to cancel it. Not happy about that. They even made so complicated to post a negative review. Drop from 3 star to 1.Version: 1.12.10
✓ Terrible appMakes it extremely difficult to unsubscribe. Would not recommend at all.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Be carefulI only needed this once so used a 7 day free trial, I only found later it was billing me £5.99 per week and it was hard to work out how to cancel.Version: 1.11.0
✓ UselessIt’s a paid app. Can’t export anything without swiping a cc..Version: 1.13.10
✓ It’s not freeScanned a whole bunch of pages and then when I went to convert to pdf it requires me sign up to a subscription of $1.49 per week. Ended up downloading Scanner app and doing it for free..Version: 1.12.0
✓ Other scan apps comparableI am happy to have an app that allows me to send documents easily. This is much lower in cost so I am giving it a shot. Pics scanned aren’t as clear as my last app and are grainy. Hopefully this will get better.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Works but can’t unsubscribe easilyAs others have written, really hard to cancel subscription, their standard response doesn’t actually tell you how to cancel. I only realised I was in a subscription when Apple notified me of a 2bd payment, I thought I’d paid for a 1mi the only use. My fault maybe, but wasting time trying to cancel now. Because of this I will delete the app and use something else next time. Shame as product works fine..Version: 1.8.11
✓ It’s free to download but asks for payment to save document… use your notes appThis is sponsored when you google how to scan a document. I used the app thinking wow it’s easy but then they ask for money to save the pdf. Apple already gave us the ability to do this in our notes. You make a new note, click on the camera, then choose scan document. Scan it then you can share it as a note or hold your finger on the document and different ways to share will pop up. :).Version: 1.14.0
✓ Please put the paywall soonerApp is deceiving, lets you take photo and scan but only tells you that you have to pay once you try to export..Version: 1.12.31
✓ What’s the Point?What’s the point in scanning if I can’t export the documents I need before being hit with a paywall just make the app paid in the first place. Absolutely stupid. I love getting the garbage copy and pasted dev response. Your app is still ridiculous that you need a subscription plan to use a basic feature so shame on you for trying to charge it..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Takes your moneyThis app makes you do a weekly subscription of $.99, but doesn’t let you cancel the subscription. If you click “cancel subscription” in the app, it will tell you the only way to cancel is to go to the App Store. However, there is nothing in the App Store that gives you the option to cancel. There are no instructions to follow from there. Very disappointing..Version: 1.13.10
✓ No cxlation optionThere is not an option to cancel the subscription even when you said you can cancel at any time.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Potentially good app ruined by subscription modelWho thought a subscription model would work for a small, niche app category like a mobile document scanner!? I would happily pay a couple of pound for this app as a one off but not more than that amount on a monthly basis! Deleted purely because of your business model. EDIT: The developer’s response shows they didn’t even understand that I do not agree with a subscription model for this app. They just don’t get it, clearly. Enjoy your missing revenue then, devs!.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Useless!It’s useless! Tried to print ½ page pdf and it printed 3 pages with 2-3 words per line.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Don’t Do ItIt literally takes a picture of your document. It doesn't scan text at all! I can take a picture with my phone eh!.Version: 1.13.10
✓ This app is useless unless you want to spend $10 a weekWas hoping to convert a jpeg to PDF and you can’t even do that without subscribing to the premium. Fortunately I read other reviews before upgrading so I was not personally robbed. There isn’t a single thing you can do on this without paying for the premium services. Why they don’t just list it as a paid app I don’t understand. Don’t waste your time here.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Don't waste your timeThis vile app is truly a waste of the precious time it takes to download, setup and use. Once you've done something with a document, the only way you can export or use it in any way is to pay them a fee. The ongoing weekly rate after a very limited trial period is obscenely high. And just what happens if you forget to cancel before the trial period? I don't mind paying a reasonable price for a legitimate app, but this is not the one..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Good product, sneaky pricingAs other reviews have said, the pricing is weekly after the free trial, which is clearly VERY expensive. I’m sure I’ll get a fairly prompt reply to this review saying that it was clearly shown etc etc. But let’s be real here, it’s a deliberate tactic to get as much money out of people as possible before they notice. The app is totally fine..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Either Glitch with Pricing or False AdvertisingI purchased a 1 week subscription for premium features on the app. It was advertised to me as costing less than 2 dollars (1.xx I can’t remember exactly) so I clicked on it, but I was charged $10.49 and was told I signed up for a $10.49 per week subscription. Either there is a glitch or an error in advertising here..Version: 1.12.31
✓ This app is predatoryThis app is a money grab. It makes it look like you’ll get some features for free, but then when you need to export a file, they make you pay. That’s not even the worst part. They let you join for $0.99 for the first week. Then, your subscription auto-renews at $7/week. That’s more than most apps charge per month, and there’s really not much functionality here to begin with. I feel like this is acting in bad faith and is just predatory behavior by the developer. If they want to charge for this app, fine, but it should at least be reasonably priced..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Not free.Won't let you export anything until you pay so no functionality with the app even for a single test pdf.Version: 1.14.0
✓ Some serious errorsEasy to use but frequently mixes up the ordering of sentences within a document when converting from image to text. The words are correct but in the wrong order. Not sure why this happens..Version: 1.12.21
✓ Useless Free Trial!!!Don’t bother. It will ask you to pay to generate the pdf..Version: 1.14.0
✓ DifficultI’m elderly and can’t find out how to save the scanned shots to my photos or how to send them by email..Version: 1.16.0
✓ Works well but sneaky pricing is weeklyI kept this app as it worked really well and I thought the default pricing after the free trial was monthly, as that’s standard for apps and if you look at the pricing they don’t say weekly. BE AWARE It’s really not clear at all that it’s actually weekly and I didn’t notice the costs being charged every week for a while. I think this is very poor practice and the function you get is just not worth that level of costs so rated it down as a result. The weekly nature is the costs should be much more evident..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Should not be on appstoreThis app is misleading They should ask for money even before download..Version: 1.13.10
✓ They bait you to steal from youThe app works well and everything, but they lack integrity and, for me, that’s worth a one star rating. They bait you by showing you a price of $0.99 but then I found a week later they charged $10 to my credit card. I don’t remember agreeing on this and I thought the $0.99 I paid before was going to be a one time payment. On top of that, when I try to cancel my subscription, it turns out you literally can’t cancel it from within the app. You have to do it from the Apple Store instead, which honestly makes for terrible user experience and it’s obvious they set it up that way to trick people into paying more and making it hard for them to cancel..Version: 1.17.0
✓ ReviewWon’t let me cancel my subscription and keeps taking money from my account when I no longer have the app on my phone.Version: 1.17.10
✓ How do I scan and activate a QR or bar code?How do I scan and activate a QR or bar code?.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Unusable without subscriptionYou’re unable to export anything, in any format, without a premium subscription, effectively rendering the free version of the app entirely useless..Version: 1.13.10
✓ LameYou intentionally ask for payment at the last step. You wasted my time letting me edit and create my pdf and then only at the end said it would cost money to export it. If you need to make money that’s great but just say that up front. You know what you’re doing. It’s shady and unethical. Now you get a 1-star review. I’m deleting. And I’ll never use your products again. Don’t be shady. Just tell people it’ll cost money. Don’t trick them..Version: 1.17.0
✓ Terrible app.Just spent 10min “scanning” my documents where I just took pictures and manually cropped them bc the green highlight wouldn’t show up. Then when I go to save them, it forces me to pay. Screw that. Be up front about your costs, don’t pretend we can scan some docs for free and then try to charge after we spend time in the app. Don’t download this..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Great AppIt’s a great app, but you need to add a better way for users to cancel their subscriptions other than going to their App Store profiles. If you can add an option to buy subscriptions within the script, you can have a link where people can cancel directly within the script. There’s going to be a nice chunk of people who won’t figure out how to do it otherwise, thus your being able to make a profit off their ignorance. I think this is why you had it set up that way. If that’s the case, what you’re doing is wrong. Integrity is everything. I’ve installed many apps; their reviews usually don’t have people complaining about not knowing how to cancel. (Edit: I had already canceled the subscription prior to making this post, but I had to scroll through the comments on this page for the tutorial. Thanks.).Version: 1.8.0
✓ Great appGreat app but I don’t use it enough and want to unsubscribe, it won’t let me🙄..Version: 1.7.0
✓ SCAM!!!DO NOT USE -my free trial turned into a weekly $8.99 subscription I never agreed to that is listed as “free trial” every time - sometimes they would randomly charge me twice a week… was going on for 8 weeks… I’m gonna make sure apple refunds me and hopefully spread the word to get these app developers caught. DO NOT DOWNLOAD.Version: 1.12.10
✓ Waste of time…After you go through the download, install, scanning and editing your documents- you only find out that you have to pay to save the document… Information that it’s a paid app should be available upfront - otherwise it’s deceptive and waste of time!.Version: 1.12.10
✓ ReviewWhere are these 5 star reviews shows 4.6 stars but not one 5 star review.Version: 1.14.0
✓ Rip offEnded up having to literally pay for every feature that is actually useful - just wanted to scan image to text but it couldn’t do that.Version: 1.6.0
✓ ConYes the use of this app was handy, however I have just realised a few hundred dollars have been taken from my account from this app in the last year. Totally furious..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Deceptive practices & unauthorised charges. BEWARE!My encounter with Scan shot app revealed a troubling pattern of fraud. Despite unsubscribing, the app continued charging my account without authorization. Attempts to reach customer support were futile, with no resolution in sight. Scanshot's disregard for user rights and lack of accountability highlight its unethical practices. I urge caution to prospective users; don't fall victim to its deceitful tactics. The convenience it offers is overshadowed by the risk of being ensnared in a cycle of unauthorized charges and futile refund requests. Until Scanshot addresses these issues and demonstrates a commitment to rectifying its deceptive practices, I cannot in good conscience recommend it. I urgently request that you investigate this matter and promptly refund the unauthorized charges. Failure to address this matter in a timely manner will compel me to escalate this complaint to relevant consumer protection authorities and explore further legal options..Version: 1.17.10
✓ How to link with email?I’d like to export my scan by email but no instructions as to how to remove block on this.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Not happy with subscriptionNeeded to scan and when completed, when saving down, always wants a subscription payment. Quality of scan is just as poor as a photo so save the money and take a photo instead. Should advise on the tin that you have to pay to print, save or email. Not good..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Why make an app free when it’s notWasted my time downloading this only to realise you can’t save unless you pay for a subscription..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Not a free appIt looks like a good app but it’s not free so I felt a bit misled. You cannot export a document with the free version. Why would you want to scan something that can’t be exported?.Version: 1.12.31
✓ It’s okIt works like most PDF converter apps. It’s a hassle and a convenience to be able to custom crop your pages. It’s convenient if you have OCD and want it to be a specific way. But, it’s inconvenient if you’re short on time and that’s the only way to do it. Other than that the app is good. If they had faster ways to crop and edit, I would rate it better. The app would be perfect if it scanned it from the page/ book/ etc., to a document, instead of converting a picture..Version: 1.12.10
✓ Arnaque!!Abonnement impossible à annuler. $$$ Attention!.Version: 1.12.21
✓ No free trialIt’s deceptive, if you have to pay make that clear. Don’t make me go through the entire process of downloading the app and uploading a photo to change to PDF to be told you have to pay when you go to save it..Version: 1.9.10
✓ MisleadingThe whole concept that’s being spread actually requires payment, which is something I was not expecting..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Not usefulThis app is just waste of time because one cannot share the data he scanned than whats the point of scanning. 😒.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Disappointed in the descriptionBe aware yes it’s free to scan something but then comes the catch, don’t try to save it outside the scanner, that’s Whalen you find you have to pay. Hate it when something claims free then does this..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Sneaky. Deleted immediatelyBe aware. Implies free features with “in App purchases “. In practice you can scan a document but you can do NOTHING with it unless you set up payment. Tried it and found you can’t even screenshot the page, or do ANYTHING with it unless you pay. Price is much too expensive..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Free?Sure the app is free to download but I can’t see a way to send any scans without signing up for expensive add ons. Did I miss something here?.Version: 1.7.0
✓ SubscriptionI cannot delete my subscription it’s so stupid they keep trying to take money out of my account.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Have to pay to convert the image into a jpeg/ pdf not worth itI would rather see ads than pay.Version: 1.9.10
✓ Not one document?I couldn’t even export one 13 page document without paying, considering how easy it is to make one of these in Python I would least allow one document to be exported before having to pay.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Sneaky pricingIt’s very unclear pricing. The app works well but it automatically set up a £9.99 per week charge when I thought you could just pay for a one off scan..Version: 1.17.10
✓ False advertisingThis application is advertised as Free image to text (OCR). This is not correct. They get you to upload images and scans. Agree to let them access your device and images, locations, etc… and then when you submit request you upgrade to premium to use the feature. Don’t advertise free services that aren’t free..Version: 1.15.0
✓ Hard to Cancel SubscriptionIf only you could just pay for this app once and let it be. But it insists on a weekly subscription. I thought I’d just buy a week so I could scan what I needed but now I can’t figure out how to cancel it so it won’t renew the subscription on my card. It didn’t really do what I wanted it to either, it messed up the formatting.Version: 1.12.10
✓ There is no unsubscribe function in the appThere is no unsubscribe function in the app. I eventually found the form you have to fill out to ASK to be unsubscribed. If filled out the form and I’m still paying the subscription because they have not unsubscribed me. Buyer beware..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Hellish to use and then it’s not free to save.Incredibly painful to import photos! Adding pics is fine, but then you need to manually rescale the crop box for EVERY SINGLE IMAGE. And it doesn’t scale with a simple drag like normal crop frames, you need to manually walk each corner or side to the edge of the page. There is no, “capture whole image” option, so if you skip this step or only scale the first page, you get a random portion of the other ones. Then, safer all that painstaking work, you get to the export stage, and it demands money. Even in the “free trial” Major UX Fail. And actively alienates potential paying customers rather than persuading them to purchase the product..Version: 1.15.0
✓ This App Stole From Me! Continued my subscription after canceling!Do not get this app. I got it to save some time typing on a computer for a school assignment. I signed up for the monthly plan to be able to scan from my camera to pdf, and when I canceled my subscription they continued to charge me for months. It also did it not work well (changed the format and ruined the punctuation and spelling of the writing I scanned). This app has been charging me $7.99 EVERY SINGLE WEEK when I canceled my subscription the same day I signed up, because I only purchased the subscription for the one assignment and was not satisfied when the pdf scanner barely worked. If I am given a refund my review will be taken down, but as of now this app had been steeling my money. Do not trust them**.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Misleading on PaymentSo I payed $0.99 with Apple Cash, not my credit card, to use Doc Scanner because I only needed it temporarily. It did not show up as an active subscription on my phone. 3 months later I check my credit card and I have 11 purchases from this app ranging from $7.99 to $9.99. The app is very misleading on payment. You also can’t cancel subscriptions on the app either, you have to go to Apple settings. This is how they make their money. They also must buy some of their reviews to be able to have more than 4 stars. Most of the coherent reviews talk about how misleading the app is on payment..Version: 1.13.10
✓ Avoid much better alternativesI never wrote a review on the app, but for this one I felt like I had too. Purchased the app for its ability to scan multiple photos and extract text from the photos. This function is really poorly designed in the app, every photo you need to select the areas of photo where the text is, and this task is nearly impossible to handle. The tool doesn’t respond properly and what should take 5 minutes took almost an hour to complete. You might as well use iPhone’s text extractor. I would not recommend this app to anyone. Waste of time and money..Version: 1.12.31
✓ DisappointedI was under the impression this app would scan pictures, I even paid an extra for it and it does not.Version: 1.12.31
✓ DisappointedI unsubscribed from here too many times it’s continuing charging me every week..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Scam!!! Please read first!!Don’t install this app. It allows you to scan but not download your documents. In order to download documents after scanning, you have to purchase a subscription. The app developer will continue to charge your card regardless of if your cancel your subscription or not. I contacted Apple, and they can’t do anything on their end since this app is a third party app. I have to contact the developer. I’m still waiting to hear back from them. Save your time and money, please read this and don’t get this app! -If you’re the app developer and see this review, please respond to my email and stop charging my card!!.Version: 1.17.10
✓ HorribleDO NOT DOWNLOAD! They don’t advertise that to get features like pdfs or jpg or anything they offer on the app you have to pay. I was trying to do a pdf and had all my information in and at the very end you have to pay. If you don’t have the money, this app is completely useless. I now have one that does the same thing for free. BYE!.Version: 1.17.10
✓ Why is this app not removed? This is false advertising they text conversion is never seen.That’s all.Version: 1.13.10
✓ Read Info About Subscription Before DownloadingI downloaded this for a picture to text converter. However, this app requires you to pay to access that feature. Just an FYI for people on IOS devices: If you go to you files app, click the the three dots to open a menu , click snap documents, and then take a pic of what you want converted into a PDF, it does is for you and has worked well every single time for me! There is no need for an app, so even though O should have read the details of this one more clearly, I was very very surprised that the only accessible feature was something I can already do without the app..Version: 1.7.0
✓ Recognition is terribleSo to say the text recognition on this program could be better is a bit of an understatement. I have difficult to read handwriting but even with great effort to write legibly this program at best recognizes seventy percent of what I write. I know I’m a tough case with legibility but I thought this program would fair a little better. With an expensive mandatory subscription service. And I say expensive because the services you are getting aren’t worth any monetary value in my opinion. Canceling the service is proving difficult as well. The whole thing feels like a cash grab for a service that quite frankly doesn’t work well enough to be worth even its meager subscription fee..Version: 1.12.31
✓ Fraud Alert. Don’t download this appToday they renewed my subscription by choosing a bigger plan without even asking me they directed money from my account been I hadn’t allowed them to do so because my first transaction was with Apple Pay..Version: 1.13.10
✓ SCAM - DO NOT DOWNLOADI repeat *** do not download***** even the $1.49 trial is not legit. They scam you in to a weekly subscription. What a joke. ***** Do Not download ******.Version: 1.12.31
✓ Not free at allSays 1 week free but you have to pay to use it .. Very sneaky !! When I did use it was disappointing...Version: 1.6.0
✓ Need more details on how to unsubscribeI tried to cancel the subscription and the app says they can’t do it on my behalf and I should visit app store..Version: 1.17.10
✓ Tricked into paying for exportNot impressed. Was advertised as free but isn’t. To be able to export the scan you have to pay.Version: 1.12.0
✓ Can’t change textCan’t change text on any document at all it comes up after I can the text and then I edit the words and then type done and nothing changes on the screen I try to delete it and nothing deletes off the screen total waste of money.Version: 1.12.31
✓ It’s not freeMust pay to export.Version: 1.13.10
