Very nice scanning app;The ability to scan batch image in quick seconds makes it superior to the odds but the inability to edit the text is the only negative aspect. please try to fix it to go beyond perfection . Thanks for the app.

I was honestly shocked by how good this is. I have tried at least 15 different bloated, expensive, flashy apps for organizing and this finally ticks almost all the boxes. It's clean and gives you great organizational options while the OCR quietly does it's job in the background. PDFs are exported with the recognized text which is fantastic. The only crucial thing I would add is automatic PDF export to cloud storage (ideally with the tags in the file description). You're doing amazing work!

Everything is nice and good but when choosing multiple images from gallery to make a document, the pages are arranged randomly and not in the order they were chosen. If this problem isn't fixed then I have to switch to some other app since arranging 60 or so pages takes a lot of time and I can't give it so much time when there are alternatives available
