How many times in my life I have heard the words "Also bring a copy of the document" - do not count. Always had to use a real scanner, which, as often happens in such situations, is not close. Over time, the peripheral devices become cheaper and got more and more widespread, but their MFP, I never got, and the need for copies of various documents has not gone anywhere. The modern world gives us many opportunities and today we look at one of them - turning your phone into a portable scanner. It helps us in this application TinyScan Pro. By the way, at the moment Pro version of the application is distributed free of charge.
The application has a minimum of settings that allow you to perform the required tasks, while not particularly immersed in the process. After the launch we were met by a screen with five buttons on the bottom panel, three of which are not necessary as long as you do not make at least a few copies of your documents.
Let's start with the settings. In fact, you can only change two parameters: the default page size and set a password for entrance into the application that will be useful to those who make copies of important documents. Extra vigilance never hurts.
There is also a function of Wi-Fi DriveWhich allows you to upload a document from your phone using the browser of your computer. To do this, you need to be a computer on the same network.
Now look at what the app is capable. Switch to shooting mode, take a picture of the document and the first that fell pleasantly surprised - the application automatically defined edge of the document, thus avoiding the manual cropping (in other scanners applications I did not saw). It coped with this task well, so I moved on to the next stage, where you can set the image parameters. The first button is responsible for our type of copies, you can select from three options: color, black and white, shades of gray. The second is responsible for the brightness and contrast.
On the next screen, we need to enter a file name. If you have a lot of documents, it may be useful in the application has the ability to search and sorting by name, you can also sort them by date, and choose the type of display: big or small thumbnails. When everything is ready, we can carefully consider what we've got and exported to the desired service or just to save the gallery. The resulting image quality is very good, to believe that it really is "Scan". Settings that there is little, you can not touch it and leave it at that.
I have enjoyed similar applications, some of them had a rich functionality and a flexible adjustment received copies, but TinyScan I liked it for its simplicity. If you want to make a copy quickly and do not spend too much time on the settings, it is uniquely suited for this purpose. In addition, recall, the application is now distributed.
