App summary

TurboScan is a one time cost for life! TurboScan turns your phone into a full-featured and powerful multipage scanner for documents, receipts, notes, whiteboards, photos, or other everyday text. With TurboScan, you can quickly scan your documents in high quality and store or send them as multipage PDF or JPEG files.

Note! You can scan and send up to three multipage documents with this free version.

TurboScan uses advanced fast algorithms to accurately detect document edges, straighten the documents (correct perspective), eliminate shadows and set a perfect contrast - black on white.

TurboScan boasts a powerful yet easy to use interface. Get instant one-tap brightness, rotation and color controls all on one screen!

TurboScan also offers SureScan, our proprietary scanning mode for sharper scans (especially useful in low-light conditions.) SureScan requires taking three pictures of the same document with the phone camera.

TurboScan's handy "Email to myself" feature lets you send documents to a predefined address, or even upload them to online storage sites like Dropbox, with a single tap.

All processing happens on your phone, and the confidentiality of your data is never compromised (no Internet connection needed.)

TurboScan features:
• Automatic document edge detection and perspective correction
• SureScan mode for very sharp scans
• Ultra-fast processing (under 3 seconds per page)
• Document naming, storage inside the app and search
• Multipage editing: add, reorder, and delete pages
• Copy pages between stored scans
• “Email to myself” feature for quick emails
• Email document as PDF, JPEG or PNG, or save to camera roll
• Arrange multiple receipts or business cards on a PDF page
• Open PDFs or JPEGs in other apps like the free Dropbox app (or Evernote, GoogleDrive, OneDrive app, etc) to send to clouds, or fax apps
• Printing via Cloud Print or other print apps
• Instant one-tap brightness, rotation, and color controls
• Compact attachments with adjustable size


Tips on scanning
• Make sure your document is flat and well lit.
• For best edge detection, include some margin around your document while shooting.
• Use flash in low light conditions, but avoid glare with glossy documents.
• If your flash over-saturates images or makes them blurry, please change the flash option in app Settings

I mean, it rules. I have to scan tickets pretty much every day at work, and this app does it perfectly. Emails scans to my work email for me to do what I need to with them. So much easier than using the scanner on the printer. As a bonus I never have to lift the lid of my printer to scan so I can leave it closed and display my Star Wars figures. It's a win win. Get this app!

TurboScan is the absolute BEST APP I have EVER used! It has revolutionized the way I work (it allows me to process documents & images from anywhere for my business) - AND, it helps me stay more organized with my personal life & personal organization, as well. Also, the photo & scan quality are awesome :) TurboScan is "worth its weight in gold" - And is a real "game changer" with ALL the ways it can be used. Thank You, TurboScan!!

Update: I just received a pdf scan from a competitor "genus" scanner app. This is still better. You can also take photos of documents people send you and convert to PDF happy going on 3 years. This is a high quality and fast smartphone scanner. Has a great feature for eliminating distortion. 1 and 1/2 year later stll a great app. its the fastest way to scan 1 page douments pictures or receipts. Probably up to 3 pages would be faster than plugging in the scanner.
