SwiftScan

SwiftScan – as the name suggests, this is an Android tool for high-quality scanning of documents in PDF format (utility bills, business cards, store receipts, travel and concert tickets, business contracts, important notes, long lectures, travel tickets, and so on), which integrates with the most popular cloud storage services (Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, Box, Yandex). The principle of operation of the program is simple and repeats the capabilities of numerous analogues – you need to photograph a document using the built-in mobile camera or select any material from the user’s personal gallery. Moreover, before saving an electronic document in Portable Document Format, the Scanbot utility carries out detailed processing of the source image, improving its quality, and at the same time the quality of the final document.

The advantages of SwiftScan include the ability to save the result in a resolution of 200 dpi, which is comparable to the quality of a full-fledged stationary scanner. The program correctly and completely autonomously, without the slightest human intervention, sets the boundaries of the “source”, works with the entire color palette and supports scanning in multi-page format. The Scanbot interface sets you up for intuitive work, since you can start the scanning process and access any options in just a couple of taps – selecting the quality of digitization, uploading to the cloud or sending by email, setting a directory for automatic saving, renaming files, search in an open document or in a catalog of saved “papers”.

The SwiftScan program is distributed according to a free model, while the user, while studying the main menu, may notice icons resembling a crown that mark some functions in the settings. The user gains access to these elements only after purchasing the PRO version, and if you often have to scan and send material to other people for work or school, then it will be advisable for you to fork out for the purchase of the full version of the tool. Commercial features include text recognition, working with different design colors, instant export, annotations, and so on. Moreover, you can sign up for a subscription for a certain time, for example, one month, or immediately pay for a personal license; the second option, of course, is more expensive, but in the end it is much more profitable. The most “greedy” ones will benefit from an alternative that includes displaying advertising, for viewing which, over time, you can unlock all the functionality completely free of charge.
