The best scanning apps for Android and iPhone - CNET
Never bother with a scanner again. Thanks to high-quality cameras on today's top smartphones and nifty behind-the-scenes tech, scanning a document or photo with great results is as easy as opening an app and snapping a picture. Here are CNET's top picks for the best apps to turn your phone into a scanner. Best scanning app for iOS: Evernote Scannable Evernote, the popular note-taking service, has built a fantastic free scanning app called Scannable. It's useful for scanning receipts, business cards and in particular, printed documents. That's because the app uses optical character recognition (OCR), which can detect the letters and numbers on whatever you scan so that you can search for words or phrases within the scanned digital document. What makes Scannable so great is that it's foolproof to use. It then quickly edits the scan to improve the contrast and brightness to make it as clear and readable as possible. Best scanning app for Android: CamScanner Honorable mentions
