I dont scan stuff often but I used Lense. It was annoying before but it did its jobs: I can take pictures of my documents and it automatically cropped out and joined together as a pdf.

I need to scan something today and so try to use Lens. Holy shit it is soooo annoying now:

  • Must sign in to MS account

  • Must download an additional app: The MS 365 Copilot app. The app still has the tag (Beta) on the Play store fyi…

  • It is not easy to choose where you want to save the documents. Now every pdfs default to Documents/Office Lense. .Or maybe we can still choose. Idk i uninstalled the apps after scanning.

    Over on iOS, we can just do that in Notes (the Apple one). Check to see if your notes app has a similar feature.

    I think Google has an app for it as well.

        Interesting. I didn’t know — I actually use ScannerPro, which isn’t free (good developer, and Ukrainian though). I just hear a lot of people saying Notes does it.
