Microsoft Lens: PDF Scanner

App seems broken on iPhone 15pro, every capture is rainbow colored and blurry.

Cam Scanner was one of the first out but they want you to put the scans in their online database. Lens has the ability to put your scans almost anywhere. My biggest complaint is that on my iPhone 14 Pro, (I think all the Pro versions) It doesn’t focus correctly on small scans like business cards or receipts if you get close enough to fill the screen. You are left with three choices. Blurry image, lower resolution image because you need to pull back and not fill the screen, or take a picture with the regular iPhone camera and import it to crop and set the appropriate filters. I have chosen the latter, I’m reminded what a pain it is every time I use it. I love the fact that that you can store the images, particularly in OneDrive, which I believe is truly the best cloud storage. The problem is that even if you have one drive loaded on your phone and are fully logged in, you are required to log in again with your full password. It doesn’t remember the last 100 times you used it with the same OneDrive and the same password.😖 Again, a real pain. Otherwise the quality, functionality and ease of use are good. I was hoping Microsoft would fix the above mentioned issues, but so far no…. I’m hoping for a fix sooner verses later. Updated. I now have an iPhone 16 Pro and no changes have been made. Focus for small documents like business cards is unacceptable. In fact you need to take the picture with the iPhone camera app, then import it. The OneDrive interface is also unchanged if not gotten worse. You are required to put in your full account information despite having the OneDrive app open and logged in. Once you get finally log in, there is no option for where to put the document. It never remembers your credentials!!! This level of OneDrive incompetency is considerably lower than other third party apps accessing OneDrive. The only solution is to add the document directly through the OneDrive, but then you have focusing issues again. Microsoft, you can do better!!!!!

One drive keep signing out.. need to login every single time.. please fix this issue

good app but they make it close to impossible to save a pdf into your icloud files folder

I used it for a few months but it was to problematic to use at work

I was looking for a replacement to Scannable with has direct Intergration to OneDrive. This application is missing several key features that I feel are table stakes for scanning applications : automated capture, automatic enhancement, the ability for the app to stay logged into OneDrive between scans, the ability to selected a destination folder in one drive. The last two are deal breakers. Having to login and MFA each time I use the application was too much of a detractor alone with all the scans being lumped together with my photos.

Messes up the second page by rotating and cutting it off, garbage app

Free and easy to use.

Fast, easy, best way get a poster etc. into iOS.

I spend far too many hours with MS products trying to get them to work. Unfortunately I’m still a big excel, word etc user otherwise in gone.
