I used the paid option. I was scanning in 200 hand written letters for archiving and sharing. while this did a great job. couldn't lock in my overall settings. continual scan required continuous adjustments for each batch. really annoying. for 5 buck to get the project done. I'm happy.

Thanks for the thoughtful review and for choosing SwiftScan for such an important archiving project. We’re glad the scanning quality worked well for your handwritten letters. We also appreciate the feedback about scan settings not staying locked between batches, and we’ll share it with the team for future improvements.

I had purchased a Scanbot VIP lifetime subscription and somehow now all basic features bought at that time are not available. These companies keep scamming users.

Hi SwiftScan team ! Your app is great but would like to request you some features. 1. "Must Have" :: There shall be some magic eraser for removing unwanted things on the document for eg may be fingers or ring clamps, etc 2. There shall be a way to turn off 'the recent document option' on the homepage, it makes it feel very cluttered and less minimalistic / clean look. 3. Your automatic filters do a great job but manual tuning controls are not that great .. contrast, colour & brightness.
