The final step, if you’ve got no other pages to scan, is to tap ‘Done’ and save your scan. Tap the shutter button to take a photo of the page, and Prizmo opens a preview of the image where you can make adjustments to the page detection and rotate the image. When you point an iOS device’s camera at a page, Prizmo detects its edges, highlighting the entire sheet in blue. Prizmo, which has been around longer than Go, can convert document images to text too, but it’s also a full-featured scanning app.Ĭreaceed has been refining the scanning process for years, and with version 5 of Prizmo, it has reduced scanning to just three steps.
Prizmo Go, which we’ve covered before, quickly captures text from images of documents that you can use in other apps. There are lots of terrific apps on iOS to capture and organize scans, but Prizmo by Creaceed, which I’ve been testing for the past week, has quickly become one of my favorites, distinguishing itself with its ease of capture and terrific OCR functionality.Ĭreaceed makes two similarly-named apps that share some common features. Important bits of paper still come into my life now and then, but I’ve found that an iOS scanning app is more convenient for the volume of scanning I do now. If I need to look at an old credit card statement or bill, I can log into those accounts to find the information I need, so I tossed my scanner in a drawer. However, I realized recently that not only do I rarely need to refer back to those scanned documents, but most are already available in electronic form online. I’d OCR the scans, so they would be text searchable, and I used Hazel rules to organize them in folders automatically. I used to scan paper documents and store them on my Mac. I own a ScanSnap S1300i scanner, but I’m not sure why anymore.
