Smart Document Scanner turns mobile device into a pro scanner

There are a lot of document scanner apps available for mobile but only a few are highly recommended by experts in the tech industry. The CES Mobile recently awarded the Smart Document Scanner developed by Softxpert Inc. as part of the top 5 apps by SAP's pick and the People's Choice. The app turns your tablet or smartphone into a portable scanner. Not that desktop scanners are considered passé but a mobile scanner is much more convenient today.

The Smart Document Scanner can do everything a regular scanner can do. It can scan any document but it can automatically enhance and convert those files into different formats from PDF to OCR, convert jpeg file to PDF, add annotations, sync, and file important documents like contracts, bank statements, invoices, prescriptions.

The document scanner app makes use of the in-app camera for scanning. It also comes with an OCR scanner so it can do OCR scans and recognize text to make the document searchable. Its account recognition of receipts can help calculate expenses. All the scanned images can be exported to an SD card automatically. When it comes to image enhancement, the document scanner app can detect scan edges, do auto-crop, and enhance images.

Smart Document Scanner free for download but a premium version is available for those who need more professional scanning features at only $4.49. Mobile scanning is here so why not try it out for yourself. It's more convenient because you can just snap a photo of a document and save the image.
