Always works well
Have been using it for years. Other products seem to have come and gone but the free version of this app seems to do everything perfectly fine. It even seems to make the camera on my phone seem better and steadier than it actually is. Highly recommend

Genius Scan
Great app clear copy

Here’s an idea
Very very clear docs can be scanned. Be nice to be able to email with my default email app without being asked.
2026-03-04
Export Receipt’s
I have a full paid version of this app and can’t download or Export my receipts via email.
Can you please help me.
2026-02-10
A must have!
A handy little tool for quick pdf files on the go. And free! Hover over a piece of paper and the app converts to pdf. Effortless Multiple pages. Automatically saves and the pdf can be immediately forwarded.
2026-02-10
Been using it for years

Theft
Purchased this App years ago and I’ve now been informed I cannot use it without a yearly subscription.
2026-01-15
Love it
Always being asked to scan files across and I think I don’t have a scanner and then I remember this little gem of an app.

This is my go to work and personal life.

It works perfectly!
I just downloaded Genius Scan a few days ago after reading reviews. It worked so well I am keeping it as a paid for app indefinitely. It is easy to use, intuitive, and takes great scans, correcting for distortion due to perspective, which is so great, and my main essential need when using my iPhone as a scanner. Those are the features that won me over, plus the scans all look perfectly presented and toned. And if you “add documents” to your first scan you can just keep on scanning more and more pages very quickly and effortlessly, for each document, and then, just as easily, send it somewhere or save it with “Export”. And the documents are saved locally, and if you pay for the app you get free cloud storage included for offloading all of your documents safely to the cloud. Amazing!!!
2025-11-24
One the best application around
Highly recommend.
2025-11-20
Best mobile scanner ever

Terrible app. Will not send documents. Multiple attempts. Still nothing. Don’t bother!
2025-10-25
Best on Ground
I’ve tried them all. Genius Scan has all the features I need, but more importantly quick & easy to navigate.
2025-10-23

Not as good since last update where limited scans introduced

Thumbs up
Very useful app
2025-09-08
GeniusScan App is way better than a large desktop scanner!
GeniusScan is brilliant! My charity could not get by without it after our big desktop scanner died but actually with all the volunteers having this app on their mobiles, we’re better off, especially since COVID means so much working from home.
2025-08-24
Easy quick scanning
Intuitive & quick scanning of documents straight from phone
2025-08-04
I’m paying and I get nothing
Today I got notification that I paid a renewal on this app, when I attempted to open the app it said there was no account with my email address. So I pay for nothing. I’m very unhappy with this failure to provide me any service or any way to communicate other than leaving this review.
2025-07-28
Ultra Scanner is good- never buy lifetime license (I own ScannerPro) as these guys will rip you off!
Don’t buy any lifetime membership is the lesson learned. I paid (years earlier) for lifetime access to Plus. Plus is not the modern, updated app though- Ultra is. I asked support for discounted upgrade from Plus to Ultra - 200 words to tell me “no, too bad”.
Easy to see where a company’s values lies when they sell you unsupported software and gaslight you into thinking you chose that option.
The app is great- so glad to have to pay for this and have a useless lifetime version of pro.
2025-07-28

Great app, very handy

Great app!
Love this app, I have had it for quite a long time and have tried others but nothing is as good as this
2025-07-08
Best app ever used
This must be the best and most useful app I have ever used.
2025-07-03
Karl Oliver
Ease of use! I highly recommend recommend to anyone that will listen
2025-06-27
Good PDF scanner
A good PDF scanner that’s free, doesn’t imprint a watermark, and allows you to share it easily enough
2025-06-26
It is Henius
Best scan app I have used to scan clearly and email. So good
2025-06-20
Scanner doesn’t work
Updated app now scanner doesn’t work
2025-06-12
Clear & fast scanning
Pretty impressed! Much faster & clearer image than my Canon printer, & also amalgamates the pages together which my printer has decided not to do anymore.
2025-06-12
Brilliant
Couldn't manage without this app, been using it for three years now,I have to send out a weekly invoice and it has never let me down, highly recommended
2025-06-10
I can't believe you did that
I lost masses of critical documents because this app thought it should make lots of money
2025-05-28
Great when it works
When scanning driver’s licences or ID cards it sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t. When scanning documents it is very good though. I’m on the free version. I wouldn’t pay for it given the way it glitches when scanning driver’s licences since that it what I mainly need it for.
2025-04-07
Almost perfect
This is by far the best PDF scanner on the App Store though I wish it had a feature where it would auto align text so everything is inline and not crooked one way or the other, we are taking pictures with our phones so it’s never going to be as good as a physical scanner but a feature that scans all the details of the page and then maybe recreates them because sometimes the printer is low on ink, maybe it’s half printing characters so if it can recreate and fill in the missing gaps and align them that would be HUGE!
Still, as it stands this app does it better than anything else.
2025-02-18
Glitchy
A family member recommended this app to me a few years back and it used to be really good. I pay more for this app now (had to purchase and subscribe) and experience is growing more negative unfortunately. Still a handy app but it glitches a lot, when I try to view scanned documents they take forever (it’s only 30 pages) to load or won’t load at all, and some of the pages get mixed up as your looking through. For example I scroll through to page 10 and it shows page 2 again, so I try to fix it by swiping through a few pages and going back and it fixes itself sometimes but not always. Pretty annoying.
2024-06-11
Best Editing app
As a software developer this is one of the best and most simple editing App.
Pros
- it lets you scan documents and save where ever you want.
-it doesn’t bother you with a Purchase Wall and have locked features.
-it lets you delete pages and merge documents with ease. Trust me i have tried it on a Mac pdf viewer, windows, word, google docs, and even adobe acrobat and i couldn’t find a way to delete pages.
- The app is fast, snappy and has no bugs.
Cons
-There are no cons.
It’s everything you need on a phone to edit, scan, view and save documents. Probably the best app on AppStore.

Genius scan ( Rompa's review)
Been using Genius Scan plus for over 10 years now Once again great app I have tried others for work reasons and all sucked this one I keep great work guys One app every one should have and I don't mean the free one buy the full version it is worth every penny don't look else were no need this is the app you need password protected and very easy to use
2023-11-07
The standard
I’ve lost track of how long I’ve used this app. Seven years? Anyhow, it’s extremely convenient, and I’m glad I bought it all those years ago. I don’t use it loads, but it makes things easy in the fly.
2023-08-28
Genius scan
It is an amazing app for scanning documents , notes e.t.c.
It makes whatever you are scanning have no shadow.
This is a flabbergasting app and must be recommended to everyone.
This could be a very helpful convenience in life when you want your document or note to look good
2023-04-27
Is this no longer free???
Just wondering if this app is no longer free for some options. I use this app a lot and send documents directly to Xero via “other apps” but now when I try, it goes through the options and then freezes instead of saying saved. I have tried updating the app. I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Still the same. I love this app but don’t have the option to pay for it.
2023-03-29
The ultimate scan app
I’ve been using this app for more than 7 years. It’s an excellent app easy to use. Each upgrade has improved performance and kept the app user friendly. The latest upgrade adding folders to organise scanned documents is great. I started with the free version and have since paid for the app. Happy with the purchase. Happy with the results. I don’t use my old printer scanner now. I recommend Genius Scan.
2023-01-03
Just can’t get it right
I start by saying the scan option is fine but whatever you do don’t pay for anything, you will be as frustrated as I am about a simple task that is obviously impossible to achieve.
I have paid for a full year with genius scan so I can access and organise my data on different devices. That doesn’t seem to be a thing. I have contacted the firm many times and not once have I had a satisfactory response. When I try to set it up on different devices it bans me from using the log in details and I’m finding it just a bit of a waste of time and money.
2022-12-04
Easy to use
The app detects the scanning document automatically, so you can just aim and scan, no need to hold long. Documents can be saved in Files (Apple) or your personal drive with your chosen names, from there you can just attach in your email.
2022-12-02
Great - but SUBS…. No thanks
The program is good, works flawlessly and produces great PDF scans. I have tried several similar apps and this is the best, particularly as its free. The major drawback is the SUBSCRIBER account. If this was a once off purchase of $5, maybe even $10, I’d pay for full features.
2022-10-26
Finally, a perfect scanning app
I’ve tried many and Genius Scan is the first app to live up to its name. It’s got all the functions I need in the basic version and the subscription options are not outrageous. Highly recommended!
2022-10-20
Fabulous App
I find this app brilliant. Over the years scanning has been an issue due to having to fire up computers etc. This app takes only seconds to scan and to add to an email address and it’s gone within minutes. Highly recommend, even those who are not text savvy (which I’m average andAble to teach my partner how to use) can use this app. 👍🏻👍🏻
2022-10-15
Best in this space
I have used many document scanning applications over the years, including the in-build Apple one and this word, without a doubt, has to be the best app on the market. I would highly recommend anyone looking for this sort of application.
2022-09-27
Genius Scan
This App helped a lot two years ago when I got held in Melbourne due to quarantine procedures. I had to submit a lot of documentation to Western Australian border control from the quarantine centre in Melbourne. But we were not allowed to come out of the room even to go to the reception of Crown hotel. This is where another friend of mine introduced this fantastic app, “Genius Scan” which helped me do everything I had to do without any hassle, just like having a scanner at my office or home. I haven't used my desktop scanner since I have the facility on my phone.
2022-09-08
Best scanning app ever
I’ve been using this app for a few years. Every time it’s updated it improves. It’s a fantastic app that gives you clear images of documents both singly and as a batch. Plus it’s really simple to share docs and save them.
2022-05-27
Clean B&W edit after scan
I use this app to scan all of my receipts for tax purposes. It’s user interface is very easy to learn and it’s Auto Crop + Auto B&W edit after scan allows me to breeze through this recording process. The app is a huge time saver!
2022-03-09
Just Works (now v2, 1 yr later)
Still amazing. Not only are the features vy good (elegant OCR, easy tags, gd optimising of images) but also the organisational structure vy good (easy of uploading to gDrive, documenting of progress eg when last uploaded, ease of managing and moving stored scans). There are many competitors and there will always be one or two things they do even better, but none seem to maintain the elegance and self-evident human interface and workflow design that makes this excellent — for me, an overall winner. [Pls dont tell them, it will go to theirs heads…]
|| (orig. comment, in case v1 review gets deleted)
Works for me... simple, straight -forward, elegant interface (except for the 'Current...' phrasing during saving, which isn't clear). Very happy with it. Barns from oz || PS and the OCR is vy good, use it a lot.
2022-02-23
Wonderful time saver
What a great app! I've been using it for few yeas now and the new batch scan is brilliant. Our office flatbed scanner stopped working last week and this app has been used instead without any lost productivity.
2022-02-18
Easy to use
I have used this app many times and it is easy to use on my phone. The upload to my network file system is also easy to do. Enjoy using it whenever I need to do a scan.
Thank you for developing this app.
2022-01-15
Exactly what I needed to scan and send
I’ve been notorious for not scanning my receipts and this program just makes it dead easy. I prefer it to Xeros own product because this one doesn’t ask me any questions at the time of capture- that’s the bookkeepers problem
2021-12-19
I love this App! It’s the best app for scanning on your phone…
This App is the best for capturing, cropping pictures, notes etc. It is super for quickly putting all sorts of things into Evernote - although is quickest using email as Evernote direct is a bit slow. It even enhances images automatically. It would be good to add several images/pages to one email/note.
2021-09-20
It’s my favourite app
If I could choose just one app it would be Genius Scan. It has made life so simple and I love it, no more trying to find a scanner and always being able to share info regardless of where I am.
Thank you for the amazing app, it is much appreciated.
2021-07-17
Impressive, easy to use
Our standalone scanner broke and I needed to scan some documents. I tried one app which was awful but then tried Genius Scan.
Genius Scan worked immediately and quickly, intuitive interface, easy to use, great quality scans, all done and dusted no fuss.
Very happy.
2021-05-08
A god saver
This is the only scanning app that I have found that scans a quality image that can be save to camera roll (Apple). I havethousands of pre digital prints that I am scan into a digital library much more efficiently than using the printer scanner.
2020-12-10
Love this app
Use it a great deal to capture PDFs. Very intuitive workflow. Much recommended.
Only things stopping 5 star rating: —
** occasionally the paper size sensing is buggy and senses the size correctly but it then “flickers” so you can’t grab the page. Works best on a very dark background
** sometimes confusingly makes similar pages in one document with different colour settings I.e one colour page in the middle of a lot of black and white. Can be manually fixed but a bit annoying.
2020-11-10
On the road
This scanner is fantastic, I’m sales rep on the road so I am always scanning orders into the the office. I always use a black back to make it easier for the scanner and I is 101 percent faultless, I will sometime send five A4 pages of orders and I simply change the page and the scanner copies for me, yes automatically
2020-09-26
Genius scan free ver
Very happy with the free version of this app. Thrown away my scanner.
It’s much better than the scanner... quicker to scan, immediately resizes. Edit much quicker than importing to a pc. Filters are good but could improve if you could select from end live / scan screen.
2020-08-23
Great app!
I use this app every day for work & it’s great, the only thing that would make it better for me personally would be if it had the ability to create folders so I could store different document types in different places as now even with tags it’s difficult to find what I’m looking for sometimes!
2020-07-20
Such a great app for scanning/ PDF conversion
Love this app. Had it for years now and it keeps getting better with updates. Does everything you need including email, text message or saving document to other apps. The magic photo feature where it focuses and takes a photo of each document with out the press of a button is priceless. It also automatically crops the picture to the size of the page instantly. Very handy for a batch of pages as you can just let the phone do the work as you take a photo of one page and flip to the next and before you know it you have scanned 20 pages. Also handy editing features after you’ve taken the picture so you can filter the pictures to get the clearest view and the pages, recrop if needed or even rotate to what ever required direction. Best app!! Will never use a scanner again. Also has a print function 👍🏼👍🏼👌🏼
2020-06-24
Love it!!
Genius scan has made a huge difference to mein personal and work connects. Scanning recipes for tax time, for work reimbursement, for my records. Scanning important documents, warrantees, and information sheets on the run. It’s hugely minimised the mess in tray and thus at least my perception of time doing admin talks. I only recently upgraded to premium and can’t believe I didn’t earlier! I just drop them all into the appropriate Dropbox file and never think of B them again until our unless i need them!! And v I’ve set up a back up folder they automatically go into which is great for when I forget where I filled them.
Thanks heaps!!
2020-06-05
Great - needs the following feature to improve overall usability.
I’ve been searching for an app to add an ocr text layer to my PDF files. This app is brilliant for this, highly recommend. However, a message to the developer, I doesn’t recognise handwritten text, which is ok, however if you could allow the user to edit what the ocr extracts so we can correct it. You could allow this by allowing the user to type on the text button modal or allow selection on the file overview text which would then prompt to change that word.
If the developer could respond to the feature request, appreciated.
2020-05-22
Too good to be true
Downloaded this app by mistake after a recommendation for another. Very glad! Works like a charm and features make it easy to crop and improve image. Saves where I want it and works in well with One drive. I’m impressed. Only wish the tags were searchable on the file created other than just in genius scan.
2020-04-07
Easily the best mobile scanner available.
I’ve tried three different apps, and this is by far the most accurate and the most feature packed. Also commendable that the developers haven’t been stingy on the features in the free version.
An fantastic productivity tool.
2020-04-05
Easy user friendly app for PDF creating
The free version does everything you need to make PDF’s and send to whom ever you need, easy to use. The paid version give you more options to allow autonomous help for someone who needs to use it a lot. I only use it a little so the free version is plenty, but great app, well done.

Can’t do without this app
I use this app everyday to scan receipts from payments made with credit cards to enable easy cross checking with credit card statements One extra feature I would like to see added is the ability to create & insert a watermark into scanned PDF images

Easy to use
Really pleased I downloaded this app to scan documents and receipts. I initially tried a few other scanning apps but tis one by Genius Scan is far superior to the others. Genius Scan is easy to use and quick.

Amazing!!!
I’ve been using this for a year or more and it’s pretty much the most flexible, reliable, easy-to-use and robust app I’ve ever used. My desktop scanner just died and I will not be replacing it as this app does more than the old scanner and is way more reliable. Fantastic!

Best on the market!
After trying many many scan apps this one is the best of them all! I use it all the time as I don’t have a computer or laptop so this makes sending documents etc quick and easy! every update there is always something new to make scanning documents or letter so much more smoother. I’ve never had any problems scanning anything and enjoy the many features this app provides

Super Scanner
Easy to use - save to cloud scanner - gives instant access to all my documents. Love it! Latest version has even faster features. Gets better and better each upgrade. Auto crop is excellent.

SIMPLY BRILLIANT for scanning
I use this app for taking photos of documents and combining them to create multi-page PDFs. It’s features are flawless and brilliant. It allows you to use your camera to scan a physical document by framing the border of the page and producing it as a rectangular image without a background. This single feature is done better than any other app I’ve seen and I’ve tried a few.
There are also options to improve the image with auto-enhance or making it black & white, colour or photo. You can then combine multiple scans into one PDF document. You can export the PDF to other apps, email, messages, files or keep it saved in the app for later. You can also export images as jpegs to your photo roll.
Simply brilliant app functionality! Thank you!

Very Unusual For This App 2 Not Work!!
Been using the + version for years, it’s saved me from getting pulled over by cops and being able to show receipts, lol..
Saved me carrying paper of that type around, stores nicely in files and books apps..
But... after this last update, it will not scan any document on it’s on, you have to manually click it, scan and edit it..
Deleted and re-installed, phone off and on etc, still the same..
Come on Devs please give it some love. I need it..
I’ll give you the 5Stars back soon as it works again.. Using iPhone XS Max

Terrible upgrade
I loved the clarity and simplicity of scanning with the previous version of Genius Scan. Unfortunately with the upgrade every single attempt I’ve made to scan a simple document has produced an unusable result.
I’ve now had to get another scanning app.
I’m very dissappointed.

Great for teachers!
I rely on this app to save student work. It’s so easy to use and perfect for when I have limited time (and don’t want to stand by a scanner waiting for ages). However, I wonder if there’s a way to use the air-drop option to share the file directly to my laptop?

In app upgrade doesn’t work!
If you want to use the premium features (the only reason you would really use this app) Do NOT download this version!!!
It may work initially but If you ever have to reinstall or you upgrade your phone etc -you will NEVER get the upgrade back again. There is a “restore purchase” button but this never works. Raising the issue with support gets no where as they blame Apple and Apple support blame the app => time and money down the drain.
My advice ... only try this free version out, if you decide you like the app - DELETE it and buy the plus version instead (though I can only assume that works as I’ve switched to an alternate app rather than wasting more money here).

Works really well
Works well with new photos and photos from library. Great flexibility when it comes to cropping, and easy to use interface. Useful options for sharing over Wifi or emailing PDF. Also lets you create a multi-paged document!
