Bonnie Cha for Re/codeīut if you’re looking for a quick and easy solution to digitize paperwork, I’d recommend Scannable. So if you need these things, this isn’t the app for you. There are no document collaboration tools, and you can’t add notes to scanned business cards from within the app. The company says it wants to work on perfecting the iOS app before moving onto other platforms, like Android. First, it’s only available for iOS 8 devices.

In my testing, I found this to be true, and with my iPhone 5, I managed to scan several dozen business cards, a handful of documents and about 20 receipts.īut the app may be a little too limited for some people. So what makes Scannable better than the dozens of other document-scanning apps out there, like CamScanner, Doc Scan and Jot Not? Evernote says the difference between Scannable and the competition is its speed and simplicity. Using your smartphone’s camera, Scannable captures and digitizes various paper documents, which you can then save to a specified location or share with others. Understanding that this is a pain point for many people, Evernote has launched a new app called Scannable.
