) will open in expanded view no command to collapse the view for easier scrolling to target a particular section. * Organization: the view area will list things alphabetically in thumbnail view, each alphabetical category (#, 1. * Performance: can rev up your CPU during indexing large folders (on my MBP 17" 2011 with 16GB RAM) I'm pretty good in keeping things organized in hierarchical folders. Overall, I like the look and feel of this (despite some UI quirks and some awkward uses of English), but not sure I really need the app (although: it is nice to have the option to access docs in iCloud in your iDocument). If you are after a similar app, there is also "Yep!" (which I also got through a MacUpdate promo).Īnyway, just thought I would share my experience. So the updated version works well for me. I was not able to do this as effectively in the previous version. With iDocument 2 I was instantly locate a document that I had been hunting around for a couple of months ago. As an academic, I have thousands upon thousands of documents. The interface is completely different - very clean. My experience is that it is indeed a very different version.

Was this for an iDocument 2 update to an iDocument 2 newer version? In my case, I upgraded from iDocument (guess you could call it iDocument 1) to iDocument 2. I read a comment that iDocument and the updated version is just a big-fix update you have to pay for. So, my experience is different to what some others have stated here.

I got a prompt response, a great upgrade price and instantly received the license and I am putting iDocument 2 to good use. Since I had bought iDocument in the past for a previous version, I sent the developer an email asking if there was upgrade pricing. I have no connection with the developer of iDocument 2 - just wanted to get that out of the way first. In other words, they need to offer a lot of extra features to justify their cost.Since I just left a comment while this app is an macUpdate Promo, I thought I would also post part and change parts of it to make it a review of my experience here where it is more permanent.

A reasonable price: Given that there are several very good free scanning apps, we cast a skeptical eye on apps that require a recurring subscription. Annotation and editing features: Once you have a nice, clean scan, you might want to mark it up-place some Xs so your client knows where to sign, for instance, or highlight text, add notes, or even put your own signature on a contract. At a bare minimum, we looked for a promise that apps won’t sell or share your data without consent. Attention to security: We were skeptical of apps that encourage you (or require you) to upload your scans to their own cloud servers for storage and OCR, as well as those that don’t provide clear security and privacy policies.
Diverse format options: You’ll probably end up scanning text documents and receipts most of the time, but a good scanning app should also be adept at capturing material from less-common sources such as whiteboards, book pages, newspaper and magazine articles, and business cards. If the app can automatically back up scans to cloud storage, all the better. Ample sharing options: A good scanning app provides a convenient way to share your scans and OCR results on all the channels you like to use-email, Dropbox, Google Drive, Slack, printers, faxes, and more. Some apps export raw text (either as a TXT file or copied to the clipboard), while others provide formatted text in RTF or DOC files. Accurate text recognition: The best scanning apps use optical character recognition (OCR) to locate text in an image and convert it to an editable document. Different apps provide different scan resolutions and different filters, some of which are better than others at smoothing out wrinkles, shadows, and other blemishes. Great image quality: Although the scan quality is partly dependent on the quality of your phone’s camera, it also has a lot to do with the app itself. We looked for apps with intuitive controls, a thoughtful layout, and helpful features such as automatic document recognition and capture. Ease of use: Above all else, scanning apps need to be easy to use, or else you won’t want anything to do with them.
