"It’s like carrying a copy machine in your pocket"

"Unbelievably sharp. The best app I’ve tried... The scan accuracy of SureScan mode is brilliant"
>> AppBank review (04/2010).

Now you can try out our free Lite version of TurboScan in the App Store!

TurboScan uses advanced document enhancement algorithms to eliminate uneven lighting and shadows and vastly improve contrast. The result is the clearest and most readable scans possible from the iPhone's camera. Not only do you get scans with fax-machine quality; TurboScan is also the fastest and smartest iPhone app of its kind. It uses sophisticated algorithms for automatic document edge detection, and all processing takes less than four seconds.

In addition, only TurboScan offers SureScan, our proprietary scanning mode that delivers sharper images with less jitter or smear. SureScan requires taking three pictures of the same document with the iPhone camera. Then, using our advanced algorithm, TurboScan uses the best available image data to provide you with the clearest scan of your document. SureScan mode is especially useful in lower-light conditions.

TurboScan's unique "Email to myself" feature lets you send documents to a predefined address, or even upload them to an online storage service like Evernote or Box.net, with a single tap. Uploading documents to online services via email is instant, secure, and can be done even if you're temporarily off line. Refer to app help for details.

All processing happens on your iPhone, and the confidentiality of your data is never compromised.

TIPS ON SCANNING
• Make sure your document is flat and well lit.
• Note that if your iPhone model is 3G or earlier, you must hold it at least 10-12 inches away from the document to avoid out-of-focus scans.
• Use a darker background for your documents for best edge detecting.


★ NOTE:
