Powerful tools to make better PDFs – Preview your scan, rotate pages, crop images, drag and drop to reorder, and simple delete before upload.
Organizational tools – Name your document prior to upload and pick cloud destination folders/notebooks and apply labels and tags. Your scanner’s software can’t do this!
Use the power of the cloud – If you cloud service has folder or notebooks then ScanDrop is the easiest way to get paper scanned into the right destination. Using Tags in Evernote, Labels in OfficeDrop’s cloud filing system or labels in your gmail account? ScanDrop looks them up so you can add them at the time of scanning.
Evernote, OfficeDrop & Google Docs users can use the OCR (optical character recognition) that comes with your online account to make you files searchable.
Scan to Email – Scan and attach a PDF to your Gmail or local desktop email program. Look up email addresses in your Gmail’s contacts. Add subject lines and messages to your emails at the time of scan. Self-scan into Gmail to use Gmail as a document management service, and add labels to the emails you send to yourself.
New! From within the ScanDrop app you can create a free OfficeDrop cloud filing system. Store you paper online with OfficeDrop. This new free account option comes with search, storage, OCR, online access and more! No credit card required, no trial period.
** Note that Evernote provides OCR for Evernote Premium users; free Evernote users may not get text searchable PDFs in their Evernote account **
** Important Limitations on Google Docs OCR: If you are using ScanDrop to upload to Google Docs and select the Google OCR option note that Google is supplying this OCR and it has certain limitations. Google limits the amount of data that it will accept during the OCR process and rejects documents that are more than 2 mb in size if you have opted for Google’s OCR – this is usually one or two pages. Google’s OCR happens at the time of upload and will increase the amount of time required to upload the document. If you have problems with Google’s OCR please contact Google’s customer service, not OfficeDrop’s as OfficeDrop has no control over the quality, consistency, latency or reliability of Google’s service.**
**OCR Note: Dropbox, you local disk, gmail and desktop mail do not provide OCR.**
**Please try ScanDrop Lite before purchasing ScanDrop - it's a free way to test to see if your scanner is supported. No refunds will be given if you haven't tested first with ScanDrop Lite.**

Customer Reviews
Waste of time
I installed this app after trying free version. Free version worked, paid for version didn't. Tried to get support. Got no help whatsoever. Don't waste your money. I did.
STOP! Do Not Buy This App
After checking to make sure that my scanner was supported, I purchased this app in the hopes that it would speed up my workflow. Not only did it not speed up my workflow but it didn't even work at all! I contacted customer support to let them know it wasn't working with my scanner, even though their site says it does. After waiting four days to get a response, this was their "very helpful" non-solution to the problem: "Please update to the latest driver for your scanner available on your scanner manufacturer site." Uh, thank you very much Apoorv Thakur (the name of the customer service rep). What really blew my stack was that the status of my problem "has been deemed solved." NOT HARDLY! Now, I can't even get back to the original support ticket to dispute the "resolved" status. It is a real shame that App Store doesn't have a refund policy for such sellers as this. The app doesn't work at all. I might as well have tost a twenty out the window. At least watching the twenty blow in the wind might have been a little entertaining. This just makes me mad!
The perfect utility
This app not only makes scanning easy, but it also makes it simple to share with my Evernote account. This app is excellent!
