CamScanner – PDF Scanner App first became popular due to its user-friendliness and HD image conversions. As a mobile app, it allows you to turn your phone or tablet into an image scanner and turn pictures of physical documents into digital files for easier sharing online. Its basic functions include auto-trimming, various photo filters, OCR recognition, and PDF editing. There are some malicious reports about it but it’s fairly safe to use.

However, the image scanning function is only available on the mobile version. For the PC and web versions, you can do everything else except that—as the program doesn’t support webcams. Nevertheless, if you want to do some editing while on your desktop, you can simply import files from your mobile device or access your PC’s pictures directly through the software. It’s mostly for managing your documents, after all.

The PC version’s interface is easy to navigate. You have a Home tab that’s similar to a browser tab. Here, you can access recent files, your documents, tools, and the trash bin. You can simply upload a file and use any of the tools. When you upload a file and open it, it will create a new tab at the top so you can simultaneously work on multiple files.
