paperless

Scanner Pro Update

Earlier this fall, my favorite scanning app, Scanner Pro, came out with an update that can automatically categorize documents based on features it can identify across your various files.

One of the things that repels people from going paperless is that it often takes a lot of repetitive steps to manage files. Renaming, organizing in folders, tagging, etc...

Over the years, Scanner Pro has been aggressive about adding features to smartly take on some of this work through automation.

Scanner Pro can now automatically recognize your scans as sheet music, and label them as such.

One of my other favorite features is the ability to designate a specific folder inside of Google Drive or Dropbox to save scans into in one tap. This makes saving scans to a specific folder of sheet music in my Google Drive as easy as can be.
