About Scan Things

With Scan Things, you can extract objects, people, pets, artwork and just about anything else from any image, image URL, or PDF document. 

Scan Things can also capture books and documents with the original images intact and the text extracted and embedded. You can save your scan as a single- or multi-page PDF with all its text fully searchable and selectable.

You don't need an account to use Scan Things. You don't need internet access. Your scans never leave your iPhone or iPad as Scan Things does all of its processing on-device. Because your privacy is important (not to mention none of our business), we collect no data whatsoever and we don't use any third-party code. Your privacy is yours, and we think it should stay that way.

You can get Scan Things for a one-time purchase and share it with your family at no extra cost. No subscriptions. No adds. No shenanigans.

Underwhelming. Unprofessional. & Unacceptable.
so you say you scan things, didn’t you use-to call yourself Scan Thing ? Did you happen to scan my receipt? Because I’ve emailed Support. & I’ve already made multiple frivolous attempts to restore the In-App purchases… I’ve given you the document ID. The date and purchase confirmation code after going through the trouble to find the receipt from almost 2years ago. yet for some reason- before I can continue to use the application, and or what I’ve already Scanned into this Thing before I can file.. i’m prompted repeatedly incessantly and the failure to recognize my account is frustratingly consistent. The prompt demands only that I purchase something I’ve already purchased.. FOR THE RECORD. I didn’t mind purchasing when I did, I appreciated the lack of a subscription model and patronizing your developer account Was no problem. Am I under appreciated as a longtime customer? Yes. Despite that, I still don’t mind the fact that I paid, despite the plethora of enumerated scanning ‘OCR’ optical character recognition applications currently available. I thought the app was innovative, and I appreciated the clever approach. What does have me sidetracked - to the degree that I’ve spent the time in paragraphs for a review and feedback is Not getting what I’ve already paid for. I wouldn’t waste yours and I don’t appreciate you wasting mine if I hadn’t already tried to contact the developer about this. Four times without a response.- Unprofessional. Unacceptable.

Absolutely the Best!
This is one of those apps I have no idea how I managed without it! Having ALL the options for easily scanning and saving those scans in one place is reason enough for me to get it, but the one time (under $10!) cost for unlimited scans (no in-app purchases!), no account setup (which means no personal data collection!!), and NO ads makes this app a no brainer!! Definitely get this app; you’ll love it!!
