Ratings and Reviews
Fantastic scanning App - excellent value!
Superb app - I am so pleased to have such a comprehensive and well designed method for recording all our old photographs - some are well over a hundred years old, and the results are fabulous! We have about three thousand pics to scan, and I’m well into doing the lot in record time! I’ve also been able to scan around five hundred half pages of an old school magazine! The whole lot would have been lost if we hadn’t bitten the bullet, and scanning with Pic Scanner Gold was a doddle! As a final plus, the Help Desk has been incredibly quick and their answers very helpful and comprehensive - all within twenty-four hours too! I cannot recommend this app highly enough!
Developer Response ,
We are delighted that you are enjoying preserving your precious photo collection with our app. You are putting a lot of time and effort into it, so please do ensure that you back-up your work regularly, in more than one place.
Great photo scanning app - with no monthly contract!
After doing some research I decided I wanted a photo scanning app without a monthly contract. I also wanted to edit my photos, and upload them onto my iPhone and Dropbox. I came accross Pic Scanner Gold that seemed to do all that, so I bought it 5 days ago.
They app is simple to use. I had a problem and emailed my question on Sunday evening. The Helpdesk responded at 8:03am on Monday (which was brilliant) giving me a simple workaround solution and explaining that the a bug-fix was being done shortly.
So far I have only scanned some 70 photos, but am finding the app fast and easy to use. I am exporting them to iPhone Photos and sharing them with my family via Messenger. It’s great to suddenly start seeing old photos again and my family and I are really enjoying them.
Great app at a reasonable price with no ongoing charge. I would definitely recommend it. 😀
Would highly recommend
I was in a major rush to produce a family slideshow for my Father’s 80th.
I ventured into my parent’s attic to retrieve the dusty old boxes of photos.
I was pleased to have quickly just pitched for this App to get started scanning as their support has been hugely helpful.......IMMEDIATE response when I needed it.......as with lots of Apps.....it is the ‘user’ that is often the problem!
So pick this product if you need a little hand-holding to get started and then you too will get the bug to invest time scanning years worth of valuable memories!
Developer Response ,
Thank you, and glad we could help. Best wishes for your father's special day; hope you made use of the birthday greeting cards included in the app!
