Limited Feature, Unusuable OCR Output

The two sample operations did not allow a fair evaluation of the app. I opted for the monthly sub, but I will cancel. It assembles, splits, reorganizes as advertised, but its limited feature set has me wondering how much of it is coded or if its just an assemblage of basic calls to the system software components: the OCR text output is worse than what you can copy from a screen image capture in the MacOS, the PDF editing is limited to rudimentary tools that look straight out of MS Draw '95—there is no adjustment for contrast, light/dark, skew. Skew! If your sheet feeder is anything like mine you're getting slightly slanted text. If your scanner did not auto correct, this app won't fix it. But that lack of text output formats is unforgivable. DOCX is all you get and that took two attempts to get a file that would open. The resulting text output was baffling: "maintained" became "inaintained." The algorithm is dumb, there's no error correction. Terrestrial -> Terrehtrial. disappointment -> dissappoiñment. I'll say. For some reason the app added a tilde to numerous lowercase "n"s. For accurate text output it would be faster to type it yourself. Maybe this app was someone's hard work? It feels like shareware, if you can remember that far back, and certainly not worth the asking price.

WHATS WITH POPUP & BLOCKING me from using tools After Years of ❤️ tuis app

App supposed to be free but every time I try to do something with my files there’s a pop-up demanding that I subscribe to pro version. Totally Deceitful! “Hostage-ransom -block-up stinks” MAKES APP USELESS. I’ve been using this free version for a few years and used to love it (as per my previous review). Now I retract it all - this is just plain wrong! Developer please stop blocking my ability to use free version- i click X to shut
pro-subscribe popup & it just relaunches popup to buy over & over. This is Just plain wrong. Developer u should be ashamed of yourself. This was always a free app, now you do an update and suddenly you’re holding all my documents and stuff hostage? I can no longer use your app without paying money. This is terrible, It’s one thing to ask to subscribe before someone first downloads an app but after years of using this app to suddenly block me from using it in order to convert me to a subscription stinks! Please STOP THIS REPEATING BLOCKUP trying to force me to subscribe to something I’ve been using for years & ALLOW ME TO USE APP AGAIN. Thanks
