Using the app is bliss. At first sight youʼll be given the option to use an existing image from your camera roll, or to take a new picture.
Here, Iʼve taken a picture of some music I plan to study on the go. Notice the blue grid covering the image. This is a fantastic interface that can be manipulated to select what area of the image you want to process. In most cases you can let JotNot do all the work as it automatically recognizes the edges of the document youʼve scanned, and it even takes a stab at working out whether itʼs a letter, an A4 sheet and so on. Image processing by default makes the document black and white, as youʼll see below. Itʼs a truly fantastic enhancement. You can play around with settings or select presets such as Receipts, ʻColor Docs or Whiteboardsʼ before processing.
Youʼll quickly become accustomed to three streamlined views, which are the Document list view, Page list view and Photo List view. These views allow for great organization of your documents.
