The downloadable app helps you make sense of your documents—simply scan them via your smartphone camera and create a digital bank of information. Whether it’s receipts, contracts or business cards, you’ll never mislay that important document again.
Scan a business card and the app will save it as a contact in your phone and pull-in extra data from LinkedIn.
