Scannable will always launch into the camera, because that’s the main part of the app - it’s a scanner. But in reality, it’s so simple that this isn’t needed - you’ll get the hang of it right away. When you launch the app for the first time, you’ll get a brief little introduction video that shows you the basics for using the app. The app also works quickly, unlike some other scanners I’ve tried in the past. The interface for Scannable is minimal and clean, which is fantastic.

Now that it’s available, it’s becoming one of my favorite scanning apps for Evernote. When I heard that they were coming out with a new app, I was pretty excited to get my hands on it. To me, Evernote is my “digital brain dump,” and I’m sure that it is that for many of you as well. I even have some IFTTT recipes that automate getting links or articles into Evernote for me.

Instead, I use Evernote for everything except writing - it’s the place I dump document scans, PDFs, Web clippings, links, and anything else I happen to come across that I want to save. I’ve been an Evernote user for a few years now, but it’s not an app that I like to write in. It’s similar to other apps out there, such as my other favorite, Scanbot. If you are looking to move into a paper-free life, and use Evernote to file everything away, then Evernote Scannable is an app you must check out. Evernote Scannable (Free) by Evernote is the latest app from the folks behind all-in-one note-taking and document app, Evernote, and it’s one of the best ways to scan any paper that comes your way.
