We just got info that The Wall Street Journal is writing that DocScanner is still on sale for $0.99 – so we now corrected the price back to $0.99. That is the power of media;)

Thanks Wall Street Journal for writing about us and Kevin + others for pointing out our wrong pricing. It might take an hour before the right price shows on iTunes, on Android Market it is already effective.

Android camera issues

Jussi — Tue, 19 Oct 2010 10:30:47 +0000

Some reports have been issued concerning the image quality with various Android mobile phones.
The problem is that we cannot test each Android mobile phone model. There are some native camera applications that doesn’t follow android platform standards.

If the image resolution is always obviously lower compared to the images taken with the camera app or you get no image at all, you’re probably experiencing this issue.
The current solution is to use the phones camera app to take the pictures and scan them later from the DocScanner’s gallery.

We’re working on getting a better solution to fix the problem, but for now we can only advise to pass the issue as mentioned.

On this video you’ll see a short demo of the use of DocScanner on Android Nexus One.
The version we initially launced had some critical bugs that have been fixed for a while now. The current version has got an integration to Google Docs as well.

We get tons of questons of why DocScanner for Android isn’t available in the Android Market. The problem is, that the Android market doesn’t offer paid applications to every country. Here’s a list of countries where you can buy DocScanner:

Australia
Austria
Canada
France
Germany
Italy
Japan
Netherlands
New Zealand
Spain
Switzerland
United Kingdom
United States

List referer, Anroid market

If Google doesn’t make anything to fix this, soon we’ll start to offer DocScanner for Android in 3rd party app stores.

P.S. There’s an update coming soon, with the Evernote integration and other cool stuff. Thank for staying tuned!

DocScanner for Android 1.50 with Google Docs integration is out

Tuomas Rasila — Fri, 04 Jun 2010 12:37:05 +0000

Few minutes ago we released new Android version of DocScanner (1.50) This new version adds Google Docs integration. Now you can send documents directly to Google Docs.

Google Docs is a free, Web-based word processor, spreadsheet, presentation, form, and data storage service offered by Google. It allows users to create and edit documents online while collaborating in real-time with other users. Google Docs combines the features of Writely and Spreadsheets with a presentation program incorporating technology designed by Tonic Systems. Data storage of any files up to 1GB each in size was introduced on January 13, 2010.

One more reason to use Google Docs is that it makes OCR to the scanned docs. Google Docs also plays nice with Android.
