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.

Tuomas Rasila — Sat, 01 May 2010 17:35:38 +0000

Greetings for Stockholm, Sweden. I just wanted to announce that DocScanner 3.4.1 for the iPhone is now released. This minor release fixes some issues with iDisk and WebDAV integrations and speeds them up. This release also added a possibility to turn off automatic portrait/landscape view with the documents. As always we are busy developing a new release of DocScanner. This time we include new features like:

Annotating Documents
Google Docs integration
Dropbox integration (we will likely release this before big 3.6 release) UPDATE: We included this in 3.4.2

We have not forgotten Android and S60 too. Android is going to have new release in this month (UPDATE: DocScanner 1.3 for Android was released 19th May 2010) and S60 in the next.

Best,

Tuomas

We have received lots of questions about iDisk settings. Most of the problems are caused by setting username to email causing DocScanner to give error: “402 Payment Required”. So please set up iDisk username as follows:
