Scanner Pro 4.5 Update Adds Automatic Border Detection
Readdle is back with another update to its universal Scanner Pro for iOS, and while Tuesday’s version 4.5 release only adds a single feature, it’s a pretty slick one: The app now detects page borders in real time. As you can see from the embedded YouTube video, the result is a neat visual trick, but it’s a practical addition as well, cutting down on the time users spend on cropping and manually adjusting page borders. Real-time border detection should help users fly through a stack of documents in no time at all, thanks to batch mode. The Scanner Pro 4.5 update is now available from the App Store.
