I took a look at this too but it's probably overkill for my needs - seems thorough though. Thanks!

You can scan in the Notes app now, and it's probably good enough for most purposes. As far as I can tell, though, Notes doesn't let you easily adjust the processing it does on the scans: it's just "Here are the 4 presets (color, b&w, greyscale, original photo) that are perfect for every use case. Enjoy." It looks like some apps are starting to integrate Apple's scanning (Notability's looks and works identically). I use Scanner Pro out of pure momentum (I think I first bought it on my 4s) and it has a few sliders to let you adjust that processing. I've found that makes it a lot better in cases where you need to scan a lot of handwriting, especially on lined/graph paper. I haven't tried anything other than those three. If you're going to scan a lot of things, I've found that the most important thing isn't the app. The most important thing is your lighting and surface:
I had a goose-neck work lamp that I put a yard or so to the side of where the paper went. It was angled it to shine on the paper but underneath where I held the phone. This kind of lamp, but imagine lowering the lamp a bit and sliding the paper to the left (and using a darker surface).  I would bet good money that if you can make a similar setup, the Notes app (or anything that uses the default scanner) would work just fine.

You would win that bet, I had that exact setup at the office back in the days of yore with dragons and offices.

Office Lens app has a passable scanner with skew correction. Google Photoscan has a cool mode where you take 4 "photos" (in video mode) to get rid of glare from overhead lights. Works best for scanning glossies, obviously.

Scanner Pro also lets you fax from the app which is a godsend for the one time every 5 years you need to actually send a fax

Froist posted:I'd like a way to save web content for reference later, grouped into different projects and (ideally) saving the content as it is at that time, rather than just a URL where the content could change later. This is basically to minimise keeping browser tabs open that I research, find an answer but don't have time to do at that moment. Not iOS, but if you’re serious about hanging onto a site/page, httrack is gold standard. Not pretty, though.

Native screenshots in Safari also now extract a fully scrolled PDF of a website. Don’t know when they added that but it kicks rear end.

Y'all know any free apps that will; 1. Say something (entered by user) 2. Wait an amount of time (entered by user) 3. Say something different (entered by user) ----- I want a Yoga App where I can define intervals and positions, but I can't find any that are free. AKA I want to make a unique yoga class. So anything that can attain the above features would be appreciated.

This is the world’s messiest workaround, but you could make some mp3s of someone saying the name of each position, and then silences of different lengths of time (or calm music or whatever) and make a playlist in the music app with them?
