Hi, was wondering if anyone knew of an app where you can use your camera to scan documents (like Adobe Scan) which is FOSS.
OSS Scanner on F-Droid
I’m not finding it, do you mean Open Note Scanner?
Weird, I have the Izzy repo and it doesn’t show up.
Thanks for the link!
This is a major issue with F-Droid. I can find this via a browser, but the F-Droid app doesn’t show it, even searching by name. It just doesn’t exist. It happens all the time, I’m not sure why it doesn’t show apps that I know are there.
G-Droid doesn’t show it either. :/
I can find it on Droidify no problem and after reading your comment, I also tried on F-droid app and I can see it there as well. Maybe you don’t have it configured properly.
Open Note Scanner?
Thanks, just checked it out and this seems good for my purposes.
If anyone else wants a link: https://github.com/allgood/OpenNoteScanner
https://github.com/pencilresearch/OpenScanner I have not used it. But saw it on alternativeto recently.
Looks like that’s for iOS?
OSS Document Scanner is great. It’s also available in the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repository: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.akylas.documentscanner
Wow foss apps are so clean, it blows my mind how one person can do it.
it blows my mind how one person can do it.
One person can’t do it. When you’re making FOSS you’re standing on the shoulders of giants. Most of the code that makes up this app wasn’t coded by the developer of this app. Also, there are multiple people committing code to this repository, so it literally isn’t just one guy developing this app specifically.
Yeah, I love it!
