I've used several scanning apps because I scan a good deal of receipts, contracts, warranties, etcetera, but I absolutely adore using the new Scannable app by Evernote. It is almost ***** proof. I mean, unless you opt for manual control, all you have to do is allow the app to see the document and within a second or two, it will auto align it and then take the photo. Heck, i've rarely had to even use the crop function. It's been that good, in my experience, and yes, it's free.
