Featured app to improve productivity

Everyone wants to be more productive. An increased sense of productivity makes us feel more accomplished, organised and in control.

Take advantage of modern technology to increase your effectiveness in, and outside, the office. LMA’s featured app is TurboScan.

Purpose: Document scanner
Website: TurboScan
Mobile Device: Android and iPhone
Cost: US$2.99

Details: TurboScan turns your iPhone into a multipage scanner for documents, receipts, notes, whiteboards, and other text. With TurboScan, you can quickly scan your documents and store or email them as multipage PDF or JPEG files.

TurboScan uses advanced fast algorithms to auto-detect document edges, straighten the documents (correct perspective), eliminate shadows and set a perfect contrast.

For example, if shooting a document with the app at an angle, this app will find the document’s edges and turn the captured doc into a flat rectangular image similar to a typical scanner. After scanning, documents can be put into PDF or jpeg formats and be saved or sent through email.
