Scanning your Docouments on the GO!
Today’s post is a pack of two interesting topics, one
being a review on Document Scanner apps and the other being, how to make money
using your phone as a document scanner’.
This post is specifically for students that own
smartphones on campus (University students) and love to make a little money to
cater to needs such as, phone bills (recharge vouchers).
Most newly produced smartphones have very cool
hardware and software features like; good camera and flash, super fast
processors, HD displays, user-friendly UI, Large data storage capacity and so
on… One of the features of these new generation of smart
phones which is going to be talked about in this post is the Camera.
phones which is going to be talked about in this post is the Camera.
Over 10% of mobile devices reviewed on GSMARENA spot 8MP and above camera and possess flash (thats 3264 x 2448 pixels and more). This makes smart phones very quick and cheap options for emergency document scanning. I have benefited immensely from this cheap alternative, including monetary gains and that is why I've decided to share this information with our lovely readers.
Lets talk about the basic requirements to be able enjoy this option.
- A smartphone (Android, Iphone, Ipad, Blackberry...) with at least 5MP camera and flash (for better output quality).
- Document scanner app on your device (check your appstore for compatible version for your phone).
yes...thats all you need!
How to make money using this App.
The truth is, not every smart phone user knows he or she can use his/her device to scan documents, save them in pdf format and share on the go. It is this fact that has necessitated this post in the first place (I'm talking from experience). So if you are lucky to have known about this before or your are just learning this for the first time, it is time to use your knowledge to earn a little something for yourself. You can quickly scan documents (scholarship application forms, Certificates, Identity cards, Passport photographs) for a friend that needs to send urgently or even total stranger and share it with anyone for only a token. Be smart!
I shall quickly review one or two applications that are available on the android platform that are reliable for scanning documents on the go.
