As sometimes happens with interesting apps, a few days after I write a review, the app has another update and a number of features are added or changed. This is the case with CamScanner+, an app that uses the iPhone camera to create a PDF or JPG scan of documents.

I reviewed version 3.6.0 of CamScanner+ earlier this week, which was updated last week (15 Jan) and included reminders of a couple of other like apps: Genius Scan - PDF Scanner and My Scans.

Now the app has been updated to version 3.6.1 and there are a number of extras that are quite useful:

• Syncing speeds have been increased

• Users may upload documents to Onedrive

• Documents may be sorted by name

• The ability to re-capture and replace any page of a document is included

• The tagging feature has been optimized

• Faxing activity details have been added

• In a multi-page document, users may slide quickly to find a certain page

• There is additional language support: Portuguese, Polish, Italian, Turkish, Russian and Arabic.

CamScanner+ is available on the app store for $0.99 and has a number of in-app purchases available. There is also a free version of the app - CamScanner - that also has a number of options available as in-app purchases.
