HOW SURE ARE WE
Lower confidence: this app ranks below the overall top 50 everywhere, where single estimates can be off 2 to 4 times. The range is wide on purpose. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

Too many ads42%

33 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ used to be my go-to for scanning but lately there is so much garbage loaded in there that you can't even get past the ads!
★★★★★ I'm not going to wait for 4 ads to scan one file.
★★★★★ the licencing and adverts are a pain in the but
Price and subscription10%

8 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ not good for scanning at night, very embarrassing, and I want to cancel my subscription.
★★★★★ scam, immediate upgrade to different app required
★★★★★ My subscription for premium disappears and I have to pay for it now.
Worse after an update9%

7 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Since the last update the app freezes once the flash is used.
★★★★★ I re-downloaded after I struggle to open documents on this simple scanner and I updated it again from Google now I lost information.
★★★★★ Forcing me to update gets 1 star...
Lost data, sync, backup8%

6 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ today all of a sudden all my scanned receipts for month of august disappeared.
★★★★★ I re-downloaded after I struggle to open documents on this simple scanner and I updated it again from Google now I lost information.
★★★★★ Occasionally starting a new scan appends to the last scan...I think closing and opening the 'camera' button a couple times clears this; but those scans, if used, need to have the extra pages deleted in some other ap
Bugs, things not working6%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ definitely a glitch that should be looked into
★★★★★ Doesn't work at the moment.
★★★★★ false freemium, id mode does not work
Wrong or poor results6%

5 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Many ads have a fake close x button that actually opens the ad instead of closing.
★★★★★ they charge you to export the scanned app, so it is not only useless but also a scam as it is marketed as "free".
★★★★★ Because a lot of these look like fake reviews with zero substance and this is certainly not a 4+ star app.
Limits, credits, locked features4%

3 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Now even just looking at options will generate a new advert to be "enjoyed" and everything usable is now locked to premium.
★★★★★ My subscription for premium disappears and I have to pay for it now.
★★★★★ Like with all these scanner apps, limited usage without paying subscription.
Crashes and freezes3%

2 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.

★★★★★ Since the last update the app freezes once the flash is used.
★★★★★ the app is not opening after download

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

simple & easy to use it. I love it

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

used to be my go-to for scanning but lately there is so much garbage loaded in there that you can't even get past the ads! I keep getting these PDF warnings, qr barcode expired warnings and honestly I can't even get past them to get to the work I need to do. I deleted Simple Scan. They obviously aren't interested in customer retention.

★★★★★Oct 19, 2026

Ad infested. I'm not going to wait for 4 ads to scan one file. Doesn't let you export the pdf into a folder, you have to share it somewhere. Almost never detects edges of the page automatically Easily the worst scanning app I've used

★★★★★Oct 18, 2026

the licencing and adverts are a pain in the but
