If you've always wanted to have the ability to
scan documents while you're mobile, without
having to lug around an actual scanner or even a
portable one, the arrival of scanning apps was
probably a dream come true. But some of those
apps probably have very limited capabilities aside
from just like taking a picture of your receipt or
contract or even picture. As part of Microsoft's
continued "reinvention", their Office Lens is now
officially available for Android devices through
the Google Play Store.

Actually, this app has been available for Android
for more than a month now, but only on the
preview mode. After 130,000 Google+ community
people who tried it out and gave their feedback,
the pocket scanner has been tweaked and
adjusted, and is now ready for massive
downloading by Android users. What makes this
pocket scanner stand out from its competitors is
that it recognizes the corners of the document or
surface area you're scanning and it then
automatically crops, straightens, enhances and
eventually cleans up your image. So even if your
paper wasn't completely straight or the angle of
your whiteboard wasn't straight, it will still come
out as a straight document.

You can also save the scanned file on OneNote
or OneDrive so that you can still access it on
your other devices. You can save it on to
multiple sources at the same time instead of one
by one. It can convert anything from paper
documents, electronic screens, and even
whiteboard notes onto Word, Powerpoint, and
searchable PDF files. It uses OCR technology so
that you can search for keywords even if it's in
image format.

You can download Office Lens from the Google
Play Store for free. You need to sign in to your
Microsoft account for easier saving and
converting into other Office apps.
