Document scanning software for Android-TOP 5
CamScanner-the most downloaded scanner app in Google Play stands out for its rich and thoughtful functionality. The scanning process is simplified as much as possible. For example, a photo of a document can be imported from the gallery, or shot using the camera's own interface, supplemented with special functions. Among them: grid, level, flash switch to flashlight mode. Both single-page document scanning and batch mode are supported. which allows you to take multiple pictures in a row. In addition, presets for scanning identity documents and presentations are available.
Once the image is captured, CamScanner automatically detects the document's boundaries and adjusts the perspective. To correct uneven lighting and paper texture, 5 filters and automatic mode are offered. Manual correction of scan brightness and contrast is available. The finished document can be saved as an image or as a PDF. The original image is stored in memory and is available for reprocessing. The application also supports recognition of text, but any formatting program takes disgusting.

In addition, the application is equipped with the means of organizing documents: notes, tags, password protection and its own cloud storage for backup and synchronization of documents between devices. After registration, 200 MB of storage is available, which can be expanded free of charge by inviting friends to join CamScanner.
The free version of CamScanner adds a "Scanned by CamScanner" footer to PDF documents and shows unobtrusive ads. The premium version disables advertising and adds the following features: editing recognized text, creating collages from multi-page documents, additional 10 GB in the cloud, support for third-party cloud storage and other additions.
Office Lens is the pocket scanner for your smartphone from Microsoft. It uses its own camera interface, which determines the boundaries of the document on the fly-it looks impressive! You can import a pre-taken photo from the gallery.
I would like to note the good work of automatic detection of the boundaries of the scanned area and the perspective corrector. Office Lens supports four modes: document, presentation Board, business card, and photo. And the latter does not imply the processing and correction of perspective, and retains the original image. In General, the filters work correctly, but there are no additional settings and b/W presets.
You can save the finished scan as an image or PDF file to your device's memory, or export it to your OneNote note. In addition, Office Lens can upload the result in Word or PowerPoint format directly to the onedrive cloud. Also declared support for text recognition, but the function does not work correctly.

Office Lens is a light free scanner. There is no built-in advertising, the service is designed to promote other Microsoft products. Let the functionality of the application lags behind the competition with a paid subscription, but the interface is not overloaded and the speed of work on top.

Scanbot is a good alternative to previous services. The developers went further. In addition to determining the boundaries of the document on the fly, the application gives tips during shooting, for example, that you need to adjust the horizon or bring your smartphone closer. Shutter release is also automated-guided, aligned on the tips and got a ready frame! The image can be imported from the gallery, however, we are faced with a strange limitation. For multi-page documents, the application does not allow you to capture part of the documents using the built-in camera interface, and the second part is exported from the gallery.
The free version offers 4 types of filters: two color and two black and white. There is no possibility to manually adjust the contrast, saturation or intensity of treatment. The finished document is saved in PDF or JPG format.
The main advantage of Scanbot is the synchronization of scans between devices using Google-account. In addition, the application can automatically upload documents to cloud storage or note-taking. The list of supported services is unexpectedly wide: Google Drive, OneDrive, DropBox, Yandex Disk, Evernote, Todolist, OneNote and many others. Synchronization with a remote FTP server is also available.
An unusual feature is the ability to send faxes directly from the application. One shipment will cost 129 rubles, however, the purchase of a subscription helps to save significantly.

The list of free options is limited by this. The developers offer several paid versions at the disposal of the buyer will be the following features: editing documents after saving, additional filters, file name templates, themes and reminders. For 590 rubles, the developers offer two copies of the Pro version of Scanbot, one of which can be shared with a friend.

Adobe is one of the most competent companies in the creation and promotion of graphic editors. And recently, a team from California is actively developing mobile platforms, Adobe Scan is one of the latest developments. As well as other scanners from the collection, the application uses its own camera interface. Auto-shooting is supported, however, the document search speed is inferior to competitors in the face of Office Lens and Scanbot. However, the developers have provided to disable automatic shooting and added the ability to import ready-made images from the gallery. The quality of automatic document boundary detection is also lame
With post-processing, Adobe Scan is in order-you can feel the company's many years of experience in creating graphics editors. The choice of 3 modes: Board, automatic color, or black and white. If you want, you can save the frame with the corrected perspective, but without additional processing. Quality filters on top, the scans look quite natural. The finished document is saved in PDF format. You cannot add, delete, or reorder pages in a saved document, and the actions listed are available only at the file creation stage.
Like other company products, Adobe Scan uploads documents to its own cloud. You can log in with your Adobe Cloud account, Google account, or Facebook. After registration, the program will ask you to specify the date of birth. Be careful, synchronization with the cloud via mobile data is activated by default! To disable this option, you need to uncheck the appropriate box in the application settings. The service also supports text recognition. The Russian language is in the list, but the recognition quality is poor — instead of the associated text, you get a set of characters. With Latin letters Adobe Scan copes much better - after recognition is enough to fix a tolerable number of errors.
Adobe Scan is free, there is no banner advertising in the application. Only there are references to Adobe Acrobat Reader-an application for viewing and editing PDF-files, which complements the capabilities of Adobe Scan. For example, adds the ability to insert comments or select text using a virtual marker. Available, including sorting pages in the finished PDF-file, but only with a paid subscription Acrobat PRO DC for 1643 rubles per month.

Tiny Scanner.
One of the most popular camera scanning apps for Android is Tiny Scanner. Its main advantage is maximum simplicity and only the most popular functions. In the built-in camera interface only flash control is available and nothing more. At the same time, Tiny Scanner correctly defines the boundaries of the document in automatic mode.
Post-processing modes allow you to work with images and text in color or grayscale. The filters for processing the text according to five levels of contrast. Any additional sliders for fine-tuning of the finished result are not provided, however, automation works out as expected. The result is saved in PDF or as pictures. The choice of three compression ratios. You can re-sort, add, or delete scan pages at any time, even after saving the PDF file
The organization of documents in the application menu is carried out using the usual folders, instead of tags that use other scanners from the collection. The application interface can be protected with a pin code, no fingerprint scanner support.
There is no support for cloud services, as well as synchronization between devices. Instead, Tiny Scanner allows you to deploy a local disk that can be opened from the browser of any device connected to the same network. A good bonus for users who don't want to trust important data to cloud storage!
Tiny Scanner — a free app built-in is in the time of testing was not detected.

The quality and clarity of the scanned image depends on the resolution of the camera-the higher it is, the better the scanned image will be.
To improve the image quality, you need to photograph the entire document and keep the camera smoothly, without tilting.
The document should be placed on a flat surface with good lighting. If the light is low – turn on the flash.

Look, I have read a research about scanners on https://customwriting.com/pay-for-paper and I'd like to say that the previous answer is the best one that you can find.
