How to Scan Bended Books using an Android Smartphone

Now Scanscan Book Scanner has a feature to scan a page in a book. Sometimes if we can not take a picture in the front/up view of the book, we can not get a good scan result. Furthermore, if the book is quite thick. The surface become bended. The scanned result becomes deformed. 

Now, we can solve this problem using the ScanScan Book Mode feature.

ScanScan overlay a surface and two control points to align the book shape. By moving two control points, the shape of the book can be fitted and the scan result is better than without any modification.

Download and give it a try.
