Exciting news for iOS users! This feature is now provided for free for both Android and iOS users. Previously, CamScanner sent me a notification to upgrade it to the latest version. Guess what surprise I have found in the new version? Free watermark removing feature! If you are a registered user, you can access this feature now and you don’t have to subscribe to a premium membership at all. The following are a few instructions on how to remove the CamScanner watermark from your files.

First, you should open the CamScanner app and log in with your account.

Then, scan your paper files. Basically, scanning pages is as simple as taking pictures and this app will automatically adjust the angles. I know most of us are quite familiar with this. If your files are stored in your account, just find and open them.

Next, click export and you can find four options, PDF, image, Word, and long image. Choose the format you prefer and tap Remove Watermark, and then you can get the CamScanner watermark removed in seconds.

I need to stress here that the Word format is currently exclusively provided for premium users. For users who prefer Word files, upgrading to a premium account is highly recommended. Most importantly, there are more worthy privileges for premium accounts.

After that, you can either save the file to your local folder or share it with your colleagues. No CamScanner watermarks left and no need for other apps.

2. Which malware infected the CamScanner Android app?

Hey guys, I would suggest each of you read the letter of clarification from CamScanner. It is posted here. It was previously reported by the mass media that CamScanner was infected by malware. Then I searched a lot of news on the Internet and I found this clarification. We can read that what truly got infected was an app called Free CamScanner! It was not CamScanner at all.

The fake one is stealing user information and CamScanner’s fame, which is built on the trust of its users. Fortunately, this app had already been removed from Google Play. Guess we need to pay closer attention to the names and icons of apps and we should not be fooled by these fake ones again.

For me, CamScanner is always a safe scanner app to use. I downloaded this app around five years ago and I have never encountered problems like personal information leakage. I feel that I can always trust its scanning service and file management services. I even updated to a premium account. It is a pity that this scanner app is misunderstood by so many of us.

3. Which is a good PDF converter app like CamScanner?

CamScanner itself is a good PDF converter app. For PC users, they may have more choices for PDF converting services. In terms of a mobile app, I think this app is the most competitive one in the market. Of course, it is also available on PC and works the same well. Still, I would like to focus on its unique features as a mobile PDF converter app.

Versatility Although CamScanner is not originally intended for converting PDF files, it pays much effort into developing its PDF editing services. The PDF converters it provides basically cover all of the mainstream formats, allowing for the conversion between PDF files and files like images, formats, and PPTs.

One-stop PDF editing services We know that CamScanner is widely known for its quality scanning services. But it is definitely more than a scanner app. Instead, this is a one-for-all app for processing paper documents on mobile devices. It is convenient to scan files with this app and subsequently edit these files with the diverse tools it provides.

Convenience With this app on our phone, we can convert PDF files whenever we have our phones with us. CamScanner is currently providing a cloud service that helps us to syn files across various platforms, which reduces us much trouble related to transferring files to other devices.

4. Is it okay to use the CamScanner app to merge PDF files? Read description first.

CamScanner is absolutely the right choice for merging PDF files. We know that this app is a forerunner in the mobile scanning industry but some of us may be surprised by its PDF editing converting services. Actually, you can scan files and merge the file within this single app. You don’t even have to transfer them among several devices.

As for merging PDF files with CamScanner, you should import your files to its folder first. You can also choose files stored in your CamScanner account. Then you can find many PDF tools in the menu bar. Click Merge PDF and then you can select multiple files and merge them as one PDF document. The whole process won’t take long.

For those who are troubled by watermarks previously, the good news is that we can now remove the CamScanner watermark from PDF pages and this feature is provided for free for both Android users and Apple users. Therefore, I would strongly advise you to stick to CamScanner. It seems that you are faced with lots of PDF editing demands. Maybe you should also consider opening a premium account. This will save you time and energy.

5. What is a good substitute for CamScanner?

Currently, there is no perfect substitute for CamScanner. I have seen many similar questions and I have tried some of the scanner apps frequently recommended in the answers. However, CamScanner is just the best scanner app.
