Portable Scanning Solutions.


With the recent release of Scannable on the iOS App Store, I thought it might be a good opportunity to curate a few links that can do scanning on the fly.







Scannable: Available for iOS





CamScanner: Available for iOS and Android







Genius Scan: Available for iOS & Android



Of course, none of them replace a flatbed scanner. However, they all work really well as portable scanning is becoming increasingly more productive and useful. Give them a shot, and if you use another one please let us know in the comments!

Referencing Made Easy

For those of us who do a lot of research and paper writing (but maybe don't love it...) I've found the following apps that may come in handy. I'm going to work with both of them this semester, and thought you may find them interesting:

RefMe  - Create references for multiple types of media and export to popular formats like APA and MLA. Web-based, with apps for iOS and Android. Free.



Video Overview of RefMe

Papers - Search for and create references via academic journals and Google Scholar. Supports in-app annotations. Can sync with iOS, Mac, Windows and Web. $79 desktop and $9.99 iOS. Papers is very loaded with content, hence the hefty price tag.

Happy Referencing!
