The app scans well and crops appropriately, but cannot actually upload the scans. Not usable.Update for Developer with the app’s behavior:1. Take a picture2. ‘Edit Scan’ with the selector polygon2a Hit “Next”3. “Review” with working editing and color correction 3a Hit “Done”4. “NextScan” showing all my scans, with the orange button to start a new scan4a Hit the ‘paper airplane’ arrow to send the scans to the NextCloud server5. “Upload” selecting a document name, upload location. The interaction for selecting the location works, eg I see the folders on my server and I can navigate through them5a I hit the arrow to confirm the upload; the arrow’s animation plays; I don’t go to a new page, and the scan doesn’t upload.5 and 5a happen for all my folders and any name I give. The credentials I’m using in NextScan on the NextCloud server have admin privileges and is the account authorizing the NextCloud app on the same iphone.
Developer Response
Sorry to hear that. It still works fine for me. Are you able to see the second screen with your nextcloud directories?
What a great addition and useful app for NextCloud

I was amazed at how well this app worked. I have already used it for all my receipts and kids remote school documents I don’t want in Google’s world and then simple send the links to the teacher. I want to be able to pay for this app to not have to see ads though, would be well worth it! Just love how it auto detects the document for scanning too!!!
Developer Response
Hello, thanks for your review. Really appreciated. I’m working on an update currently with more features including getting rid of the ads.
Doesn't seem to work

I'm writing this here because I haven't found a way to reach the developer directly (I hope they see this)- I'm on iOS 14.0 and after scanning, pressing the "upload" button (looks like a paper airplane) doesn't do anythingNo errors, no messages.Am I missing something? I would love to get this working. Thanks!
Works great

Works great for me. If you are having an issue logging in, if you use two factor authentication, be sure to login to Nextcloud in your browser, go to settings and make an “app password”.
