Mopria Alliance Releases Mobile Scanning App

The Mopria Alliance, a global non-profit membership organization providing universal standards and solutions for print and scan, is releasing its Mopria Scan app, providing a complete scan solution and universal standard that is compatible with scan devices from most manufacturers.

The new app enables scanning of photos, documents, and other media directly to an Android device.

The Mopria Scan app unlocks the convenience of scanning at work, at home, or on the go by streamlining the scanning process allowing users to scan directly from their scanner or multi-function printer (MFP) to an Android device.

Where previous scanning methods required vendor-specific applications to be installed, Mopria Scan eliminates the hassle of installing apps for multiple scanners and most scanner brands are supported.

Mobile scanning is more important now that ever and this research shows the increasing demand for digital document scanning and sharing on mobile devices, said Greg Kuziej, Chairman of the Board at the Mopria Alliance.

Mobile scanning offers several benefits, such as the ability to save files on a mobile device, in the cloud or straight to a mobile app.

Mobile scan functionality means users can send their scanned files directly to email, file browsers, document viewers, or cloud services like Dropbox, Evernote, Google Drive, and more. 

Mopria Scan also offers a wide range of universal settings options like resolution, color, file format and custom scan areas.
