I absolutely love Camscanner, and I have been for over a year on the old version because I refuse to update to the new version which requires network permissions. I exactly suspected this is why it needs those permissions.

To what did you switch? Camscanner is otherwise an excellent app, especially for combining multiple images and straightening them out.

Not OP, but I switched to using Microsoft Office Lens.
Thank you! This one seems to have the features of Camscanner that I use: straightening documents and combining multiple images into a single PDF.
I just continue to use the brother scanner in the other room. I don’t recommend brother, they updated the software and somehow took away features.
Unfortunately the HP scanner doesn't fit into my meeting bag!
Adobe Scan is a solid option as well.
Adobe has lost my trust years ago, and I see that viewpoint vilified often enough to never use Adobe software again. The only Adobe product that I still use is Magento, and only that on client sites. I would love to find a non-Adobe alternative.
