With Its New Mobile Scanning App, Evernote Is Trying To Transcend Paper

Scannable is entering a crowded category, but it's clever, simple, and useful.

Open Evernote's new Scannable app, point it at a document, business card, or receipt, and plop, it instantly creates a digital scan ready to be sent to a number of different locations—including an Evernote account. The free app, announced back in October, is now officially available in the iOS App Store.
