Some force close issues, but usually works. A bit cumbersome since taking a photo of an entire spread only gives you a link to one half of it. Should have an option to save the page locally as a pdf file. Now I have to first email the search results to myself, open the link in a browser, and save the opened image from there, and possibly archive it to Drive. What a workflow.

Works great with Spits! (dutch newspaper)

I love the app to quickly scan recepies. I know one can then email them or SMS etc. But would be more user friendly if there comes also an auto back up to Google Drive and other cloud options. This way one does not loose all when switching to a different phone.
