Pros and cons of Microsoft Lens: PDF Scanner app for iPhone and iPad

Microsoft Lens: PDF Scanner app good for

I had been waiting for such an app. It does what it says; it does it well. Im sure it will get better over time. But it is already great as it is. Thx to the developers. Wrote this a few months ago. It is the best app in its category.
A fast reliable app that crops your documents without a long procedure but rather a simple click on the capture button and it does the work.
Never knew such an app existed while i used to scan documents in a stone age manner. Its a must have app.
simply the best app to scan docs as pictures and take screenshots of screen and whiteboards
Microsoft, rather ironically, has been building some really amazing iOS apps and this is one of them. Perfect for my main use which is to capture expense receipts, but also occasional documents for OCR. Although its great that it does remember previous destinations,I would love to see a setting that always sends scans to a pre-configured destination, maybe even two, in my case OneNote and OneDrive. This would make the app much more efficient as I could snap, save, next, snap, save, next... Instead of always having to choose the destination. Otherwise a perfect app.
Version 1.3.1 adds multipage support. This makes Office lens extremely powerful! Keep up the good work Office Lens team.

Some bad moments

Every time I try to upload a created pdf to my work OneDrive it fails but the app doesnt state why.
Every time when I click done and try to save to album the app crashes, please fix it. It worked very well before.
I tried scanning one receipt but it wouldnt let me take the picture!!! Its like the buttons broken and also when you press the button "sometimes" THE APP JUST CRASHES!!! DONT GET THIS APP UNTIL THEY MAKE AN UPDATE OR A PATCH!!!
It works great, but please add the feature to add more than one scan for one document! I want to scan two pages and have them in one document, but I cant do that!
