They also give you the option of choosing which notebook you want to upload too, as well as picking from your currently used tags in your Evernote account.

You can see in image #1 the original, #2 is after adjusting the brightness, and in image #3 you can see the outcome after making a contrast adjustment. Once you slide it, it takes a second or two to take effect so move the bar in small adjustments until you get it where you like it. Touch any of the three choices to highlight it in blue (see #1 Brightness button), then move slider to adjust that aspect. This is the last screen before you actually save the scan, where you can adjust the contrast, brightness and grayscale, all by simply sliding the bar at the bottom of the screen.

Once you click the "USE" button in the above image on the left, then you move to the processing stage, which is the image on the right side. If it isn't, hit the retake button and start over. At this stage just make sure the scan is legible to your liking. Once you select your "scan," you move to the processing step.ĭon't worry too much about brightness or contrast at this step, you will have a chance to fix it later. If you take a picture, you then go to the "Preview" screen where you can either use the photo/scan, or if it isn't to your liking you can just delete it and take another one. This takes you to the screen on the right, where you can either take a new picture or scan, or use one you have stored previously on your iPhone.
