Currently Unable to Get Past Tutorial, and a Question
I just grabbed myself a copy of this app. First off, I was unable to get past the tutorial but will re-open the app later this week and see what happens. Now to my question. This app entry links to the "Synthesizer" entry. That is a paid app, so I'm wondering why it is listed in this entry? In any case, it's great to have yet another free scanning app.
