Anyone with SuperShare or SuperShare Lite that’s within range will be able to pull the files right off your iDevice. The app also includes the ability to move files, zip single or multiple files, and print, preview, rename, or email files. It features both iCloud and iTunes File Sharing support as well.

All of your scans are automatically saved to the in-app library, and they can be shared via email, opened within other apps, or uploaded to Dropbox, Evernote, or Google Drive.
