Hi,

Yeah, it's really good, once you learn to get the camera lined up, and the app has lots of tools to help with that. I find it easiest to use in conjunction with a stand like the Fopydo stand, which costs a whole $15 or so. Also you can get the stand in a package with a book reading aid, which will hold your book open, for $40 or thereabouts. Makes the whole process pretty much a no brainer.
