Efficiently squares up and enhances photos of documents and presentation slides in just a few seconds

Taipei, TaiwanJanuary 7, 2014CyberLink Corp. (5203.TW) a provider of innovative media creativity solutions, today launched a powerful yet easy-to-use note-capturing app that isolates and precisely selects the important information in your photos, then instantly corrects perspective and enhances image quality.

The free app can be downloaded from the Google Play store; premium features, such as PDF export support and removal of ads, can be purchased in app.

Digitize Important Notes and Documents

Corrected, legible images can be saved as JPG or multi-page PDF files, and shared via email or directly to Facebook.

We’ve applied one-click design principles to ensure the workflow is as simple and intuitive as possible,” said Alice H. Chang, CEO of CyberLink. “For those attending meetings or classes, YouSnap offers a great way to lighten the load and increase efficiency by digitizing important information and making it available in the palm of the hand—or easily shared with friends or colleagues—anytime it’s needed.”
