CLUSTER ADDS-CAPTURES-CONVERTS · 11 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2020-04-10
Mobile document scanners
Members of this cluster provide mobile apps that use the camera to capture documents and convert them to PDF, often adding signatures, stamps, or OCR. The dated entries show a sparse release pattern from 2016 to 2026, with long gaps between launches. Among these, PDF Editor－Scan & Converter, documentScanner, and PDF Scanner : Document Scanner show the highest activity signal, though all currently have zero stars.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
