You can then tap the download button to save the cropped image, and it&#8217;ll remove shadows automatically. (To convert the image to a PDF, you can either <a href=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/2023\/03\/07\/3-7-2023-your-phones-best-button\/\">hit the share button<\/a> and use the &#8220;Print&#8221; menu, or use a free image-to-PDF service such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ilovepdf.com\">ILovePDF<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Google&#8217;s Pixel phones have a similar feature.<\/strong> Just point at a document, and you&#8217;ll see a button to scan it into Google Drive. This method also supports multi-page documents, which Samsung&#8217;s app does not. For Android phones whose camera apps don&#8217;t have document scanning, the free <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.google.android.apps.nbu.files&amp;hl=en_US\">Files by Google app<\/a> is the next-best option. You&#8217;ll find a &#8220;Scan&#8221; button in the bottom-right corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What about iPhones?<\/strong> As I&#8217;ve mentioned in previous newsletters, you can scan documents through Apple&#8217;s Files app (by hitting the &#8220;\u2026&#8221; icon), or the Notes app (by tapping the paperclip icon inside any note). You can also search in Spotlight for &#8220;Scan Document,&#8221; and hit the &#8220;\u2026&#8221; button to add a shortcut to your home screen. The fastest method I&#8217;ve found, though, is just to say &#8220;Scan a document&#8221; to Siri.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-button-color-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-button-color-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">The best ad blocker (and how to use it)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/2024\/08\/06\/8-6-2024-the-best-ad-blocker\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"726\" src=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-1024x726.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7413\" srcset=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-1024x726.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-1536x1089.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-100x71.jpg 100w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-150x106.jpg 150w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-200x142.jpg 200w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-450x319.jpg 450w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-600x425.jpg 600w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo-900x638.jpg 900w, https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/ublockoriginlogo.jpg 1616w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This week for paid subscribers, I wrote about <a href=\"https:\/\/advisorator.com\/members\/2024\/08\/06\/8-6-2024-the-best-ad-blocker\/\">why uBlock Origin is the best ad blocker<\/a>, how to set it up the right way, and some hidden tricks that make it even better for blocking the web&#8217;s little annoyances.

For instance, US District Judge Amit Mehta called out Google&#8217;s payments to Apple\u2014<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lightreading.com\/smartphones-devices\/apple-s-search-engine-deal-with-google-at-risk-following-antitrust-ruling\">$20 billion in 2022 alone<\/a>\u2014for being the default search engine in iOS, claiming that this disincentivizes Apple from releasing its own search engine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What does this mean for you? In the near term, not much, as the appeals process will take years to play out, and it&#8217;s unclear what any potential remedies would look like. But at the very least, it&#8217;ll be a distraction for Google, and such headaches alone can bring big changes; the department has <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/google-apple-microsoft-antitrust-technology-cases-1e0c510088825745a6e74ba3b81b44c6\">argued<\/a> that its antitrust case against Microsoft in the 1990s paved the way for Apple&#8217;s and Google&#8217;s later success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Other news items:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Spotify <a href=\"https:\/\/www.engadget.com\/spotify-lyrics-are-back-for-free-users-175200293.html\">restores song lyrics to its free tier<\/a> after removing them in May.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Anyone still using Skype? <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/gadgets\/2024\/07\/microsoft-strips-ads-from-skype-in-a-move-toward-user-centric-design\/\">Now its menus are ad-free<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Warning from RTings: Ultra-thin, edge-lit LED TVs have more risk of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rtings.com\/research\/thin-lcd-tvs-break-faster-under-prolonged-use\">long-term durability issues<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Apple begins paying out a class action lawsuit settlement over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2024\/08\/05\/macbook-faulty-keyboard-payouts\/\">faulty MacBook keyboards<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chris Hoffman has some helpful <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerworld.com\/article\/3478592\/you-should-be-using-your-windows-pcs-touchscreen-5-must-know-tips.html\">tips for touchscreen Windows PCs<\/a>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Android beat writer on Google\u2019s Find My Device network: \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/9to5google.com\/2024\/08\/03\/google-android-find-my-device-network-airtag\/\">I\u2019d rather use AirTags<\/a>.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ikea.com\/us\/en\/p\/krubbet-holder-for-mobile-phone-dark-green-60577843\/\">KRUBBET<\/a>: Ikea&#8217;s new $3 lounge chair for your phone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>By me, for PCWorld: A <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcworld.com\/article\/2408194\/untangling-the-web-of-cloud-gaming-options.html\">big comparison of cloud gaming services<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-button-color-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-button-color-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Try this app<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Scout your seat:<\/strong> Over the weekend, my wife and I made last-minute plans to see Phish at <s>Deer Creek<\/s> Ruoff Music Center in Indianapolis, and we wound up with great seats thanks to <a href=\"http:\/\/AViewFromMySeat.com\">AViewFromMySeat.com<\/a> and and <a href=\"http:\/\/RateYourSeats.com\">RateYourSeats.com<\/a>.
