About Microsoft Lens
Microsoft Lens (formerly Microsoft Office Lens) trims, enhances, and makes pictures of whiteboards and docs readable. You can use Microsoft Lens to convert images to PDF, Word and PowerPoint files, and you can even save images to OneNote or OneDrive. Microsoft Lens is like having a scanner in your pocket. Like magic, it will digitize notes from whiteboards or blackboards. Always find important documents or business cards. Sketch your ideas and snap a picture for later. Don't lose receipts or stray sticky notes again!

"Used briefly but had definite potential!"
Posted 2020-04-28Pros: Great tools for taking photos and utilizing the content from the pictures. Neat tool for snapping a picture of a business card and sending the applicable information automatically to a list of contacts.
Cons: Could only integrate with Microsoft Notes for sending business card data.
Overall: Used this for a few months. Loved the idea of being able to keep a database of business cards digitally and there are lots of other apps that do this but none that I could find for the price and functionality of Office Lens. Only downside was that it only integrated with MS Notes and I really don't use that for anything else so eventually I just stopped using it.
