Richard, I have an iPhone 6, and if I have the profile set to manual picture, it works well. If I change the profile to automatic picture and try to have it take a picture of the same page in the same lighting, I get the lens closed message.

Did you get the question about giving KNFB permision to access the camera when you first tried to use it? I've never gotten the lense covered message. To me, that says there isn't enough light or something. I'll do some experiments and let you know.
