Seeing AI does not describe people in the same level as Be My AI does but it is still an outstanding app.
In my opinion SuperSense’s document mode is the best at the moment, it guides you on placing your phone with instructions like: Move forward, back, left, right, nearer and away so you get the document correctly in the view of the camera. Not all edges are visible is not all that helpful in placing your phone correctly. Yes I know SuperSense is expensive but as I already have a lifetime license it makes sense to use it. Whether it is worth the money is a matter of opinion. Many apps now have a similar feature set and all have their strengths. Having all the free ones gives us choice and that is all to the good.
