Do you have Camscanner installed in your android phone? Remove it ASAP

Google removed CAMSCANNER from play store.

For those who are using camscanner app in their android phones please remove this from your device

Google has removed this popular app after researchers discovered it was spreading malware.

This app has a program that scans files and converts them into PDFs.

Researchers at security firm Kaspersky had found a number of negative reviews on the app's Google Play profile that complained the app had the "presence of unwanted features," according to a blog post. The profile page has been deleted from the store.

The Android version of the app that was injected with malware from an advertiser could potentially show "intrusive advertising" to CamScanner users. CamScanner's iOS app is not affected, according to the company.

Kaspersky claims the app has been downloaded more than 100 million times. CNN Business has not been able to verify that number.

Some other alternative of CamScanner:

2) Scan Bot

3) Microsoft Office lens

4) Evernote Scannable

5) Google Drive

6) Note Bloc
