Count a bunch of items IN SECONDS with this AI app!

Count a bunch of items IN SECONDS with this AI app!

If you work often with a large number of stacked items (boards, pipes, boxes…) you probably count them often. When that crowd is bigger, counting can take time. The AI ​​application will come to the rescue, which will do the counting for you in a second!

All you have to do is turn on the counting mode, point the phone's camera at the pile of objects and the total number will appear. In addition, the application will mark each individual item and assign it an ordinal number. You will see all this live on the screen.

iScanner

It is an iScanner application (Scanner App: PDF Document Scan) available for iPhone, iPad, and Android devices. According to the authors, the application uses artificial intelligence to recognize and count items that are grouped. It is accurate enough to count even smaller items in a smaller pile.

Having a quick counter to a pile of items in your pocket is useful for everyone, but this option will find its application mostly for commercial purposes. For example, construction or warehouse workers have to count large quantities of items several times a day, so this application is unavoidable in that case.

Therefore, the "Count" option is only available in the Pro package, which costs a symbolic $ 9.99 per month or $ 19.99 per year. Other features in the app are free and can be used without a subscription, but expect ads. If you want to use the app without a subscription, when you first start when packages appear, just tap the "X" in the upper left corner.

It may seem like $ 9.99 a month is a lot, but it's not. For example, there is another similar application "CountThings" which costs as much as $ 20 a day or $ 100 a month!

In addition, iScanner offers other useful options: digitizing documents, measuring object area, scanning and sharing recipes and documents, scanning QR codes, solving math problems… So, for an all-in-one app, $ 10 a month is not much if use it all on a daily and professional level.

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.
