Shoebox App Turns Your Smartphone Into a Photo Scanner
Shoebox is an app by 1000 Memories that lets you turn your iOS or Android smartphone into a scanner for digitizing old paper photos (the photos don’t have to be old, of course).

You can download it for free through the iTunes App Store or Google Play.

You can even go a step further by making a DIY cable organizer using a shoe box, which makes finding a particular cable a breeze.
