While scanning, you can save reference points, as well as a picture of them, as an annotation. This annotation can have information filled into it post scan.

To create an annotation, start by pressing and holding down the photo-capture button with the camera on it, below the start-and-stop scanning button.


Next, drag your finger to the button with a cross-hair on it. Releasing will save your targeted position as an annotation point, and attach a photo of the area to it. More information can be added to the annotation after scanning.
