Technology expert Adi Perl explains: In the first step, place the photo in front of your smartphone's camera. Then, the app will instruct you to take a photo of the four corners of the photo, so that each click includes a quarter of the image. And finally - PhotoScan will know how to connect the parts together into one digital image, which you can save to your Google Drive account or any other server.
The app will not only connect the puzzle pieces into one image, but can also renovate it using color corrections, image rotation, or cropping to achieve the best result.
The disadvantage of PhotoScan is the loss of quality compared to the original image, as no digital photo can match the quality of good old film.
