Melissa used Scanner Pro to fax a document with ease and for a low cost. Check out Scanner Pro by Readdle.
Setapp
Melissa recommends Setapp because it’s now possible to find a combination of apps within Setapp that do the job better than a single subscription to one really expensive app and you’ll still end up paying less. If you’re a gig worker, small business, or freelancer, then you can most likely justify the annual cost for a subscription since you can probably find a set of apps to help you run your business. Ask your CPA, but the cost of the subscription is probably a business expense write-off. If you have college or high school students at home or you’re married to a teacher like Melissa is, then a Family subscription plan is a really great bargain for everyone. There are now over 250 apps for Mac and iOS included in one subscription that can be shared across four family members with four Macs and iOS devices.
