[Scan Feature] - Scan Documents from Files & Further Improvements

[MoritzDPTV]

Dear Nextcloud Developers,

the Nextcloud mobile app provides a scan feature for documents which already is awesome. There are two functions that would be great to be added and refined:

1. The scan feature allows to scan documents using the camera. It would be great if documents could be scanned not only from the camera as source but also from existing images from files.

2. When scanning multiple pages there is a delay (up to 15 seconds!) after pressing the “save” button (seems to depend from the amount of scanned photos). There should be some kind of pop-up illustrating that the saving is in progress (and optionally its progress), otherwise it may be hit again, which leads to a crash of the app and loss of taken photos for the scan! So this is somewhat crucial. Alternatively, the save button could be deactivated or something.

Thank you for your great work!

Best, Moritz
