Great App, could’ve been better!

A great App, easy to work with with no monthly payment, which a fax app should be. The only minor sethback is the lack of an option for your contact info and ATTN to.

Works as advertised

I had no problems sending my fax or paying with my PayPal account...easy to use! It would get 5 stars from me if the app had the capability of creating a cover sheet that includes an Attention line along with an area for notes.

Beware Paypal payment is via embedded browser.

My fax worked. It was simple. However, be aware of a security risk that I feel was unnecessary in the way it got the payment. It used an embedded web browser window for me to log into PayPal. Thats a security risk since it could intercept my password. I wish it instead gave the option of me visiting PayPal myself in my browser independent of the application.

Does the job!

Easy and inexpensive to use. Would rather pay through itunes than paypal but thats small fries. Suggestion: Attatch the fax to the email fax confirmation. Still a great app ;-)

Worked Great!

This app worked great and I was able to send my fax as soon as I figured out that it only supports pdf files. The $1.99 charge was reasonable for those of us who only send a fax once in a while. I also thought the directions for combining and sending multiple page faxes were very helpful since I had scanned my documents one page at a time and wasn’t sure what to do with them. I would recommend this app to family and friends.

awesomeness!!

needed to send a fax & i was on a search for something a little more convenient than driving to my local officemax/kinkos. most everything is a subscription service which, while i understand the need for them, would be a waste of money for me. came across this app with such high ratings & decided to give it a whirl. it worked great!! very simple & to the point, nothing flashy. i got my confirmation email but i did call the organization the next day to confirm for myself (it was time sensitive info) & they had received my fax with no problems. loved the tip for merging separate pdf document pages….this also worked perfectly & actually saved me having to print the pages i needed & re-scanning to make one pdf. also learned how to save my handwritten signature to affix to a pdf if needed (didn’t even know my 2013 mba could do that!!). another awesome tip. although it may be a good idea to update those instructions for osx mavericks.

User Friendly app!

Ever wondered how to send the occasional fax? I think this is the ideal app. Have used it several times to date, and it worked without a problem every time. After the fax is sent, you will receive an email with the fax confirmation. I normally attach it to the Pdf file via Acrobat. Everything in one place and sorted. Well done to FaxFresh!

"Hit or Miss"

This is a convenient app when the only phone you have at home is a cellphone and no fax or landline whatsoever. I’ve sent a handful of 2-4 page documents through this app and most of the initial attempts are a failure. The second attempt is always a success and I have no idea why. Also there is no indicator bar to give you some comfort that it is transmitting the fax, just a plain line “sending…” and “fax sent successfully”. It does not have any sound to indicate it is dialing and responding to a valid fax number (with fax tone that is). Luckily I have not been charged on the unsuccessful attempts. I’d still use it out of convenience and cost and I could not find a close alternative. P.S. make sure to scroll down within the Paypal site and hit the YELLOW “PAY NOW” button AND NOT the “I’m Finished Paying” button within the pop-up payment screen.

Much better than iFax

This app is MUCH better than iFax (which continually crashes.) Easy, simple to use

Fresh Fax works perfectly every time!

This app has been a lifesaver, I have been in remote locations where I was unable to get to a fax machine, saves time and money. Instead of printing then faxing, I just fax straight from my desktop. No complaints whatsoever, paypal confirms payment and fax confirms through emails. It is simpl and easy to use, if I have any questions developer of app has been super responsive, best fax app ever!

Pay by fax is nice. Confirmation would be welcomed

I rarely send faxes (faxes are sooo 1980s/1990s) and keep hoping electronic documents will finally kill off the fax. But that hasn’t happened yet. So, it is very nice to have a fax app that: 1. Let’s you pay per fax (rather than a monthly subscription) and 2. Let’s you send faxes over the Internet (rather than over phone lines). This service is reasonably priced for the market niche it fills. Places where the product could be improved (none mission critical, all just niceties) are: 1. Let me attach multiple .pdf files rather than making me recombine them all into one .pdf document 2. Please offer (not require) to send me an email copy of the fax I sent that includes: date, time, fax number, confirmation of successful transmission (or not), and content image.

Works like a charm

Since I scrapped my fax machine several years ago, Fax Fresh has filled the bill for an occasional fax. Scan the document as a pdf, upload it, pay the freight and the job is done. Perfect.

Tried others, but this one WORKED

I have tried other fax apps and they just bomb time and time again. This one is different. This one works and to top it off is reasonably priced. My first fax I used an incorrect number. I paid via paypal and then immediately the fax started sending. No option to fix the number. My second fax was the same exact fax but with number fixed. Had to go to paypal again and make payment. After all this, I received 2 emails. One for the failed attempt (wrong number) and one for the success. The failed attempt notified I would not be charged. What a pleasant surprise that was. The second informed me that my fax was a success. The success gave me a confirmation number and recipient id. My only desire really is that the successful fax included an attachment or link to what was faxed so that I could have proof of contents. Outside of that, this was a great experience, easy to use, and they didnt charge me for my mistake on the first fax. 5 stars!

Awesome and Simple

With the no longer present “land-line,” the fax machine sits almost useless in a home office. With FaxFresh you can very easily fax companies that still use faxes (for whatever reason). Drag a file onto the app, type in a number, hit send, authorize payment through PayPal, and you are done. Then you’ll receive payment confirmation from PayPal and a confirmation of the fax sent from FaxFresh. Flawless and bug free. Using faxing technology when I do need it, once or twice every month, FaxFresh is there. This is how apps should work.

Good Customer Service

Good customer service. I experienced problems with paypal payment. Asked customer service for a refund. Refund was granted, no problems. Worthy to try, and if you don’t like the app at least you will get some good customer service :) - I will try it again next time I need to fax something (which is not very often anymore).

Worked like a fax

This is first time I needed fax anything. It worked unlike some of the other apps out there. Thanks FaxFresh.

Works pretty good, but it does hangup

This app works pretty good, but it did not work the first time I tried. The first time I got a Paypal confirmation that I authorized payment but the app hung up and said it could to process the payment from paypal. I tied it one more time and the second time it worked and I got an email from them saying it was completed. Then a few minute later I got one again…so it looks like it did it twice and I got charged twice. I am sending an emial to them to get a credit as it did not need to be sent twice.

Great Application!

No hassles with maintaining an account for that occasional fax. This program is very simple to use. It provides piece of mind by sending you documentation that the fax has been sent successfully. Hooray for FaxFresh!

Great for sending that occassional fax

I just wish it would generate a cover sheet for you if you want one. I ended up having to rescan my document with a cover sheet included. Using it was very easy and I received an email when my document was faxed. I haven’t confirmed it was received yet on the other end, but at least the app said it was. I don’t have a phone line, so it was nice that this uses my wireless internet. I would have given it 5 stars if it generated a basic fax cover sheet on request.

Not Bad

Nice to have an app available that will send a small quantity of faxes for reasonable cost. Receiving capability would be killer useful as well. Having to combine all pages into a single file is a pain, especially since the app does not mention that you have to include your cover page in that file. That’s a ‘boo-hiss’ for user friendliness and a surprising omission.
