Good OCR
This seems to be a very competent OCR reader. One problem is that it does not allow you to restrict the field.Often I will email it at a section of text and it will insist on focusing on some nearby puzzle or picture. I cannot restrict the field narrow enough unless I actually edit the picture. I would like to be able to indicate just what text I am interested in. Also, often the text appears to be too dark for the program to work. Lightening programs and apps are easily available and it would be nice if that could be incorporated into the reading algorithm as well.
Works…but…
The app does allow you to take a pic of an email address or web URL and go to them, but how do you delete the pic when you no longer need it? It would be nice to have an easy to find delete feature.
Replacement for Apple live text
I am on iPhone 7 with iOS 15 and I wanted to copy text from photos. As live text doesn’t support my phone, I was searching for an app that did the same. This app is perfect! Just one thing, the special scans for a phone number etc are not very intuitive as it’s only an emoji. Maybe in a future update when you press it it will say something like “Scan for a phone number” on top of the 2 options (take photo or choose photo). Other than that I love this app!!!
Love it!!!
I have been looking for a way to OCR photos! Works great! thanks
No update in over TWO YEARS?!
Why does AppAdvice feature apps that don’t support the most recent iOS version?! This app hasn’t seen an update in over two years . . . the last update was for the iPhone XS Max screen! Yikes!
WHAT?
No matter which icon I touch it says take a photo. I take a photo and it translates to the screen perfectly. There is no way to transfer that information to anything, email, twitter, word, whatever. The second, third, and fourth tries it only gave me three headings from the original paper and none of the rest. How do I get help instructions?
Don’t waste your time. Take a pic.
Seriously, you have more options to save, file whatever is you take a pic or screenshot. A useless app with no way to save or retreive. Also, the developer can’t be bothered to submit a privacy policy to Apple. Who knows what info they’re grabbing or what they’re doing with it! Says they’ll require one be submitted next update. Doesn’t appear they’ll be a next update or app at all in the app store next update. Run Away!
