Works… except it doesn’t.

Here’s my complaint: this app does what it says it will do, however, you cannot get the text out of the app. So you can’t use it anywhere. It won’t let you copy and paste or export the converted text in any way… unless you pay for that privilege. So the free version is useless. I moved on to another app (Handwriting to Text Recognizer) that works almost as well and lets you actually use your own words.

Love It!!!

I really wish I would have found this earlier this year! I prefer to hand write my therapy notes, but then it was taking twice as long for me to complete my work because I had to type it into our billing system. Im going to purchase it so I can export my notes. I’m excited to try this in the fall!

Good app

This is great for school when I write on paper and than submit into a doc the only thing is I can’t copy and paste

Use office

If you use office lens you don’t have to pay.

Review

Unfortunately I can’t copy past so it pretty much useless

This would have to be the hardest app I have ever tried to learn. Trying to line up handwritten text into blue lines is impossible. It didn’t know how to translate measurements & many common kitchen terms. Therefore I had to type so much in that it would have been quicker to type it up from my handwritten note in the first place. Sorry but this app is not worth it even if free.

Very useful,

Most people can't recognise my handwriting, so I can't expect a computer to do much better, but I was surprised to find that there were various different languages in the results along with things like "Thursclay". I also found that the way editing line by line was taking up a lot of space and, when trying to edit one, the entirety of the line does not fit in the screen.

I understand that this is mostly on my end, and the app works just fine when the paper is not being bent and the text is more readable (great for printed text and other people's writing), but I think there should be more options to customise the design.

Great app

Love this as I use handwritten text as part of my thought process. Fun glitches at times too

Useless unless you buy it.

Read the title.

This is an update on the copy

After digging a little bit more, I found that when you select “copy“ it saves the text that page in the settings tab. This is not intuitive but at least copying as possible. So I raised my review rating to three stars.
