A robust friendly OCR app
The app is easy to use and has been spot on when it comes to extracting a wide range of text even against different backgrounds. I've been using the free version and am now considering upgrading to the pro version.Jesnft

Description of English OCR
Please be aware current OCR technology need your help to get magic result. The magic is predestined when you take pictures:
- Pictures should be taken in bright environment. Normally if your iphone flashed (in auto mode) it means not bright enough (even with flash);
- Pictures should be cropped to exact rectangle just include target texts, OCR engine will take everything inside as text to recognize;
- Pictures should be clear to identify characters, usually shaking or dark environment is the reason of ghosting image;
- Avoiding deep fold document, OCR engine will take everything inside cropped rectangle as text to recognize;
- You also can transfer pictures from other devices (scanner, computer, digital camera, etc.) to your device, then use this app to recognize.
- The only difference with Pro version (https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/english-ocr-pro/id562211141?mt=8) is advertising.
Thank you for choosing our product and help you enjoy.
