Ads in the way too. But it’s not forcing me into the paywall so far. Every few scans it makes the paragraphs like half pages. The first time I scanned it again and copied it again. Annoying that I had to redo it to get it to work. Unfortunately on the second time I can’t get it to stop formatting the txt like this. Too long of a process to fix manually for the volume I’m working with. I think it’s time to look for another app that functions more consistently. ### 4/5 — Text *2026-07-21, version 2.1.7* Texted ### 4/5 — Outstanding aap *2026-07-08* All the best for our best future Al Text Scanner aap your amazing .Do your best and like this is 🌸 ### 4/5 — Helpful *2026-07-05, version 2.1.5* This is a helpful app. ### 4/5 — Rate *2026-06-11, version 2.1.2* Good ### 3/5 — Paid version not worth it *2026-05-28, version 2.1.1* The only thing you really get for the paid version is (1) no adds, and (2) more scans per day. There’s no batch upload—you still have to add the scans one by one. It is tedious and boring and I can’t imagine anyone wanting to do more than five of these a day. Just use the free version. ### 5/5 — Amazing ai tool *2026-05-16* Highly recommend it ### 5/5 — SAVED ME HOURS OF TYPING *2026-05-12* I’m a photographer and I received contact list that were handwritten from over 50 students with phone number name email classes they enrolled in and I needed to send an email to everybody so that meant typing out by hand every child contact form instead I uploaded all of them at the same time and it typed it up for me within seconds and I could just copy and paste it made my life so much easier. you can do it for free one at a time, but I paid for it so that I could do them in batches. ### 4/5 — Good interface, excellent results *2026-05-10* This gets the job done perfectly. Lots of option to save or share ; or to select file or photo ### 5/5 — AI Scanner image to text *2026-05-10, version 2.1.0* This is a great program. Very easy to use and accurate compliments to the creators. ### 2/5 — NOT FREE *2026-05-02, version 2.0.8* I don’t mind the usual adds on top or bottom of the screen, but only allowing 4 free scans per day unless you watch adds that are way too long: that’s not really free! It’s being held hostage. ### 5/5 — The best Scanner *2026-04-29, version 1.6.8* I can scan any image, with any language. I love it. This app will give me the text from an image with no error. ### 5/5 — Review *2026-03-13, version 2.0.3* Practically perfect. 4 uploads a day a bit low although. ### 3/5 — Meh *2026-03-08, version 1.6.5* Fairly accurate on French hand-writing, but FAR LESS than the claimed 99%.  After correcting the errors, I knew that reading it into Dictation would have been faster.  One of the errors was converting “mil huit cent quatre-vingt le vingt-un mars” to “mil huit cent quatre-vingt-un mars” ### 5/5 — Great For Writing Lyrics *2026-01-28, version 2.0.3* This app is perfect for me. As a producer and songwriter I’m able to covert my lyrics into a text file for my artist. ### 5/5 — Best of the best *2026-01-17* Best out of Adobe scan, scanner pro and other scan applications I have tried. ### 5/5 — Works great for math *2026-01-17, version 2.0.3* I have a large mathematical lecture I am working from and this app is great for it. It even automatically puts brackets where they should be. ### 5/5 — 👍nuff said *2026-01-10, version 2.0.3* 🙏 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ridiculous money grab *2026-07-18, version 2.1.7* Don’t purchase this notebook. It’s a waste of money. ### 1/5 — Why need online? *2026-03-06, version 2.0.3* The app net connection. But, I don’t want to expose my info to public!!! So, it’s useless to me!!!! ### 1/5 — Scam *2025-12-26, version 2.0.2* Although I bought the premium version I really have to restore the purchase often because they show advertisements. That’s absolute scam to me! ### 1/5 — To many ads *2025-12-18, version 2.0.2* Every scan you have ads.

I tried it again and it still showed gibberish. My handwriting is not even that bad its just a little crooked but it mistaked the word "It" and said "15" I dont reccomend ### 1/5 — Még a szöveget sem találta meg a képen *2025-07-06, version 1.9.2* Holott külön ki is jelöltem plusz kiválasztottam a nyelvet és bejelöltem, hogy kézírás. Ez alapján tökéletsen haszontalan. De már 5 mp-es használat után kéri, hogy értékeljem... ### 1/5 — Don't bother *2025-04-23, version 1.6.1* Don't bother to download this "Free user limited for 4scans/day. you should upgrade .............. to remove this limit........ ### 1/5 — can’t use pdf of image *2025-04-17, version 1.6.1* Wanted to test this out. Fell for it twice. I have hand written notes I scanned onto my computer (Pdf). Tried to use that file but can’t upload. don’t see anything on what image file this tool will actually use. But it isn’t a pdf image ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Amazing! *2026-08-17, version 2.2.0* Get it! ### 5/5 — Excellent app *2026-08-13, version 2.2.0* This app is excellent.
