### 1/5 — Awful

*2023-08-14*

It doesn’t do anything. I type the word and hit search and nothing!

### 3/5 — Needs a couple more features

*2022-10-05*

When I’m camera mode there is no easy ‘Back Button’ or ‘exit’ button I need a way to rotate the search because I often search books stores where the books Spine is rotated 90 degrees.

Needs an audio tone when a find is matched

### 4/5 — Nice idea, often useful

*2019-07-10*

Big improvements since first version. Hope to see further work on it!

### 5/5 — Extremely Helpful

*2019-06-26*

This is amazing for college and work. Instead of having to flip and read through large works, you can use this to quickly go though textbooks and paperwork to quickly find what you are looking for! Can’t believe someone didn’t think of this sooner. Awesome job developer!
