## What is Excerptly?

Excerptly helps you capture meaningful passages from paper books and keep them organized by book.

Take a photo of a page or choose an image from Photos, then use on-device OCR to recognize the text. Select the exact words you want to save, add page numbers and personal notes, and revisit your excerpts
  later. Text recognition runs on your device, and your excerpts are stored locally. Excerptly does not require an account or cloud sync.

  Features:

  - Capture excerpts from paper books
  - Import page images from Photos
  - Recognize text on device
  - Select and save only the text you want
  - Organize excerpts by book
  - Add book covers, authors, page numbers, and notes
  - Search books and excerpts
  - Revisit saved passages
  - Export your excerpts

  Excerptly is designed for readers who want a simple, quiet way to keep the words they find worth remembering.
