Not working with current iOS

I was happy with the app until the iOS 16.1.1 update. Scans leave out big sections now! Very disappointing. Please update.

Sorry, we will fix this bug as soon as possible.

No way to delete old files

Once a document is selected, there is no way change or delete it. No way to delete older files. Cannot add a new file because you cannot get out of the file selected once it is on screen. No “how to” help.

Works fine but… no delete?

The app performs as advertised but once the documents have been OCR’d, there does not seem to be any way to delete them if needed…

Good and fast

This application is among the best of the handwriting OCR apps and it’s also very fast compared to many of the others. Finally, it stores the results for you. I tried a few apps which want to charge you money every week and I did not find them to be any better than this.

A word of warning, with any of these apps, there’s no substitute for writing legibly. Also, it seems to be a general rule that cursive is not recognized as consistently as printed text, but it does recognize it.

A Hidden Gem

Wasted time testing “free” apps with in-purchase features blocked ability to fully test the app. Turned those features were all here for just $0.99. This app works fast, and read my handwriting better than I could read my own handwriting. I converted 35 pages of handwritten notes in minutes compared to hours wasted on other “free” apps.
