Great!

Excellent value. Worth every penny

Total piece of junk

Got the free version try to scan one document. It scanned like three words from the top heading of the document. Total piece of garbage. I'm gonna delete it from my system. Don't waste your time.

Can't restore purchases

I am on iOS 16 and I can't restore purchase. The app just freezes. Also I couldn't contact developer in app. Great app by the way!

Review of OCR

It’s almost impossible to apply a OCR software to any thing I have trying to scan something or trying to type something of my own I was hoping to have text to speech and speech to text and I’ve got neither of those things I need health but there’s no way to get assistance at least I haven’t figured it out that’s my review

Didn’t work for Russian

I had hopes, but it sure wasn’t scanning Cyrillic

So Amazing and Versatile

so many times i’ve used this to copy and paste multiple phone numbers or sometimes just being surprised what shows up in a photo . Twenty Thumbs up i do believe i’ve had this app not long since original launch i know i’ve had for years , a glad to see others finding this Gem of an outstanding helpful app.

Works great!

I appreciate that this purchase is perpetual, not a subscription.

Does not work, not user error.

First, to make this work they provide no real images except 2 icons in the instructions. You kinda have to know instinctively what they mean. But even when you manage to follow the instructions, this does NOT perform OCR… that is just false. This app only looks at the image metadata and shows it for you.

I took screenshots from a mobile game with a list of players. Despite the text being in very distinctive colors than the background and there being nothing else on the image, to one letter was identified by this app. Not one. It only showed me the information regarding the file.

OCR means Object Character Recognition and not EXIF data reader. It is false that this app can do OCR at least in what I tested it with.

Hidden costs

It should tell you up front that it costs $3.99. Instead it waits until you try to scan something and then you have to purchase. If I would have seen the cost I would just purchased it but this feels like bait and switch. Like you get a trial you don’t. (It showed me just 3 inaccurate words.)

Super useful tool

I can't stress enough how easy it is to work with. The fact that it is on the share menu, as an option in the drop down list.
I breeze through my snap shots to convert to text and incorporate it into my spread sheets and word documents.

Also the crop selection tool it's god like, since some times documents are irregular in shape and can wrap around tables and figures or pics. makes it super easy to extract selectively.

you are awesome guys keep up the good work

did i mention you don’t need internet connection for it to work
how awesome is that.

Brilliant app

Been using this app for a little while and it’s simply fantastic. Very quick, efficient and almost always accurate. Thank you dev!

Fantastic tool

I use this app quite a bit and it’s one of my most important utility!
I use it to quickly capture screen shots of numbers or codes from app giveaways which are then converted to text and redeemed in the app store.
I just wish the Mac app is as straightforward to use like the iPhone app. All said, it’s crazy fast and accurate in making text and numbers in pictures editable.

The best OCR app out there

Chocked with great features, easy to set up, totally versatile. I’m so glad I took the time to dig through the App Store to find this.

Great OCR scanner!

Just got wind of this. Very handy extension that just works. No unnecessary application, 3rd party services, cloud features I don’t need, or annoying ads.

Install. Activate extension. Take photos with whatever camera app you prefer and OCR them. Tried it on everything from a bill, a business card, a page out of a book, a PDF. Recognized text FAST and let me do what I wanted with it easily.

Great extension. Happy to recommend it.

Best App for Grabbing Text from an Image

Great app for getting text out of an image as quickly as possible! Kudos to the developer for making my life easier!

Perfect

It’s so incredibly handy. Thank you.

Life and time saver

This has been the most used app in both my Mac and iOS device, especially since these uncertain times where jobs change dynamics. I love how I can use it via the photos app and it’s really easy to use. It identifies lines and breaks them so the content is easy to copy.

Fantastic App

I have tried numerous OCR apps and this app does everything I was looking for in a OCR app. The share extension makes it really easy to copy some text out of a screenshot.

My only feedback would be to add an option to hide the EXIF data to make the UI less cluttered.

Don’t Buy Some $10-$50 App - This Is All You Need!

This app is lightweight, fast, and even more accurate than Readdle’s Scanner Pro OCR feature. It can easily differentiate between numbers and letters, and lists websites, emails, and phone numbers in a quick easy to copy and paste manner. If you want to scan emails, textbook questions, message history, app comments, etc, this app will get it done right and in a quick manner. Highly recommend this app and this developer!
