But once that happened nothing was getting converted! It kept telling me unable to convert no matter what I did! I want my money back!!! ### 1/5 — Won’t convert anything *2019-12-05, version 4.1* I bought this so I wouldn’t have to type directly from my textbook. It doesn’t work. I want my money back. ### 1/5 — DISAPPOINTMENT *2019-10-07, version 4.1* Every time I try to open the app, it crashes! Even after I paid the 5 dollars to be able to instantly get my papers transfered to text! I'm really disappointed. ### 1/5 — Horrible app!! *2019-10-06, version 4.1* This app is absolutely terrible!! It worked kind of ok the very first time I used it. Then it’s never worked after that. Now it won’t even take a photo of the documents. ### 1/5 — Won’t convert text from jpg *2019-07-27, version 4.1* Where can I get a refund? 4.99 for something that won’t read a simple receipt? What a waste, refund please ### 1/5 — Refund please *2019-06-14, version 4.1* I spent $5 on this and it doesn’t even work. I wanted an easy way to skip the process of typing something into a computer from a paper, I thought this was it but nothing I take a picture of (that may I add has perfectly visible words) converts into editable text. Please let me get my money back or fix your app ### 1/5 — Pay Scam *2019-05-22, version 4.1* App makes you pay or wait an hour for each conversion then after paying the app doesn’t work just send error message after error message ### 1/5 — A rip-off off *2019-02-13, version 4.1* I deleted this app after I tied it. It’s a rip off. Makes you wait over an hour to convert and as you’re waiting it hits you up for money to enable it to do what it’s supposed to do immediately. Annoying,!!! I do not recommend this app at all. ### 1/5 — Rip-off-DO NOT GET TAKEN BY THIS DEVELOPER *2019-02-03, version 4.1* My experience with this app after 10 tries to convert simple highly legible photo to text failed each time. App pop-up then asked me to upgrade which I did. Still failed again. Then offered another $29 upgrade which is in when I decided this could be an app that is trying to lure customers into spending money. Very disappointed I picked such a bad app. ### 1/5 — Nope. *2019-01-24, version 4.1* I paid 4.99 to get constant notifications that it can’t convert book pages into text....don’t even think about it! ### 1/5 — Don’t waste your time! *2019-01-19, version 4.1* Don’t waste your time. I don’t know what the paid version’s worth, but the free gets you nothing. It promises a slow conversion and it takes for ever. I haven’t gotten it to convert a 6-word doc. ### 2/5 — Depending what you use it for *2019-01-17, version 4.1* If you are looking for it to transcribe hand written notes, than no. I tried it, and gibberish came out. Also standard transcribing takes 60-90 minutes is what is stated. If you pay however it’s quicker. ### 1/5 — This file can’t be converted *2018-11-26, version 4.1* I bought this app to accomplish a specific task. It displays “this file can’t be converted” but it will not tell me why it cannot be converted! ### 1/5 — Text Book Definition of Waste of Time *2018-11-26, version 4.1* Makes you wait 60-90 minutes unless you buy the premium. There are better apps out there. ### 1/5 — Bad app *2018-11-11, version 4.1* It may seem like a good concept but that all goes away once it’s downloaded. You take the picture and press convert and it gives you the option to either wait an hour and a half or pay 10 dollars. Don’t waste your time and find a better app that lets you do it for free ### 1/5 — This file cannot be converted. *2018-10-19, version 4.1* No picture of text can be converted so far before or after paying 9.99 to upgrade. No customer service to speak of. Don’t waste your money. ### 1/5 — Free to download, $10 to use *2018-10-05, version 4.1* This app is free to download. If you want to use it, you have 2 options: 1) Pay $9.99 to have your photo translated immediately or 2) Wait 60-90 minutes to have your photo translated for free (one at a time), which makes this app completely useless. They’re tricking you into downloading something you would probably not have otherwise downloaded. I won’t download anything from this developer again. ### 1/5 — Very Bad App *2018-09-10, version 4.1* I paid for the full version of this app, and it simply does not work, i tried to convert more than fifty photos of book pages into text, and guess what, NON of them worked. Zero... ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Really? *2021-01-30, version 4.1* They make it take 60-90 minutes if you don’t pay them, I’d understand it if you could only do a limited amount a day, but with this I don’t get to test the effectiveness of the app. ### 1/5 — Worked until I paid for it!!! *2020-08-25, version 4.1* It only let me do one at a time and it would take like a 10+ minutes (more then the 1-2) I decided to pay the $5 for the full version and now I can’t even open the app.... it instantly crashes..... ### 1/5 — Horrible! *2020-08-03, version 4.1* HorribHorrible! You can’t even see your converted text until 90 minutes later!! ### 1/5 — Crash *2020-07-19, version 4.1* App crashes immediately after start up so this app is not useable and a waste of money. I hope they will update it to work. ### 1/5 — This app is garbage *2020-07-02, version 4.1* This app does not work. They expect you to upgrade using an in app purchase but the free version does not even work. This app should be deleted from the apple App Store and apple should be ashamed of themselves for even approving it. If your someone who values your time stay away from app. If you want to waste your time then go ahead and download it. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t do more than one at a time *2020-05-21, version 4.1* First try worked. Second didn’t after 4 hours. Did 2 more and it went ok. Paid the $5 first took 2 minutes. Started another. After a minute started a second. The app instantly crashed. I cant keep it open long enough to delete one or contact customer support. Restarted my ipad but that didnt help either. After 10 minutes they are still “converting” but i have little in the way of expectations. ### 1/5 — Don’t buy *2020-05-21, version 4.1* I’ve used this app about 6 times successfully and another 50+ times unsuccessfully. I thought ok maybe if I purchase it we will run smoothly. I purchased and believe it or not it never registered I did. I’ll be contacting Apple for full refund. ### 1/5 — Constant crashing! *2020-02-18, version 4.1* Paid $4.99 for “instant” and multiple conversions and now it keeps crashing every time I open the app!! Can’t get it to stay functioning long enough to see if the app even works! Highly disappointed by the “industry-leading OCR” app developers! ### 1/5 — This App steals your money *2020-01-04, version 4.1* You pay for the unlimited conversions and they still take 60+ per page to finish. Do not buy. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-01-02, version 4.1* I bought the 4.99 version and it didn’t work. I tried many times and waited a long time for each document for it just to say “this file can’t be converted”. I want my money back ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfect app *2019-03-10, version 4.1* It’s a perfect app ever.

I only take a photos of any documents I need to edit and reuse, this app will help me convert them into text in few seconds! ### 5/5 — Up-to-date *2018-05-17, version 4.1* Handy app for everyday use. In order to transform an img to a doc I just open it and in seconds there's a result! I couldn't even imagine that a free app might have been awesome. It solves all my problems in bussiness and studying! ### 5/5 — A+ *2018-05-13, version 4.1* I am satisfied with this app. It's simply flawless ### 5/5 — Good *2018-05-11, version 4.1* It is very great application.
