## What is Scan Note Write?

A text from a book can be handled as a message and can be shared. It also contains marking and writing tools to make learning and working more efficient. No pen and paper is required anymore.

Attention: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is a complicated task, but we are working on improving our technology steadily. We ask for understanding that special cases, crazy fonts, different languages, weak light conditions, etc. will be supported step by step via prospective updates. If there are unsatisfying results which our dev-team should focus at, feel encouraged to send us the targeted photo and/or a short explanation of your topic via mail at: contact@flooki.de

### 5/5 — Tolle App

*2022-06-09*

Texte fotografieren und als Textdokumente weiter bearbeiten geht problemlos! Einfach nur toll!

**Developer response:** Hallo Manni, vielen Dank für das positive Feedback! Freut uns zu hören, dass unsere App eine gute Funktionalität aufweist.

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2020-03-23*

Cette app ne fonctionne pas bien. 
Manque de fluidité, bugs, boutons non fonctionnels, UX et UI mauvais.

**Developer response:** Salut! Actuellement, nous avons travaillé davantage sur la fonctionnalité de base. La reconnaissance du français est donc devenue bien meilleure (avec l'iOS14). J'espère qu'au moins l'UX est meilleur pour vous.

### 5/5 — Beste Bild zu text app!

*2019-04-14*

war lange lange auf der Suche nach so einer app, mit der ich ganz einfach text abscannen und ihn kopieren kann.
habe etliche anderen apps wie "CamScanner" oder "scan plus" probiert aber das war immer viel zu überteuert und man mußte dort ein abbo abschließen...
diese App hier kostet gerade mal 2.30€ und erfüllt seinen Zweck, genauso wie ich es will!

Danke für diese tolle App!

**Developer response:** Hallo!
Vielen Dank für die sehr positive Rückmeldung! Da freut es uns um so mehr, dass wir nun sagen können, dass mit der Version 2.2 die Erkennung für deutsch nochmal deutlich besser geworden ist. Auch die Hintergründe und schlechte Lichtverhältnisse können besser toleriert werden. Die Wirkung zeigt sich jedoch erst ab iOS14.

Wir wünschen weiterhin noch viel Erfolg und Vergnügen mit unserer App.
