Keep getting Tex Recognition failed try again error

I went through the trouble of taking a picture of something I’m trying to scan just for it to keep hitting me with the “Text Recognition failed. Try again” I don’t even know what that means

Instructions

Instructions are not clear

I feel tricked

I’m frustrated that this app took an exceedingly long time to scan my documents, page by page. I’m disturbed that this app shares a name with a reputable app, and that I was stupid enough to scan sensitive personal information into this app. Not sure if this app is collecting my data / storing my information. Buyer beware.

Too many ads

Too many ads, causes frustration, slow process.

Who created this?

I don’t know who decided it was a good idea to allow us to send 1 receipt at a time, but it really was a dumb idea. No use for this app so I’ll delete it once I get my expense report approved.
