The app is so extremely helpful! But sometimes the text gets really mixed up so it’s hard to digest what it’s putting down.

Pessima!

Terribile, prende parti di parola e parti di testo a casa, e prima di farvela usare vi prendono già i soldi, non scaricatela!

Bien

Il me semble que la reconnaissance de caractères peut être encore perfectible, mais l’application fonctionne plutôt bien.

Partial Capture

Captures text, but in half screen mode only. If text is done for a full screen has to be done twice with 1/2 and Balance.
