Also, even though it's a paid app, it has aggressively persistent full-screen popup ads. ### 1/5 — ... *2014-05-21* Totaler Müll !!! ### 1/5 — Useless *2014-05-17* Doesn't even work, all it brings is gibberish punctuation; it could not even extract 3 printed words. ### 1/5 — dont buy/Nao comprem *2014-05-04* nao comprem!! nao funciona. Eh uma porcaria. Dont buy. it does work at all. ### 1/5 — This translates to>^]+}'*]+{*]+}*\~€¥]* *2014-04-28, version 1.1* I mean seriously? It doesn't even work on digital words. It just types a bunch of symbols. *]*{^^[<|<>_%{<\<%\> ### 1/5 — Werbung???????? *2014-04-28* In der Profi-Version wird Werbung eingeblendet!!! Was soll das? Sorry, aber die App wird gleich wieder gelöscht. Texterkennung ist sehr schlecht. Auch bei sehr scharfen und kontrastreichen Artikeln. ### 2/5 — Poor *2014-04-28* Not much of use for small font text, or long lines of text... ### 1/5 — Nao gostei *2014-04-28* Testei e não gostei. A ideia do aplicativo é ótima, porém, não cumpre o que promete ### 1/5 — A "Pro" app with full screen ads? *2014-04-28* I cannot believe that this app was updated, being a paid for "Pro" version, to add a full screen start up ad, and another full screen ad when you press the settings icon. I'm now looking for another app to replace this bait-and-switch BS. ### 1/5 — Sehr schlecht *2014-04-24* Wollte einen sehr gut lesbaren deutschen Text von einer Grafik auslesen lassen. Kompletter Wirrwarr rausgekommen. Exakt gleiches Vorgehen mit Pixter klappte hervorragend! Finger weg! ### 1/5 — UM LIXO! *2014-04-22* Joguei dinheiro fora! Essa porcaria não funciona. Até mandei email pedindo meu dinheiro de volta, mas não retornaram. ### 1/5 — Anglais seulement *2014-04-21, version 1.0* Pourrait être intéressant mais ne reconnait que les textes en anglais. Impossible de changer la langue. Inutile pour moi. ### 2/5 — A complete crap *2014-04-21, version 1.0* This app is a crap, avoid it. ### 1/5 — Deleted *2014-04-21* I tried it in both, English and Spanish. The extraction is better in English, but it still awful. Also it seems to have problems distinguishing commas and dots (points, periods, whatever you call it) ### 1/5 — Pretty poor *2014-04-21* Unfortunately it doesn't pick up much and gives you random text instead. ### 1/5 — Schrott *2014-04-21* Was soll das. Absolute Müll-App. Auch nicht ein Hauch von Funktionalität. Kann man sich sparen. Leider muss ich mindestens 1 Stern geben, was schon zu viel wäre. ### 3/5 — falha muito *2014-04-21* Textos grandes (como a página de um livro), esqueça. Apenas frases curtas e letras grandes, infelizmente - pois o aplicativo tem uma interface fácil e seria um must have se funcionasse. ### 2/5 — Close-ish *2014-04-21* So far, the app does not do a very good job. It does a somewhat decent job, but can't do the whole text I scan. If it improves the app will get 4-5 stars. Now, it's just not there yet. Very inaccurate. Oh, and it doesn't do Arabic...I read that somewhere! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Avoid - it’s just rubbish! *2022-08-13* Simply ‘not’ fit for purpose. Don’t waste time or money on this app. ### 1/5 — Totalmente inútil *2019-05-30* Não baixem.....não serve para nada....horrível ### 1/5 — Nutzlos *2018-05-20* Für mich einfach nur nutzlos Erkennt fast nichts korrekt - echt schade ### 1/5 — Awful. *2018-03-30, version 1.3* Gave it nice plain black text on white background and it could not identify one word correctly. I don't know how other reviewers had success when it was so far off for me. ### 1/5 — Müll *2018-03-30* ... fünfzig Prozent werden maximal erkannt. Wieder gelöscht. ### 1/5 — Does not work *2018-02-27* The app does scanning text in photo, but fails to detect correct characters and words even tested with screenshots containing Arial text font. ### 1/5 — Mr *2016-03-14* A myopic dyslectic can read better. ### 1/5 — Terrible App! *2014-09-30, version 1.1* Just a gobbled mess, plus this "Pro" version has obnoxious full-screen ads! Do not purchase! ### 1/5 — Lies, do not use it *2014-08-03* A paid version with full screen advertisement any time i click on it. They cheat us. Do not trust them ### 1/5 — Useless *2014-05-31, version 1.1* Can't read text at all. Gets a couple words then I get sentences of random symbols. Waste if iPhone space ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 5 Stars! *2015-09-24* It had a great interface to scan my doc. I like it! ### 5/5 — Supports English *2014-04-20* So the majority of us will benefit greatly from this intuitive app. For English speakers it's a 5 star app. ### 5/5 — Awesome app! *2014-04-20* This is not mainly a translation app, so that guy can shut up with his one star review. This app works great! ### 5/5 — To the guy complaining about Arabic language support *2014-04-20* You, sir, are clearly an idiot. If you read the instructions, you'd know to face the sun, turn the phone upside down, and then proceed. ### 5/5 — Aprovado. *2014-04-20* Muito prático e fácil de usar. Um scanner com OCR em qualquer lugar. ### 5/5 — Works well. And it doesn't support the Arabic language *2014-04-20* Yay. ### 4/5 — Works Quite Well *2014-04-21* I just scanned a difficult doc with 4 or 5 different font sizes and formats. It looked to be better than 95% accurate. You have to hold the phone upright. ### 4/5 — Does what it says *2014-04-21* The app must've been improved since the earlier reviews. I tested it a few times and it appears to work and recognize just fine, English that is. ### 4/5 — It actually worked! *2014-04-20* I used English text. Most of the negative reviews seem to have problems with other languages. If you can live with that, this is worth a try. ### 4/5 — Good Start *2014-04-20* Only needs Translation support for languages other than English and it will be 5 stars. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
