User reviews

I must be missing something!

Just downloaded this app. Am trying to scan and convert a paragraph from a printed book into text in my clipboard, and am getting nowhere. Have been through the info “walkthrough” a dozen times.

Helpful for a myriad of reasons!

This app is so helpful for so many aspects of life. The icons are easy to use and the app clearly teaches how to use it. I use this app to look up words I don’t know in books, get addresses off of invitations, and and even searching different medications on the internet.

Great reading companion

I have been using this while laying in bed and reading to look up words I don’t know. The interface is clean and simple with nothing getting in the way of capturing and sharing text. Couldn’t really ask for anything more.

Easy to use

Worked great and was able to copy and paste instead of having to type it out completely.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review I'm glad it's helpful!
