Met de Alinea app maak je een foto van de tekst die je wilt lezen. Alinea herkent zeer nauwkeurig de letters en zorgt ervoor dat de tekst leesbaar wordt gemaakt terwijl de opmaak van de tekst (de plaatjes en structuur) bewaard blijft. Het document kan je daarna bewerken, draaien en bijsnijden. Overbodige tekst veeg je weg en je beluistert de tekst die overblijft. De voorleessnelheid is regelbaar en je beschikt over een meeleesbalkje dat laat zien waar je bent in de tekst.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: The Root Workspace at none against Alinea's 1. The Root Workspace also leads on update cadence (every 3 months vs every 13 months). Alinea's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.
