Best OCR turns any piece of paper into text you can use. Point your camera at a page and the app finds the edges, straightens it, and cleans it up. Tap once more and the words come out — ready to copy, edit, or send. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Scan several pages into one document, up to 30 — reorder or remove pages before you export • Scan documents, receipts, notes, and business cards • Pick a photo you already have and crop it by hand • Choose a page tone: Original, Enhance, Gray, or Black & White • Read the text out of the page in 30 languages — the app picks the right one on its own • Copy the text, or share it as a plain text file • Save the tidy page to Photos, or send it as a PDF or an image YOUR SCANS STAY ON YOUR DEVICE Scanning and text recognition run entirely on your iPhone. Your scans are never uploaded, and you don't need an account. Best OCR is free, supported by ads.
