Grab text from anything you can point a camera at — a sign, a receipt, a whiteboard, a book, a screen, a label — and turn it into something you can actually use. WordLift is a fast, focused OCR text picker that puts the text exactly where you want it: in your clipboard, in a translation, in a message, or one tap away from a phone call. Point. Capture. Pick. Done. — THE FAST WAY TO LIFT TEXT — • Capture with the built-in camera, or import any photo from your library. • On-device recognition reads English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Arabic, Cyrillic, and more — Vision picks the right script automatically. • Two selection modes that feel native: drag a rectangle around what you want, or swipe a highlighter across the lines. Switch with one tap. • Pinch to zoom into small print. Tap-to-focus on the live preview. • Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, and Reduce Motion fully supported. — WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH YOUR SELECTION — • Translate. One tap opens Apple's built-in translation sheet — works for every language Translate supports. • Copy. Sends text straight to the clipboard with a confirmation toast. • Share. The standard share sheet — AirDrop it, drop it into Messages, Notes, Mail, or any app that takes text. • Edit. Fine-tune what was recognized before you use it. Useful for messy handwriting or low-light captures. — SMART DETECT (PRO) — Smart Detect scans the photo for actionable data and turns it into one-tap actions: • Phone numbers → Call. • Email addresses → Compose mail. • Street addresses → Open in Apple Maps. • Links → Open in Safari. • Dates and times → Add to Calendar. It's the fastest way to get a business card, a flyer, a screenshot, or a poster into your phone without typing a single character. — PRIVACY, BY DEFAULT — • 100% on-device. Your photos and recognized text never leave your iPhone. • No account. No sign-up. No email required. • No tracking. No analytics SDKs. No ads. • No subscription. Pro is a one-time, lifetime purchase. — BUILT FOR REAL USE — WordLift is what you reach for when copy/paste should already be working but isn't: • Wi-Fi passwords on the back of a router. • A serial number, IBAN, or tracking code on a label. • A quote from a paperback you can't be bothered to type. • Notes scribbled on a whiteboard after a meeting. • A foreign menu — capture, select, translate. • A receipt total you need to forward. • A poster's date and address — straight into Calendar and Maps. — DESIGNED FOR iOS — • Pure SwiftUI, native gestures, native share sheet, native translation. • Dark, focused interface that gets out of the way of your photo. • Haptics that confirm — never interrupt. • Accessibility-first: every control is labeled, hinted, and reachable; the entire flow works under VoiceOver. — PRO: A ONE-TIME UPGRADE — Unlock Pro features for a single, lifetime purchase — no subscription, no recurring charge, no tiers, life time upgrades. Translation, copy, share, and edit are free for everyone, forever.
