Many of us manually save text from images, which often leads to unnecessary time waste for us. The 'Get Text On Image' App simplifies this process by extracting text from images, helping you in saving time. For instance, if you need to call a phone number displayed in an image, it's common to try typing the number manually, which can lead to mistakes. With the Get Text On Image App, you can easily retrieve the phone number and call it directly. Additionally, users can maintain a history of extracted text and edit it at any time, making it a convenient tool for managing text from images. Users can also retrieve text by using a scanner.

Features: - Import PDFs and images from the share sheet - Import files directly from the app - Extract PDF text with on-device processing - OCR scanned pages and images - Adjust font size, line spacing, and reading theme - Search inside imported documents - Keep a local library of readable documents - Edit extracted text when OCR needs a correction - Reprocess documents with cleanup options Readable PDF is designed for people who receive PDFs that are awkward to read on a phone: attachments, scans, reports, forms, handouts, and other text-heavy documents.
