Some handwriting is just hard to read. Your phone gives up on it, and you end up typing the whole page out yourself. Not anymore. Take a photo of any handwritten page and get clean, typed text back in moments. Messy notes, fast scribbles, joined-up cursive, faded old letters. Even the pages you can barely read yourself. Then do whatever you want with the text. Fix a word, copy it, paste it into an essay, save it as a Word doc, or send it to someone. HOW IT WORKS - Point your camera at your page - Give it a moment to read - Get typed text you can edit and keep MADE FOR REAL LIFE - Students turning notebooks and lecture notes into text before exams - Reading old family letters, diaries, and cards that are fading - Meeting notes and lists that need to become a proper doc - Recipes, journal pages, and anything else stuck on paper WHY YOU WILL LIKE IT - It reads the tricky stuff, even cursive and messy writing - No retyping, you get real editable text and not just a photo - Scan page after page into one long document - Copy, share, or save to Word whenever you like Try it free. Scan a page and watch it read your own handwriting before you spend a thing. When you are ready for more, upgrade for unlimited scans, full pages every time, multi-page documents, and a library that keeps everything you have scanned. Got a page your phone could never read? Point your camera and see what happens. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
