OffLens is a fully offline OCR app built on Apple’s VisionKit. Capture or pick photos, draw a precise crop, and recognize text in multiple languages without sending any data to servers. Your images and text stay on your device. Key features: · Offline by design: No uploads, no tracking, no ads. · Precise crop first: Drag corners or edges to target exactly what you need. · Multi-language OCR: Recognize text across many languages; auto-detect supported. · Proofread with highlights: See bounding boxes over the original image to verify accuracy. · Editable results: Review recognized text in a clean editor and copy with one tap. · History on-device: Keep up to 100 entries locally; view, edit, or delete anytime. · Camera and gallery: Snap a photo or import from your library; optional save-back after cropping. · Share and export: Copy lines or full results; share with friends. · Privacy-first: No analytics, no remote processing—everything runs locally. How it works: 1. Choose Photo or Camera, then draw the crop box. 2. OffLens runs VisionKit OCR offline and overlays highlights for quick review. 3. Edit text if needed, then copy or share. Why OffLens: · Great for receipts, documents, slides, whiteboards, books, and multilingual content. · Works anywhere—even without a network. · Fast, accurate recognition powered by VisionKit.

**QR Previewer** helps you check a QR destination before you open it. Instead of launching a website immediately, QR Previewer shows where the QR code leads first, so you can decide what to do next. **Features** * Preview the destination before opening * View a readable URL and domain details * Review local risk signals such as HTTP links, short links, IP-based hosts, and heavy tracking parameters * Get a cleaner link suggestion when removable tracking parameters are detected * Choose how to continue: open in Safari, use the in-app browser, or copy the link * Revisit your most recent scans on this device **Why use QR Previewer** QR menus, event links, and shared codes often open too quickly. QR Previewer adds a simple review step, making it easier to inspect unfamiliar destinations before visiting them. **Important** QR Previewer provides local heuristic guidance only. It does not guarantee safety and is not a malware scanner or phishing blocker. **Privacy** Scan results are processed on device in the current version. QR Previewer itself does not upload your scanned URLs or scan history.
