8 of 11Tried several different items and didn't recognize emails on any of them
Well, I'll repeat it - best app ever!!!!
good, thanks
Could not get the application to recognize text from photos which is the whole point.
Never have gotten this App to recognize text. Giving up & deleting it.
The best recognition!
It seems to work great on business cards and probably other printed goods! It has the most problems with fonts where the "a" and the "o" look very similar, but I'm not that surprised. The solution for those fonts is to try to get good lighting and angle. For all the other fonts, I don't seem to have any or many problems. And of course, the bigger the font for the email address, the better this app can pick it up. FYI: It does NOT pick up any handwritten email addresses.
Only in trial stage, needs good Lighting...& it worked gr8t w/ an eMail address!
