This app comes in handy when I need to lift a quotation from a printed book to use in a document. I don’t have to key in the text letter by letter. Saves precious time!

Love to Use!
     
by DewingYou · June 12, 2022

I love how easy this app makes it to have text that I would need to type in and instead it types it for me! Very easy go use and it’s my go to for capturing text. Thanks for making my copying and pasting life easier.

Love this app!

I’ve used this app for years to grab text from photos. A real time saver! Quick, easy, and convenient.

It didn’t work as I expected

It kept translating in German instead of Spanish. There seem to be many who requested a refund since that “nickname” for this review is not available
