Add an image of text to start. English works best.
Free, but the first time it downloads the recognition engine (a few MB) and needs an internet connection. After that it runs on your device — your image is never uploaded.

Questions about image to text
Which languages?
English works best in this version. More languages can be added later.
Is my image uploaded?
No. Only the engine is downloaded; the reading happens on your device.
Why is some text wrong?
Accuracy depends on how clear and straight the text is. A sharper picture reads better.
