User Reviews for Text Capture: Image to Text

Don’t download this App

The developer plays the deceit game. The app is not free, but you are lead to believe it is. No where does it state a fee. But when you download the app snd open it you cannot do anything unless you pay the subscription fee. Now granted it is a small one time fee but I feel that is so deceptive because you don’t even know if the app will even work for your needs. You cannot even test it’s capabilities without buying subscription first. So stop playing the game of deceit and be up front with the customers. You have a lot of reviews about this and they back years. So you know your doing it and you don’t even made an effort to change the wording in app that it’s a Subscription fee. But no you want everyone to buy it and then if it does not work your not going to refund fee. It’s just so wrong and deceptive plain and simple

Probably best bet for OCR

It seems everyone is going towards the subscription model, which I hate. I looked at many OCR apps and no matter what the description said, they always ended up in some subscription model. A lot of deceptive marketing out there. This app still kind of tricks you though. You download it and the OCR works, UNLESS you want to actually edit or copy that text. Behold the in-app purchase. It’s $1.99, but it’s a one-time fee to unlock that feature. I don’t think they had to hide that. The app is useless unless you pay it. Why not just say the app is not free, it’s $1.99? It’s totally worth that and I think given the other options out there, this is the best choice. Maybe not the most beautiful, but extremely intuitive. The accuracy is okay, but I’ll let you in on a little secret, everyone uses the same open source OCR library. So, the greatest influencer on accuracy is the quality and contrast of the scan.So I bought this app. If you want to buy another prettier one and pay $2.00 a month for some other app (for the rest of you life since you will likely forget you are paying) more power to you.

Consider allowing other dimensions for cropping

This app is perfect and helps me with text to speech for many of my classes. I have a lot of reading to do, but learn better when text is read back to me. The only issue i have is that when I upload images, I can only fit them into a square box. Because of this, i will have to upload the same page two times so I can get both the top and bottom. It would be nice if I could customize the dimensions instead. Thanks!

It doesn’t read then I turned on silent mode off

1. So I think this would be common mistake but too common and many people wouldn’t know what to do. Could use a warning. 2. The instant capture doesn’t take proper punctuation so it will read weird. Instead take picture and use this app to scan and read to hear more natural reading 3. With that said this app should have camera feature, so I don’t have to take pictures out side and import to here. I mean if I was going to take multiple steps and gestures, there are free options ^^Overall good app. Best I can find.

Multi-functional,Nice price

Save and name the scanned text as a separate text collection in the app. Save text from image as text file for any text doc app. Scanner recognizes many types of characters/symbols besides standard letters,numbers. So it makes for a decent BASIC text editor. Definitely worth the $ for what I need it for.

Corrected update:“Share” button doesn’t work but it “just works” fine otherwise

The “Share” button resumed working for me. I can’t account for the variation after a few days, but I apologize to the developer. I also thank him for his response. I have added a deserved 5th star. #1 I really like the honest simplicity of one payment, no password hassle, no ads! No external drives or sites to mess with!#2. The “Share” button stopped working for me, although the other buttons (“Edit”, “Copy”) work fine. Thus no fifth star. #3. The interface is clear and intuitive. #4. The scans are good or pretty good on small jobs like business cards. Whole pages need some cleaning up unless you can hold the camera very, very steady. But the Edit mode tends to suggest the right correction when a misspelled word is clicked on. #5. In sum, worth the money—though I’ll appreciate a working “Share” button.

Best!

Love the app it’s user friendly! This tool is great when you have a-lot of reading for class. When you choose the option READ a robotic voice is weird but once you figure out how to change that function its really cool.

RE: Text Capture is Excellent

Text Capture is one of the best OCR's I've seen in a long time. I notice many of the negative reviews are from people who complain it's not free (hardly an unbiased review).I did a quick scan from a photo and the process was flawless. Attempting the same using TextGrabber by ABBYY, I kept getting "unable to recognize the image" error every time using the same photo.I am very satisfied with this app, and am done searching for any more of this type. Highly recommended!

Good stuff

This is saving me a ton of time. It’s accurate for the 2 pages I have scanned so far. I tried another one before this and did like 5 pages and it was not very accurate at all. Go with this one.

Fantastic!! no complaints!

this ocr has far exceeded my expectations in every way. speed, accuracy, ease of use.i have a very well reviewed desktop scanner, and this iphone ocr beats it in terms of speed hands down - no comparison - and the accuracy seems about equal - both high enough for my use. perhaps one or two errors every 100 characters. i’m a law school student with lots of reading and writing, and this has really changed the way i work. scan text, email editable file to laptop, cut and paste, do whatever you want to do, all seamlessly. no more manual typing to create an editable file. am i going over the top if i were to say that this product has delivered the greatest expectation-to-actual-result positive ratio among anything i’ve ever owned? i don’t think so. for a cup of coffee. when are you coming out with the capability to ocr asian language? that’s what i’m waiting for. you have set a very high standard for yourself.
