Frequently asked questions
- What kind of photos work best?
- Sharp, well-lit photos where the text is straight and high-contrast. Blurry or angled shots reduce accuracy.
- Does it read handwriting?
- It's built for printed text. Neat print may work; cursive handwriting is unreliable with any free OCR.
