Additionally, Prizmo Go provides rich interactions with the captured text. After shooting, text from the original picture is revealed, and swiping through it allows fast and accurate text selection directly from the image. Selected text can then be read aloud, or you can tap to browse to any printed website address, call phone numbers, trigger Mail app from an email address, or even reveal physical address in Apple Maps and initiate navigation to that place.
Prizmo Go comes with enhancements specifically built for VoiceOver, in addition to spoken guidance prior to shooting. That, combined with its text-to-speech capabilities, make it a great companion in case you need help reading printed documents.
Note: Prizmo Go won't let you create PDF documents. If that's what you need, please refer to the standard version of Prizmo.

Do t waste your money
qwertyyucfnrfjc
Do t even waste your money with this stupid app. Mind we’ll use google translate . It’s much better and don’t need to pay any money
Best OCR function & accuracy
Andi.Ball
I take a lot of screenshots with text. I like to categorize them using that text. It is so much easier to get a program to recognize that text from my images than to re-type it. To this end, I’ve tried a lot of OCR text recognition apps. Comparatively, this app has more features, is faster, and performs more accurately than any of the other OCR programs I’ve tried, to date. Add in the user-friendly interface that this program offers, and it is bar-none a cut above the rest. The developers have made an essential tool to edit and sort photos with text recognition. This app even helps me organize my PDF files into logical folders. This is one of my most coveted apps and I treasure it for all the time it saves me. Good job dev! ** I am not getting paid for this review. I have no relation to the developers, and I am not a part of any promotional offer. This is a real review, made out of genuine appreciation.
Handwriting OCR is inadequate
the gtra1n
Just that. Handwriting OCR has been inadequate. Even writing in large block print with no punctuation, the app produces nonsense. Charging for this service implies competence, and there’s no professional competence to the handwriting OCR here.
Text scan not accurate waste of $8
supaloudone

NOT FREE

Unless you only need to copy 3/4 of one line of what you need copied! anymore than that, you have to pony up cash.
Great for dyslexics

This is a great app. I recommend to my clients to help their children with text disabilities. I didn’t give it a 5 because I’m not tech savvy and it took me a while to use. But still love it!!!!
Can only read one page at a time!
Takeoutchick
I have vision problems and use this app to read long articles and book chapters. Usually they’re more than 1 page, and I have to keep repeating the photo, scan, and OCR steps for every page after it reads the page. If I want to review the page at a later time, I also have to repeat the photo, scan, and OCR steps. Developer: please note. I would be happy to give you five stars if there were a way to fix this.
