Not free?

Not free? ... and translations is horribly incorrect. Adobe Scan app is free and is mostly correct.


Barely even works
Abbiellegurlly

Every time I scanned a pic, the app would keep on saying stuff like “Unknown Language.” I tried at least 10 times, and all 10 of them failed! Though, I like your attempt, and that’s why it’s not 1 star. I changed my brightness and everything, and it would still not work! I tried both ways, and none of them actually worked. The closest translation I got was when I scanned it regularly. But 5 trys later, I have to pay for it! Yay.


Good apps

Update rendered app useless
NMotola

TextGrabber After the update the app is useless. It can't translate JPEGS I tried different tabs with different photos, and not only did it give me alien texts, I found myself x-ing out ads as if I was playing a videogame. Very disappointing, and deleted.
