About this app

Turn any image to text in seconds. ocrX is an image to text converter for Android: snap a photo, grab a screenshot, or pull a picture from your gallery, and it reads every word with 99%+ accuracy, ready to copy, edit, and share.

• Take a photo or pick one from your gallery
• Copy the whole result with one tap

Screenshot to text

A recipe in someone's story, an address in a chat, an error message you need to search. If it's on your screen, it's yours.
• Reads screenshots as cleanly as photos
• Doubles as a jpg to text and photo to text converter for anything already saved on your phone
• Receipts, book pages, whiteboards, business cards, street signs: if you can photograph it, ocrX can read it

Handwriting to text

Lecture notes, a recipe card in your grandmother's looping cursive, the whiteboard after a meeting. Handwriting OCR turns pen and ink into words you can actually use.
• Reads handwritten notes as well as print
• Same automatic language detection as printed text

Image to Word, PDF, or wherever it needs to go

I am impressed. Even though my base image included a table format with a watermark, this app successfully and accurately captured text from a phone image with very minor misidentification of characters that I was very easily able to correct. I simply copied the output sent into an email and edited later. Obviously it didn't retain the tabular layout, (which I didn't expect it to) but the text was output in logical blocks of text, that I could have reconstructed the table had that been my goal.

What’s new

New: search! That receipt from March? The Wi-Fi password you scanned off a café flyer? Type any word from it and ocrX finds the scan, with the match highlighted.

ocrX also learned 21 new languages, including Polish, Hindi, Thai, Hebrew, and Filipino. That makes 30, and it still can't order coffee in any of them.

Plus a handful of fixes too small to brag about.
