About this app

Nayan turns pages into text you can search, copy and share — right on your phone.

Point the camera at a book, a letter, notes or a receipt. Nayan finds the page, straightens it, cleans it up and reads the text in Bengali (Bangla), Hindi, Arabic or English, even when a page mixes scripts.

NO ACCOUNT. YOUR SCANS STAY ON YOUR PHONE.
• No sign-in, no cloud, no analytics.
• Text is recognised on the device. Your scans are never uploaded.
• Your library stays in the app's private storage.
• Free, with an occasional ad after you finish a scan or an export — never while you scan.

SCAN
• Automatic page detection and perspective correction
• Live mode reads text straight from the viewfinder
• Import photos you already have, or share images to Nayan from other apps
• Cleans up shadows and uneven lighting before reading

READ IN FOUR SCRIPTS
• Bengali / Bangla, Hindi (Devanagari), Arabic (right-to-left) and English
• Detects the script automatically
• Bengali and Arabic use a free one-time language download (about 11–14 MB each), then work offline

YOUR SEARCHABLE LIBRARY
• Group pages into books and documents
• Search every word on every page you have scanned
• Listen to a page with an offline voice

EXPORT AND SHARE
• Searchable PDF — the page image with selectable text
• HTML with correctly shaped Bengali and Hindi text
• Plain text, images and CSV for tables
• Share through any app, only when you choose

Nayan suggests the best format for each page: a searchable PDF for a book page, CSV for a table, text for a note.

Because nothing is stored anywhere else, uninstalling the app deletes your library. Export anything you want to keep.
