Outdated :It cannot even recognize printed letters in size 30 with perfect light and black on white paper. It's as worthy as a shoe without a sole. Edit: it has improved a lot. Due to dev reply I checked again and was positively surprised. It still needs correction but we are working with almost complete sentences now. Keep up the good work.

Love this app, but am having issue with scanning documents in German. The option to switch languages doesn't appear until after I have already scanned the doc, and by that time German characters, such as: ß and ö were replaced with an English capital B and a regular o, it was too late to fix it other than to manually go through the entire document, something that took longer than to just transcribe the whole thing in the first place.

Used to be SO good! Useless now.

I went to files from open a picture. It was grayed out and would not open I went to camera. It defined text columns all over that did not match the data layout. Would not adjust the columns to select data. If I could rate this a zero I would
