The BEST of 10!!
Soo. I have a LOT of scanning apps. a lot. And many of those claim to be "perfect" for OCR. Ive purchased many because I had never found "the one" that works for my needs (I look for fast/ACCURATE ocr and fast reliable (not glitchy like DocScanner) auto edge detection/BAtCH OCR, scan quality. Ease of use) and that is unbelievably hard to find.
Just today I decided, no more nonsense, I would sit down with each app I own and find the BEST. And guess what? surprise surprise! This app beat out all the other big names I have!! I was shocked because I had gave up on "perfect OCR" long ago because when it first came out it was abysmal. They SURE have improved the OCR recognition since then !! Important: use triple pic for good OCR results...it makes all the difference.
Id say, if your looking into OCR apps ...dont just go by 5 star reviews. People appreciate different things. For example, Ive noted ppl often comment on the portability of their scanner compared to big office scanners. And, while thats a nice feature, its not uncommon. We have smart phones. Lets move on. Whats the BEST scanner app!?? Ive compared my APPS to find the best, most efficient, 2012 HARDCORE OCR scanner....and to date this is it. Not perfect...but pretty close..and 10 times BETTER than all the others I waisted time (and dollars) on.
Thanks PerfectOCR. You are now my number one!!
Features: 90% ocr accuracy with iPhone 4s in fair light with a large glossy textbook with pictures.
Decently quick Batch scanning. Just ok edge detection.
(fastest might be "FasterScan"...but no built in OCR with that one. I havent tried uploading to google docs like that one requires. Best edge detection Ive found is "Doc Scan"...same issue of uploading to get OCR though)
Easy tap-to-edit
Can OCR more than one page (if you only need 1 page OCRed, try "Abby Text Grabber. Its 98% accurate. Amazing really...just limited)
