Perfect OCR App Reviews

very bad recognition in French. Maybe works better in English?

The best OCR in App store !!!!

Reconhece bem.

Guis, that is a good one. It will do the job, but for 5 stars needs more features. The same price you can get JotNot with alot more features.

After a little research and realizing that Turbo Scan and Perfect OCR are essentially the same scanner with perfect OCR adding the Character recognition software, I am prepared to upgrade my rating to four stars. I have learned when using a dark background and sufficient light that the "edge of page" sensing works very well and I can get straight documents. The product works as described. Color PDFs are dissapointing but, in the description for the Turbo Scan, Pixoft warns you about that. Considering that you are using a hand held camera, the scanner and OCR functions as good as can be expected. Overall, I am very pleased with what you can do with so little.

In my 3g i receiving very bad result.. 10% read, i have following the recomendation, i trying a text already scanning by a real scanner. 50% result.. You cannot use that for scan.. Too bad result Plz new update fix-it

This enables me to scan documents, email them in PDF, and scan the document with OCR. Great idea - simple interface - results arent too stunning but this is about what can be expected from the iPhone camera. Memory errors every time this program is used are annoying. Yes, restarting will fix it but every time I use it??? Also, uploading to Evernote would be a nice feature - just a suggestion - other similar apps do it.

Waste of money. The OCR function of this app does not work at all. I was unable to get this to put together a single sentence without tons of gibberish. I attempted multiple time with different material and app settings without a significant change.

OCR is a hard thing to perfect, this software is pretty amazing all things considered. If you would have told me 10 years ago, that I would be able to OCR and email from the palm of my hand, I wouldnt have believes you. 20 years ago, i would have said, what is OCR? And where is the camera in my startac?

I was skeptical, especially since I have a 3GS with the less-than-magical camera that iPhone 4 owners enjoy. But I scanned a printout of a 3-paragraph PowerPoint slide WITH ZERO ERRORS on my first try -- and I havent looked back since! A bonus use of this excellent app is to "scrape" content off a website or application that doesnt let you copy and paste. Just point your iPhone at the monitor, click, and send the contents to e-mail in seconds!

This app simply does not work.

Crashes doesnt work in low light used it for school and was too slow to scan anything. Good layout and automatically add line breaks where it is assumed to be a line wrap. But never seen a 5.0 scan on any documents. Sorry

I use this app a lot. Definitely worth the $2. But OCR isnt perfect. Better than alternatives but still lacking in speed and quality. Also, would be nice to be able to attach multiple images to an email.

If I could give negative stars I would... You might as well just use your iPhones basic camera the OCR is absolutely useless it will never get a full page of text correct...

Not good at all

For years I have been searching for a portable solution to scan my documents. And for years I have been disappointed with the useless scanning applications available on the iPhone, iPad that take a picture of a paper and give you horrible results. That was until I discovered Turbo scan! This application is the best in the App Store! Ive tried 3 to 4 top-rated scanning applications like scanner Pro which apparently people say is better than Turbo scan. However, I have tested both apps in great detail. And I have concluded turbo scan gives you consistent high-quality scans each time whereas scanner Pro does not! Also Turbo scan has a very simple selection of settings compared to other apps. Taking a scan takes literally 10 seconds. Only thing scanner Pro does better than Turbo scan, is that it has an iPad version of the app whereas Turbo scan does not. However, I still choose Turbo scan for reliable scans each time I need to scan a document on my iPad. I would highly recommend Turbo scan to anybody that is looking for a serious, professional solution to scanning documents on the go! Dont waste your time / money on those expensive pocket scanners that require you to go through so many hassles to get a scan or useless apps such as scanner Pro! My .2 cents. - Rocky Dubb.

Very disappointing. Simple, large text works fairly well. Often, though, the results are jibberish or virtually unusable text. When its free its worth the money. Otherwise not.

The first version works perfectly fine; however, this Pro version is does NOT work properly!!

Waste of money. Can I have my money back?

Whats with all the neg reviews??? I have been looking forever for a decent OCR program. This one works great for me. I think the problem with others is poor picture quality. People you can get good OCR results from low res pics like those from earlier generations of IPhones.
