Image to Text: Photo OCR Scan

Capture or pick any photo and extract clean, copy-ready text in seconds. Works fully offline, recognises 18+ languages, and never sends your images anywhere.

Turn any photo into editable text in seconds.

Image to Text: Photo OCR Scan is the fastest way to pull words off a page, sign, receipt, slide, or screenshot. Point the camera, pick a photo from your library, and the app reads the text and hands it back ready to copy, share, or save.

Built around Apple's on-device Vision framework, recognition runs locally on your iPhone. That means it's fast, it works without an internet connection, and your images never leave your device. No accounts, no uploads, no servers, no analytics.
