TRY ONE COMPLETE CONVERSION FREE
Choose one image from Photos or Files, paste an image, or use your camera. You can also choose Unlock Text in another app's action sheet.
Get the complete text result. Edit it. Copy it. Share it. Reopen it later. Your first result stays accessible after the free conversion is used.
Failed attempts, cancellations, and images with no readable text do not use your free conversion. The built-in sample does count when it produces a result.

YOUR TEXT STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE
No account to create. No ads. Recognition and document processing happen on your device. Your images and recognized text are not uploaded to us. Purchasing and restoring access require an internet connection.
Your library does not sync or back up. Export important results before removing the app.
GOOD TO KNOW
Recognition works best with clear printed or screen text. Check important words and numbers. Handwriting, blur, glare, and complex layouts can affect accuracy.
Exported text PDFs contain your edited words in a new layout, up to 10 pages. They do not reproduce the original page design. PDF and image tools accept files up to 30 MB each; image groups can total up to 80 MB.
