TextSniper - OCR, Copy & Paste

PDF, Screen & Image to text

View

TextSniper is the fastest way to copy uncopyable text, wherever it may be: in photos, screenshots, PDFs, websites, videos, online presentations or apps.

What we love: TextSniper works just like the built-in screenshot tools in macOS. Press Shift > Command > 2, then select the area of the screen containing the text you want to copy. That’s it! A friendly thumbs-up indicates that the text is in your Clipboard, ready for pasting.

If you can draw a box over text, you can copy it.

Quick tip: TextSniper can also copy URLs, the text embedded in QR codes and barcode numbers. And because the app supports Continuity Camera in macOS, you can use your iPhone or iPad camera to capture text right to your Mac.

Meet the creator: Valerijs Boguckis, a self-taught developer from Latvia, came up with the idea for TextSniper while watching a tutorial on YouTube and being frustrated that he couldn’t copy a link shown in the video.
