OCR Copy: Image to Text
Batch scan text from photos
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Select up to 20 photos or screenshots and turn them into one text you can copy. Free, offline, and on device.
OCR Copy turns text in photos, screenshots, and the camera view into text you can copy.
Select up to 20 photos or screenshots at once, and OCR Copy reads them in order and combines the text into one result. The text is copied to your clipboard as soon as it is read, so you can paste it straight into notes, messages, or search.
What you can do:
- Batch: select up to 20 photos or screenshots and get one combined text, in the order you picked them
- Share to OCR Copy: in Photos or right after a screenshot, tap Share and get the text on the spot
- Tables to CSV: when an image has a table, export it as a CSV file, row by row (iOS 26 or later)
- Shortcuts: the "Read Text in Image" action gives you the text of images
- Copy text from a single photo or screenshot
- Take a photo and copy its text
- Live Scan: point the camera and tap the text you want
- Fix or remove only the lines you need before copying
- Keep your scanned text and copy it again later
- Choose the OCR language when Auto does not read it well (Japanese, English, Korean, Chinese, and European languages)
Private by design:
- Text recognition runs on your iPhone with Apple Vision
- Works offline. No account, no tracking, no ads
- Photos and text are never sent to a server
Note: vertical Japanese text and complex layouts may not be read correctly.
