Does what it says I was originally very critical of this app because it does not handle screenshots of other apps very well, but I see now that is not the main purpose described here. I've since discovered the app is excellent at interpreting images in ebooks which is what it was designed for. I still wish it could handle anything I throw at it, so for a more versatile version of this app I would give it a perfect five stars. The developer is very helpful, so I would recommend e-mailing him with any constructive feedback.
★★☆☆☆
Good idea but, plain and simple, it doesn't work. Have installed it several times over the years hoping it may eventually work.
★★☆☆☆
This app is not loading any image file. All it does is to force the phone to go into landscape mode (even though I have landscape mode turned off) and then it freezes the phone with a black screen.
★★☆☆☆
It's misleading The app (if it works) is only for crystal clear pictures you get from e-book, not from your camera! The description and the demo image is misleading.
★★☆☆☆
I haven't used this in a while, but now one app does what this and Chess OCR do and does it better. Shortly after I bought this key it went bad. I can't get a decent scan no matter how I try. Thankfully I found "Chess: scan, play, analyze". It works even when things aren't perfect. Even when Chess OCR worked it was difficult and everything had to be just right. Thanks for your efforts Mr. Roth, but you've been passed up.
