This is going to be a handy little app. I tried it out on different types of documents and books. I was surprised how well it worked and was able to pull the words from a kid's picture book with different fonts

Works great!!!!! Work good on printed text. Hand written texts causes some problems but this is great if you want to quick copy a text document for editing or saving.

Crashed after first use and it doesn't read out loud.
★★☆☆☆
Takes several tries to get a good picture that will convert to text. Read aloud function does not work.
★★☆☆☆
Terrible App First of all, it doesn't work. I have a note 3 and every time I scan, it comes out all gibberish, EVERY TIME. Second, this app didn't take any consideration from people that are hard of seeing. Why would you make the app scan in lanscape only? When taking the picture, at least have it be able to zoom in and easy to navigate so we can actually see and read the text. It's nice that you try to make it READ, but it's not working. Besides, it's not an app for the totally blind because they wouldn't be able to take the picture in the first place. This app is for people that are having a hard time reading small text and it should at least let you zoom in a picture to see text. In fact, that's what I have been doing except it's difficult to take a picture, click on gallery and see text. I can always have auto preview on, but thought this app would make it easy. This is not the case, the app has terrible OCR. 3/19/14 So I update the software. It improved a little, but still a long way to go before being usable.
