About Handwriting to Text: AI OCR
Turn any page of handwriting into clean, editable text in seconds. Handwriting to Text uses advanced AI OCR to read handwritten notes, notebooks, journals, whiteboards, and printed documents — then lets you edit, translate, save as PDF, and share anywhere.
Whether you are a student digitising lecture notes, a teacher grading assignments, or a professional capturing meeting minutes, this app removes the pain of retyping. Point your camera, tap once, and your handwriting becomes typed text you can actually use.
✨ WHY YOU WILL LOVE IT
• Powerful AI OCR — powered by Google Gemini for high accuracy on real, everyday handwriting, not just neat print
• Works for handwriting AND printed text — notebooks, letters, receipts, forms, textbooks, whiteboards
• Batch scan multiple pages — capture up to 20 pages at once and let the app organise them into a single folder in scan order
• Convert notes to PDF — export any scan or full folder as a clean, shareable PDF
• Translate on-device — translate recognised text into 20+ languages using offline Google ML Kit models, so it works without internet after one-time download
• Auto-detect language — the app identifies the language of your scan and suggests the right translation target
• Edit anything — every recognised text is fully editable before you save, copy, or share
• Folders + trash — organise multi-page batches, restore deleted scans within 30 days
• Backup & restore — export all your notes and folders as a JSON file to Google Drive or any storage
