Uses official Apple document scanner

Text Recognition

Text recognition uses Apple VisionKit framework and gets better with every iOS release thanks to hard work by Apple's engineers. Many languages are supported and can be customized per-scan to get the best possible results.

The app applies custom formatting to recognized pieces of text to try to present in as nice format possible.
