Extract text from photos free (OCR)

Need to copy text from a photo? This free image to text converter uses OCR (optical character recognition) to read the printed words in your pictures β€” book pages, documents, receipts, screenshots, signboards β€” and turns them into text you can copy, edit and share. It reads 120+ languages β€” English, Nepali, Hindi, Chinese, Arabic and many more β€” and mixed pages too: pick a second language when a page uses two scripts. ✨ Enhance photo (on by default) cleans up camera shots in poor light, and the 🎯 Best quality models (also on by default) give the most accurate read on difficult pages.

The OCR engine downloads once (a few MB) the first time you extract, then runs entirely on your device. Your photos never leave your phone or computer.

How to use

  1. Drop a photo into the box above β€” a clear, straight shot of printed text works best.
  2. Pick the language of the text in the photo β€” plus a second one if the page mixes two languages.
  3. Tap πŸ”€ Extract text and wait a few seconds while your device reads the photo.
  4. Edit the result if needed, then tap πŸ“‹ Copy text or ⬇ Download .txt to save it.
