I also use Prizmo and Text Detective. The main advantage of Prizmo over Text Detective is that I can OCR a full screen at once. Prizmo is also currently on sale over the Thanksgiving Day weekend. Here's the URL: • Prizmo - Scanning, OCR, and Speech ($4.99 for Thanksgiving weekend, normally lists for $9.99) by Creaceed https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/prizmo-scanning-ocr-speech/id366791896?mt=8 Directly supported OCR languages are English, French, German, Dutch, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Swedish, Danish and Norwegian. I use the Light Detector app to set up Prizmo and other OCR apps. There's also a guide to using Prizmo at the AppleVis site: http://www.applevis.com/guides/guide-using-prizmo-scanning-and-ocr-application-iphone
