Hello, There have been lots of discussions on this list regarding OCR-scanning app. With so many of us, you may get dozens of opinions of which one works best for some and not for others. Personally, I always seem to go back to "Say Text." I have tried many of the apps, with Sandy Tompkins being the OCR Queen of this list. She seems to have a knack for getting excellent results all of the time. When an app becomes free or for a reduced price, grab it and try it out. I am sure that you will find one that you can manage better than another OCR app. That's what I have found. JMO.

Here is a link: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/textgrabber-+-translator/id438475005?mt=8 Remember, none of the apps will perform as well as a flat bed scanner and the O C R programs are not as powerful as something like Open Book on a desktop computer. F.Y.I. A great resource for accessible apps is Apple Vis. Here is a link: http://www.applevis.com Good luck, and welcome to the group!
