On-device text recognition

Read text offline.

Magnify the text first, freeze or capture the clearest view, then recognize printed text without sending the image to a remote OCR service.

How offline OCR works

Magnifier Zoom processes supported OCR recognition on the device. That makes it useful when you want quick text extraction from a receipt, sign, serial label, printed note or document while avoiding a cloud OCR upload step.

What you can do with recognized text

OCR accuracy

OCR is an assistive convenience feature, not a guarantee of perfect transcription. Accuracy can be affected by blur, unusual fonts, curved surfaces, glare, handwriting, low contrast, extreme perspective and damaged print. Always verify important text against the original source.

Privacy

OCR recognition is designed to run offline on-device. Advertising, consent and billing components are separate services described in the Privacy Policy.
