Textify overview
Text recognition (OCR) with mind-blowing quality finally made easy, super efficient, and confidential (no server, your data stays on your device).
Textify analyzes images (or PDFs), recognizes text, and creates PDF files with the text integrated such that the files are searchable. Or you can simply copy the text or export to a .txt file. Very useful and powerful. Integrates with Siri Shortcuts for automation.
Key features:
- Select any images or PDF as input. Or scan with your iPhone/iPad and have the scan automatically imported into Textify.
- Recognize text in many languages. Super accurate.
- Output as .PDF (searchable) or .TXT
- The created PDF has the text integrated and can thus be searched, copy/pasted, selected...
- Define OCR zones for columns recognition
- Edit results before exporting to adapt as desired
- Choose the output file quality, apply filters on the image
- Instant output file size preview
- Works offline, no server, 100% on device
- SIRI SHORTCUTS integration: Textify adds useful Siri Shortcuts actions. Example: Convert a PDF to a searchable PDF directly from the Finder (Quick Action).
- Batch convert to searchable PDF directly from the Finder!
- Smart filename: define a pattern from date/time/text to automatically name the output files
Your privacy matters! No server, no internet connection is required. Your data is safe.

Version: 5.1.3
I'm using it for 1.5 years. It is excellent. I tried many in App Store. Textify stands out as the very best. Highly recommend.

SUPERB.
Best in class.
Free version leaves watermark on PDF plus text output (it will also output just text, with no watermark), but it is well worth getting life pro version if you are likely to use a lot

Very good application. Does the job very well for extracting text from images. Very easy and the extracted text is almost perfect. Free version leaves a line of text which can be erased in a second. Upgraded version is about $20.

Whose OCR engine are your using? It would help us considering buying to provide the user manual. Can I draw out zones and reorder them? Does it handle small font sizes? Fully unicode supported?
