Handwriting To Text Recognizer

i like handwriting notes but much prefer storing and using them digitally but i’ve had minimal success with this kind of software in the past, especially because my handwriting is a bit of a mess. so i downloaded the 6 best rated apps with otc that i could find and tried them all on the same short 4x6 page of notes that i had done my best to write legibly. i was losing hope after literally all of the others produced a mess of garbled letters that weren’t even enough in number to make up half of the page i’d scanned. seeing as this app had less reviews and was clearly not as popular as the others i thought surely it wouldn’t do any better, but all i had to do was open the app and snap a photo and it returned a nearly flawless recreation of my notes into text. and then it did the same with the several other pages i proceeded to scan. there were small, single letter sorts of errors here and there but all easily fixable and minor enough that they didnt even interfere with understanding the notes if i left them as they were. it even managed to recognize my extremely sloppy star symbols and make them asterisks. i dont usually bother with reviews but i am just so happy with this app! (im currently just using the fully free version but may very well upgrade if i wind up using it as frequently as i suspect i will. but the ads are pretty unobtrusive so i dont even mind them as of yet)

I have been looking FOR AGES for an app that could help me with the MOUNDS AND MOUNDS of handwritten notes, ideas, research, etc. that I have lying around my house in boxes, file cabinets, folders, and stuck to my wall. And let me tell you... THIS IS THE APP TO GET THINGS DONE!! I have excellent handwriting... normally. But when I get an idea for my book or new OC, I don’t have time to be neat or even legible. I just scribble as fast as the thought/idea/eureka moment hits me and hope my hand can keep up with my new revelation to end all revelations. So you can only imagine the state of these notes. I honestly thought no handwriting recognition app would be able to help me... but then I found this one and I can honestly say, I’m BEYOND impressed. It’s not perfect, but BY GOD DOES IT GET AT LEAST 85-95% OFF THE WORDS. FIRST TRY! And THAT, my friend, is an app worth keeping around!

I have about two months worth of handwritten notes that I needed to transcribe for a book I’m trying to finish writing by the end of the year. My laptop is currently on it’s way back to the manufacturer for repairs which meant about a two week delay was in my future. When I heard (and prayed) that such a technology existed where you can do this I checked it out. For me, if the app isn’t user friendly and comprehensive right away I’m done. This app blew my mind. It was simple, quick and, amazingly, almost completely accurate on every hand written page I had. I was thinking “no way this thing is going to be able to figure out my chicken scratch” but it proved me wrong. I had very few corrections to make but that’s more because of his sloppy my handwriting is than anything else. Then saving/transferring to Google Drive where I’m keeping the rest of the notes I already have for my book was cake. I don’t think you could ask for a more perfect app for this particular need.
