Great app with one major flaw

This app is fantastic, but it has occasional problems capturing numbers. A killer use case for this is taking pictures of recipes from books or magazines and dropping the captured text into a recipe app. I’m finding that it usually works without fail, but sometimes it will misread fractions (and on very rare occasion miss numbers altogether.) For example, if the recipe calls for “1/8 teaspoon salt” it might get read as “1/2 teaspoon salt” which, you can imagine, will ruin the recipe. I’ve learned to inspect all numbers in the ingredients and directions to make sure they are correctly captured. If it weren’t for this time consuming manual step, this app would be a 6 on a scale of 1-5. Words are almost never misread, although it would be nice if it could capture common foreign letters. You’ll see things like “jalape?o” or “saut?” for jalapeño and sauté, for example. Along the same lines, it would be nice if it would capture the degree character. It will capture as “Preheat the oven to 350?F.” I can overlook those issues, but misreading numbers is a serious problem.

Love it, best picture and integrated note taking app

Love taking a picture and sending it to one note easily. The pictures are small and accurate.

After scanning documents why it is keeping a local copy?

Ideally this should upload to the location I would like to.

Sharp

The documents that I want to send to someone are very clear, straightened and professional looking.
