FAQ
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything is processed in your browser; nothing leaves your device.
Does it read handwriting?
It works great with printed text and screenshots; handwriting results are hit-and-miss.
Why is the first run slower?
The OCR engine and language (about 6 MB) download once; after that it is fast.
