Text Grab: Offline OCR Notes

Text Grab turns a photo into words you can copy, fix and find again, without the photo ever leaving your phone. GRAB THE WORDS • Point the camera at a page, label, whiteboard or screen, or pick a photo from your gallery • Open a PDF and grab the text from its first page • Recognition runs on the device with Google's ML Kit (Latin script, tuned for English and Afrikaans); no upload, no waiting FIX, COPY, SHARE • Correct a word the camera got wrong before you save • Copy the whole grab or share it to any app with the normal share sheet • Every grab is saved with its date so last week's recipe or serial number is one search away A LIBRARY YOU CAN SEARCH • Home lists every grab you kept; type a word and the list narrows instantly • Everything is searched on the device: your grabs, your photos and your words stay here YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR DEVICE • No account, no cloud, no sign-in: everything is stored in a local database • Export a JSON backup to your Documents folder and import it on a new phone • Works fully offline ADS The free app shows a small banner on the home screen and an occasional full-screen advert, plus a catalogue of our other local-first apps. These requests carry no personal data and nothing about your photos or grabbed text. Text Grab does not translate, parse receipts, read handwriting-only pages, sync to the cloud or walk every page of a long PDF. It grabs words from a picture and keeps them where you can find them.
