Hi.
Yep, i've given their OCR app a go and to be honest it seems not to
work. It keeps complaining that my phone is not level no matter what
angle i have the phone when the guided scan option is selected. I did
once manage to get to the option to scan by holding my phone virtically,
but when i clicked it it complained that my document wasn't in the frame
despite the fact that i was pointing my camera straight at the sign in
question. i tried various distance amounts as well as various angles to
try and get the document in focus, but there's no audible feedback to
let you know if the document is in the frame, or how to move the camera
to achieve a good image. This brings to mind another question. Although
the Beyo CBS reader you sell has been discontinued, are licenses still
available for purchase? If not, has the discontinued version been made
free for use by Beyo?
All the best,
Mo.

Hi,
Google goggles. And it's not bad. Not perfect, but works.
Did you not try the Georgie OCR app? Thought you were trying Georgie out.
All the best

Hi All.
I would be very interested to hear if anyone has managed to use an OCR
application successfully on the android platform? if so, which one did
you use and how useable/accurate was it?
thanks,
Mo.
