TextGrabber + Translator App - Mobile Scanner for IPhone or IPad

TextGrabber + Translator App - Mobile Scanner for IPhone or IPad | Leveling the playing field with apps | Scoop.it
From itunes.apple.com - November 3, 2012 5:15 PM

"TextGrabber + Translator turns your iPhone into a multifunctional mobile scanner with translation capability."

 

An inexpensive app that can actually turn an iPhone and IPad into a scanner. You simply take a picture of a document with your device and the app uses Optical Character Recognition to create an editable text file. Just take a picture of the text, and you can immediately edit it or translate, share via e-mail and SMS, or post directly to your account at on Facebook, Twitter and Evernote.

 

Not only that, but it can translate documents from more than 40 different languages. This app can also be very useful for anyone who prefers or needs to read (and manipulate) digital text documents rather than print documents.

 

One more app that is leveling the playing field!
