Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

App OCR is an offline OCR reader (or OCR scanner) and a language translator that helps users to extract text in images from gallery or camera in their mobile devices. Users can translate the text to other supported languages if needed. Result of the extracted text and its translation then can be shared with other apps such as gmail, gdrive, etc. that have sharing capability or online storage on the device. OCR text recognition is done locally / offline on the device using its text recognition engine. The subsequent language translation uses online translation services which require an internet connection. OCR's accuracy of recognition is primarily determined by the quality of the text in the image. To achieve a more accurate result, please try to aim and focus your camera properly when taking the picture with text so that you have a clear text in the picture to begin with. App OCR supports multiple major languages including English, Chinese(simplified, traditional, Mandarin, Cantonese), Russian, Spanish, German, French, Korean, Japanese, etc.

App OCR APK: questions and answers

Can I install this APK over the version I already have?

Only if it is signed with the same certificate as the copy on your phone and isn't an older version. If Android says “App not installed”, the certificates differ; uninstalling your copy first works but deletes its data unless it is backed up.

Is the App OCR APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store rates this file Trusted. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is 6eef11eee42a5ebe49d70e98f2265fc3.
