Description

From the listing uploaded by “split-store”.

We've all taken pictures of important texts, maybe dates, notices and phone numbers. Ever wondered how to extract text from screen-shots? And we've all also had the problem of having to write them down later or manually type the numbers into the phone app. Textify is the app you need! Click pictures and Textify scans them for text so that you can copy, use and share!

Textify 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 Textify APK safe?

No one can promise that a file is safe, but some things can be checked. The source store flagged this file with a security warning. After downloading, check that the file's MD5 is fb74b4bd2738f3ddcf4910b6c9bc2226.
