Description
Hi! This is Shalin Shah — creator of Voice. I’m a senior studying computer science at the University of California, Berkeley. Voice has been a project of mine since I was in high school, and I’ve been working hard to make it better over the last 6 years.
Voice was hand-crafted for people like you. It can help you quickly read items like product labels and magazine pages in your day-to-day. But you can also use it for more advanced reading like mail or books.
My goal with Voice was to create the most simple and intuitive interface to help you read things. Here are some features that I hope are helpful.
OCR:
Voice’s OCR engine is perhaps one of the best in the world. You no longer need to worry about low lighting and bad focus, Voice corrects it automatically and gives you pixel-perfect accuracy every time. Voice can even read scribbles and handwritten text with incredible accuracy.
Standard Photo Capture:
The most basic way to use Voice is by simply tapping the button labeled by VoiceOver as “Camera. Button” This will take a picture. Then simply tap the button labeled “Next. Button” and Voice will perform OCR on your image and read it aloud.
Voice Control:
Alternatively, you can control the app using your voice if you find that tapping buttons shake your camera. Simply say “capture” to snap a picture, and “read” to start processing the image.
Batch Mode:
Batch mode is enabled by default. To read more than one page, just keep taking photos using the “Camera. Button” or by saying the word “capture” many times. Voice will read all the documents one after another.
Scan Tone:
Good OCR detection does not depend on the corners of a document to be visible. But if corner detection is important to you, Scan Tone plays a tone when it sees all 4 corners visible. The tone gets louder or softer depending on the placement, tilt, and orientation of your phone relative to your document. A louder scan tone means better visibility of your document.
Real-Time Mode:
Voice also supports real-time scanning. Toggle this on, then simply hold your phone in front of any document with text and Voice will read it out loud in real-time. Voice also automatically turns on flash when it detects sub-par lighting and turns it off for objects that would glare.
Reading Voices & Languages:
Voice supports 47 languages and offers 180 reading voices. 52 voices are the standard iOS voices, and 128 of them are premium AI-generated voices with extremely fluent intonations. You can adjust your language, reading voice, and speaking rate in Settings.
Photo Library:
The photo library picker lets you pick multiple images at a time from any of your albums.
Offline Mode:
Voice now fully works without wifi. If privacy is a concern or you don’t care for that extra bit of OCR quality, then feel free to use Voice in offline mode. You can turn it on in settings.
Saving & Exporting:
Once your document has been scanned, it takes one tap to copy your detected OCR text to your clipboard, export it as an accessible PDF, export it as a Plain Text file, or simply export all the images you captured.
Importing:
Voice allows you to import both images and PDFs from other apps. It automatically detects the document format and performs OCR.
VoiceOver"
The entire app was crafted with VoiceOver in mind, so everything is fully accessible.
App Size:
Voice has only a 6.9-megabyte app size.
Pricing:
You get 20 free scans per month. You can use those scans in either Short Text Mode or Standard Capture Mode. Once those 20 scans are up, you must purchase the Elite plan for $9.99 per month or the Believer plan for $99.99 per year. You save $20 a year, or 17%, by upgrading to the Believer plan. We are committed to keeping Voice OCR open for scholars and others lacking financial stability. Fill out this short form to tell us about your situation at http://bit.ly/VoiceOCR.

- Automatic language detection! The OCR will automatically find and detect the language of your text, so you can read documents that contain text with multiple languages! Although the default text-to-speech doesn't fluently switch between languages, if you let VoiceOver do the reading, it can fluently switch between languages.
- Improved accessibility. Moving VoiceOver over certain buttons and elements now give more helpful hints and make it easier to figure out how to use certain features.
- added Hebrew to the list of languages that the default Text-to-speech can speak in.
- Export the text and image to other apps or save it to notes!
CRAZY CRAZY UPDATES TO THE APP.
Voice was completely remade from the ground up, with the best and latest technology. The OCR quality is spectacular, even on completely distorted and badly focused photos.

Can give extremely accurate field of view reports when it detects a document in front of you. It works in over 30 major languages and gives you the most powerful OCR reading tools right in your pocket.
But don't take my word for it, give Voice a download and see for yourself!

- A new feature called book mode. This allows you to take multiple pictures and have each of them read, one after another. The coolest part is that it takes the same amount of time to process, because Voice does it in the background, where you won't be bothered.
- Improved Accessibility. This means that some buttons have been removed to make the process from taking a picture to listening much faster and with less taps on the screen.
- Customizable Speaking Rate. The rate at which the app reads is now changeable. Now there is capability to have the text be read fast, medium, or slow.
- Restart, Previous, Next. There are new buttons that allow you to navigate through the pages you want to be read. Basically like media controls on a music player, but it skips pages instead of songs.
- New User-Interface. Hey, we are giving you all these new features, why not a fresh new look, too!
- Compatible with iOS 8 and the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
- Squashed lots of bugs and improved the processing speed.
P.S. We are constantly reading reviews to try and improve this product, so keep writing reviews!
Stay tuned, massive updates are coming!

coors928,
Very accurate for what it does
I like this app because it gives more accurate information than all the other apps
Tiffany J. Kim,
Impressive OCR Capabilities
I downloaded this last night because I had been trying to read a Ramen packet that I had gotten in a subscription box. Well, not only was I able to read the info about the nutritional facts and the ingredients, but this engine was also able to read the Chinese information on the package as well. I have since been able to read information on a package of sour gummy candies, a bottle of kombucha, and a package of tuna burgers that I received from my community supported fishery. This app has been consistent and reliable and has provided the clearest scans thus far. Additionally, I am grateful for the voice-activated ability to capture pictures and have them read. This allows for a hands-free experience. I'm glad to have found out about Voice OCR and will definitely be joining up as a Believer as soon as I am able to do so. Thank you for creating this extremely accurate and reliable app. As an aside, thanks for the cute and quirky retro videogame music when the magic is happening after the photos have been taken! It's icing on the cake for me.
are Casey430,
One of the best scanner/reading apps
I have to say this is one of the best scanning, detecting and reading apps. I’d love that you get a certain amount of scans per month. This is a very accurate app. Reading mail is really easy with this service. My only hope is that it continues to improve in accuracy with the increasing changes in technology.
lovestar78,
Amazing OCR App!
I like how accurate this app reads documents that it scans. I have had really good results and I like that I can use my voice to do most of the actions on this app. It comes with some really awesome features and I love the different invoices I can use so I definitely recommend this app for many people. Thank you for making such an amazing app for me.
moosybaby,
To me not worth it
Problem I have yes voice OCR. And I want to know why I have to delete this app off my phone, and order for it to work? And I paid for it to see if it will work properly. I am thinking about deleting it completely. Until everything is correct! I am not happy with this app. LJ
HaileL,
Works As Advertised
Just finished using this app for the first time, and I think it works extremely well. The text captured is nearly perfect, if not perfect. There doesn’t appear to be any typos whatsoever in the document being read. I have noticed that sometimes the voice commands don’t work when you’re trying to take a picture or read the document, but you have buttons that you can utilize to take the picture when the voice commands do not work. Note: I found that you need to say “Take Picture” as the voice command to capture text. One potential idea for a future update might be to allow users the ability to access links in the document. This may give you the ability to call numbers that are in the document or go to a specific webpage. I definitely will be using this app more in the future!
iHackYou,
great app for the blind
this app is one of the best apps ever built for the blind. it’s completely accessible and has got a lot of incredible features. this app truly knocked it out of the park!
FlyingOffThe Handle,
Too much out there for free!
Not worth the price.
Quality isn’t better tha the free apps, and other paid apps you get more for your not easily obtained funds.

Bad reading
It sounds like Joe Biden is talking. It took a normal Sentence and changed it all up
Crunch1,
For nominal free app for the blind. Period
I love that this app will detect the four corners of a Page, making it easy to lighten up the camera to take a picture. Great for people that have low vision or are totally blind Best of all it doesn't cost $99 like the other app that's offered for blind people as the end-all dual. This app has gotten me through our Sunday school class when I was able to read the handout in real time. Too bad I didn't have more time to read the handout. Keep up the good work. As far as the speed that probably depends on your network connection. As far as it being terrible you've got to be kidding it's an OCR scanner and it's freee :-). I would probably pay for this app if I had to. Because when it comes to accessibility on the fly it is important to me. But not 100 bucks.
