While I really appreciate the more modern clean interface compared to other apps like this, it unforunately doesn't seem very good at what it does. Maybe it is for simple straight forward images but I had a lot of bullet points in my pdf file (both with check boxes and numbers and letters) and it strangely didn't know what to do with it and would put things out of order.

Used to be SO good! Useless now. Last update- if you change the original selection block, the column selection cuts off the left most data and will not let you move the box to adjust Newer version I updated 12/4/23 Unusable. I went to files from open a picture. It was grayed out and would not open I went to camera. It defined text columns all over that did not match the data layout. Would not adjust the columns to select data. If I could rate this a zero I would

Great app! Square box quick and easy to position on the page for getting all the text selected, if necessary. Does an amazing job of "sharpening" and straightening the text, recognizes columns. You can create a PDF from some pages, and then add more pages later if you wish. The developer is super and responded unbelievably quickly, worked with me until a problem was fixed with an update. The ads didn't bother me, but I bought the ad-free version just to help support a good program/developer.
