Is my image uploaded anywhere?

Which images work best?

Clear, well-lit, straight photos and screenshots of printed text. Blurry photos, tiny text and handwriting give weaker results.

Which languages are supported?

English, Arabic, Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian and more. You can read two languages at once.

Is Image to Text free?

Yes, completely free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many images you read.
