About Prizmo Go › Scan Text + OCR
Additionally, Prizmo Go provides rich interactions with the captured text. After shooting, text from the original picture is revealed, and swiping through it allows fast and accurate text selection directly from the image. Selected text can then be read aloud, or you can tap to browse to any printed website address, call phone numbers, trigger Mail app from an email address, or even reveal physical address in Apple Maps and initiate navigation to that place.
Prizmo Go comes with enhancements specifically built for VoiceOver, in addition to spoken guidance prior to shooting. That, combined with its text-to-speech capabilities, make it a great companion in case you need help reading printed documents.
"Prizmo Go is the perfect example of how an app category can be reinvented with fresh approaches and modern tech."
— Federico Viticci (MacStories)
"By far this app is hands-down the most culturally inclusive app for individuals with visual deficits AND typical vision."
— Bridging Apps
"Prizmo Go does a fantastic job of recognizing text, specifically now with new machine learning features where the app better understands the gutter of a physical book."
— Josh Ginter (The Sweet Setup)

Better and better
I bought an early version years ago, and didn’t find it much better than the other OCR apps at the time. But Prizmo Go kept improving as an app, and I got better at using its capabilities. Now it’s my go-to app for extracting text from just about anywhere. And it’s right there in the palm of my hand. [I have the Pro subscription]
