Adobe Scan is a free OCR text recognition application released by Adobe. Like other text scanning applications, you can use your phone’s camera to capture documents, select the recognition area, and finally convert the text in the image into text format; you can also choose not to convert the text in the image but just enhance the contrast of the text. Note that you need to have an Adobe ID before using it. Adobe Scan is completely free, and you can log in to your account to sync with Creative Cloud, allowing real-time feedback to your PC.
