Finicky. I am so thankful for this app because I have so much reading in grad school. I can scan chapters of my books and upload to the voice dream reader. However, if I try to scan too fast, the app will shut down and I will lose most or all of the pages I am in the process of scanning. This is extremely frustrating, as it takes so long to scan items when the app keeps shutting off. Also, the accuracy of reading seems to depend heavily on how well you took the scan (must be exactly straight on). If the page is curved in any way it usually messes up how voice dream reader reads through the text.

Voice dream scanner. I think it’s a very good app seems to work better than the other ones that I have on my phone all right it works just as well as voice stream of Reader and I don’t have the rider but I’ve got the voice dream reader and it works very well. Thank you Leslie Ferrell.

Accurate, simple, and to the point. The accuracy is the first thing I love about this app. The speed is the second specially with batch mode. But ththe PDF import and OCR has to be the coolest. Love that I can use it with the voices from Voice Dream Reader and that we got the ability to bring scans into the library. This app is picking up stuff that other OCR apps built from the ground app for blind users are not.

Scanning software very disappointing. I had high hopes when I read reviews and thought that a paid product would have some good features. Scanning with this app is difficult. Very few options. A major disappointment is the INABILITY to EDIT. After a scan is taken, there is no way to correct mistakes made by the app. I really wanted this to work. Just very frustrating

An excellent print reader with an unfortunate and disgusting name. A horrible choice for the name! A shame to mar a great app with such a disgusting title. This is an outstanding app which always works. It is feature rich, and I have found nothing that it cannot read correctly. It is impressively fast, allows me to read large or small documents, allows me to save them wherever I want, or to share them when that is necessary. Updates always add good things, never take away or break anything.

Very nice app. The two things I would like to have would be that the app would not talk over the scanned materials at the beginning of the reading and I wish column reading would be possible. Otherwise, I would give the app a TRIPLE. A plus.

Photos a problem. I like it but I'm currently trying to read a book that has photos embedded in the text and it always seems to select the photo instead of the text, so I have to manually re-adjust the outlines every page or two. Is there a work-around or option to have it ignore pictures? Thanks

Helpful in hundreds of ways. This is One of a few apps I use daily. Why? I like things that just work simply and reliably. voice Dream Scanner has a simple but powerful interface that makes reading things, all kinds of things, very fast and easy. Today, I have used it to read a piece of mail I received, identify a bottle of lotion I was given as a gift, identify several cans of fruit to find pineapple for a fruit salad, and read several pages from a magazine, an article that was suggested by a friend. I also used it to read the directions on the package of frozen food where the barcode scanner in Seeing AI failed to recognize the product. I own several scanning apps including the very expensive one put out by NFB. This is the scanning app that does the job for me nearly every time with no fuss and no friction. It's funny to me that this app costs a little over five dollars while the NFB app cost $100. This app works, without crashing, and without breaking the bank.

Best scan and read app yet. I love the fact that PDFs that are saved from scans show the scanned image and have searchable text making them accessible to screen reader users and sighted people alike. Over all this app yields the most accurate text recognition I have seen. It has a simple user interface, works well in low light. End it doesn’t require a subscription though I’d pay the $5.99 again.

The best scanner i have found for the iPhonE. The best scanner i have found for the iPhone! So easy to use and fast. And, of course very accurate! Love the Reader as well. Thank you Voice Dream team!

App Does Not Work-Perhaps Paid Reviewers. Not that accurat .Very confused by all the five star reviews. I have tried this in a variety of light settings, purchased both this app and Voice Dream Reader, hoping they would be useful for my college studying, but the app is not very accurate for pages. It skips around and was reading the page number after the first line of the paragraph. Just bought it today and if I could I would definitely want a refund. Do not have that much money and was hoping that this would be useful and be worth it and it isn’t. I am wondering the competitor speech scanner is better...but that one is 140 to use for a year so hesitant.

awesome App! Document. Great app! I really like The scanning in the edge detection, better than any other blindness OCR App out there. I like how you can import your Photos into the app. The app is easy to use, you can even use a scanning stand that some companies offer where you can place your book on the table, your phone on top of the scanning stand, and you can scan the book quickly using the auto capture feature. Will definitely be using this once I start college. Wonder how it will read math equations though.

I’m impressed. I figured this would be a useless feature. But it works great! The only issues I’ve had are when taking a picture of a page in a book, there tends to be a curve and it doesn’t always pick up the text in the right order. But if it’s a flat page or you can make the book pages lie flat, it does an amazing job!

Scanner is prone to Crash. I love this technology and have been using it for a while, however this is prone to crash. I think this is something the developers are trying to remedy. If not, then I would be remiss to not mention it to folks putting down a few dollars. If you are patient, it scans and pairs well with VoiceDream. But man, again, does it crash. Just turn off the auto detect and wait till the page fully loads. Otherwise, you are scanning that page again. If they remedy the crash, I would give this a 5 easy. But they should be past that.

Horrible for books. The app is horrible for books. The automatic capture can’t read the edges of a hardcover book and when it doesn’t read the text correctly. The yellow boxes are all uneven and thus isn’t reliable. It takes A LOT of work to get it right. This app is only useful for text on flat surfaces and doesn’t read well even if there’s the slightest curvature on the paper, which is common when snapping pictures of pages in a book.

Wonderful fast app with interface with voice dream reader for PDF reading and scanning. I love this app, for which I was a beta tester. It is fast, does well on pages that other apps don’t touch, and does it all on my phone. It’s not complicated. I have a much more expensive app which is going to be deleted from my phone thanks to this one. Great job!

Andy t.. I am a totally blind mechanic and this is the only app I have found to consistently read the papers on the side of the doors on cars and trucks so that I can could obtain the serial number to put in my scanner I have tried several apps before this one and a lot more expensive ones and this is the only one that I have found to read them so so far I'm giving it a five right now if I could give it a 10 right now I would

Help please. Hello everyone, my name is Faith Switzer. I depend on these apps to complete my schoolwork and for much more. The Voice Dream Pack, Reader, and Writer work very well for me, however, I have been having a problem and I was wondering if anyone else has been having the same problem and how they felt with it. My problem is that my Scanner app deletes important documents all on its own. I clear nonessential documents before taking pictures of new ones and it picks random times to delete my whole library of scanned pages. If anyone is having this problem or has had it in the past, will you please let me know how you fixed. This would be greatly appreciated. Faith Switzer

Disappointed in this app. This is harsh but I'm actually disappointed I paid for this. I need to read cards, paint bottles, and cosmetic packaging. It seems to not like shiny surfaces, elegant font, or around objects. I feel I take 5 to 10 shots before I get one that isn't either gibberish or blank in translation. Sometimes I can parse what it says but not all the time. Even plain documents are not great. Whole sections will be nonsense in the read out.

Love it!. I just downloaded it and ran a couple of tests, and it works amazingly well. It’s especially great when used (as designed) in conjunction with the Boice Dream app. My only suggestions for improvement are 1) Allow it I just downloaded it and ran a couple of tests, and it works amazingly well. It’s especially great when used (as designed) in conjunction with the Boice Dream app. My only suggestions for improvement are 1) Allow it to work on photographs previously on my device; and 2) The optional tone that can be played when an edge is detected could be a lot more quiet and subtle and pleasant and still be equally effective. It would be much more effective, actually, because I wouldn’t feel compelled to turn off that option. Let me suggest two tones: one quick, short (and pleasant) one for when an edge is first detected, and then another for when an edge is no longer detected—and silence the rest of the time.

Invaluable. I am newly visually impaired and find the Voice Dream scanner/reader invaluable. I recently received my homeowners insurance renewal policy and scanned the pages using batch mode. I was then able to sit down and read through the documents. I did not need help from a sighted person. This app gives me back some of my independence. Also, the customer service is top notch. They will get back to you within a few hours if you ask a question of them. Keep up The great work. Kind regards. Excuse any typos. Sent using Siri dictation and sometimes she just doesn’t get me.

This app is priceless. This app is fantastic! I have used all the scanning apps that have been available including the one that cost $100! This app works much better than all of them! I use it every day for reading everything from my mail to directions on frozen Foods etc. Don’t know what I would do without it! I highly recommend this app! Customer service is excellent.

Voice Dream equals Phenomenal as Always. As happens every time, I am once again blown away by this developer/s. For three years, Voice Dream Reader has remained the only tts app I continue to use every day. I have been waiting for a good affordable scanner app for the blind, and at last it has arrived. I am more greatful than I can say, and would have paid three times the price for this amazing app. I will be going to college later this year, and I am now feeling more confident about being able to access my future materials. Thanks so much Voice Dream Team!

Voice Dream Scanner. Nice touch to only need a two finger scrub to discard a scan of junk mail and be ready for the next auto scan…I give it a 5 rating, not worried that will go to Winston’s head and he’ll get lazy about improvements…great app for me, as a person who is totally blind? For reading my mail or whatever.

Great app! With the most responsive developer in the App Store!. I'm writing this update after iOS 16.0.2 came out and there was a problem with using the Ivona voices with Scanner. Winston isolated and corrected the problem in just a couple of hours and had the updated app in the app store right away. No one else gives that level of service! Voice Dream Scanner is the easiest and most accurate OCR app I have used! It will only get better as multi-column support is added.

Voice dream scanner. I have been working with this scanner since it came out several months ago. I find for the price it is the best scanner, bar none, that I have ever used. It is very accurate and fast. It is an excellent scanner for the blind

Just what I needed, but glitchy af. So this is a great companion app to Voice Dream that needs some improvement: Often when I am taking photos of pages, the app crashes and I lose a lot of my progress. This happens with regular capture mode at times, but always in auto capture, crashes every time and I lose like 10 page photos... Also, it's been fine for detecting text on my laptop but I tried to take a picture of a print book and the text detection was really wonky no matter how many times I tried to retake the picture, flatten/straighten it out, etc. I've been relying on this app because it makes my life with ADHD so much easier but I would love to see fixes for these issues. Thank you for making this app suite, I appreciate it.

Fast and Accurate. This app works fast and is accurate with its results. All apps of this type will always have limitations, nothing compares to actual vision. If you go in with that in mind, you will realize how wonderful this app is. First, it is a bargain at the price. Secondly, the app works in tandem with an already great app, Voice Dream Reader. Thirdly, it reads words off of images, documents, labels and mail that are inaccessible to me. All of this is done accurately and quickly with the voices that I already love from Voice Dream Reader.

Expensive bundle but worth the price. I purchased the Voice Dream bundle to assist my students who have reading difficulties. This newer App adds even greater access to books that my students would otherwise would not be able to read on their own. I wish this technology would also scan book illustrations to further enrich my student’s reading experience. Also, there should be a discount for students and educators.

Absolutely the best scanning app I have ever used. I am blind and this app makes it so easy for me to read my mail, documents, packaging labels, and most any other type of print. Also the accuracy is remarkably good. The sound indication lets me know when to snap the picture and another tap of the red button reads the text aloud. I can handle print material very easily now.

Doesn’t work with current PDFs. I’m updating the star review because voice dreamer now provides native ocr function. Previous review: I would expect to be able to use the ocr function on a current text document. It doesn’t allow for this. It works on pictures only. Do you know how many inferior scans exist in the world in need of ocr? Anyhow I thought this is a basic function to rescan current PDFs.

Love it!. I love the app! It allows me to read virtually anything I can find. I’ve been looking for something like this for a very long time and think I found it. I recommend it to anyone who is blind, low vision, and even dyslexic. Again, love it so much!

ADD helper. I have ADD. Sometimes it flares up worse times then others and it is hard to read. I’ll read/reread a sentence a zillion times. The scanner app in conjunction with Voicedream helps me to listen to my books. I just got done scanning 30 pages and am now ready to study for my class. I do recommend scanning and saving a file that is no bigger then 10-14 pages. I hope it helps you as much as me.

A Functional Tool. I purchased for my daughter who prefers to ‘read’ everything by ear, and will settle for a computer voice if there isn’t a professional audiobook. She has several college books that don’t have e books. It seems to work well, and I like the ability to change speeds and voices. ADVICE for efficient scanning: make sure the page is flat as can be. Sometimes holding the other (not being scanned )side of the book up so it’s at 90 degrees to the page you want scanned helps with this. I am also a teacher and can see a variety of applications.

A surprising wonderful app!. This app is useful in more ways than one. To be completely honest, I was a bit skeptical at first. I have poor eyesight and to be able to simply take a picture of any words and have it read back to me is marvelous! If there is one tiny trick I’d add to this application, it’d be to have the ability of “ctrl F” the document and searching up a specific word. It clearly has the artificial technology to figure out all the words! This would make it even easier for those with poor eyesight, disabilities, or even students to aid in their studies when needing to find a specific word section or paragraph! Great app all around!

Definitely worth the investment.. Thanks to the Voice Dream Scanner, sorting thru mail and other paperwork is a breeze! I just purchased this app and put it thru its paces organizing the desk. I especially appreciate the variety of options for saving scan results for further reference, and found this app much more enhanced with features than other options currently available. If I could add one feature, it would be a button for checking page orientation. Even though the app automatically corrects this, sometimes it is really important to know the physical orientation of the page. Still, definitely worth the investment, and I look forward to using the Voice Dream Scanner for many years to come.

Fantastic addition to the suite of Voice Dream apps. Just downloaded this new app. As a teacher of the visually impaired I have used a lot of apps for OCR reading. I love the quality and ease of this app. If you use the other Voice Dream apps the settings are the same so learning is seamless and fast (and you get to use your favorite voices as well). Great job guys!

Great promise but memory leaks. I love Voice Dream and I will love Voice Dream Scanner after the memory leaks are fixed Im sure. I restarted my iphone 8, fired up voice dream scanner, and started scanning with all the extra settings in the panel turned off, and around 10 pages of scans it quits out with a black screen. Not helpful for real use for my travels! Will update this review when this is fixed!

The best app I have ever purchased yet. I had just purchased this Saturday and started using it I can’t believe how well it works in reading documents and other material. I’m glad that you came up with the concept for the app because, what would I do without it. It was well worth the $10! Thank you so much for this app as it makes me feel more independent and not having to rely on other people to read documents.

Way better than any other OCR app that I’ve tried. I love that this app is truly fantastic! My experience has been that I can truly read things with very high accuracy with this app. I used a number of OCR apps before this app came out. The extent of what I could do with those apps regularly was just to get an idea of what something was. I could usually get them to read just enough accurately to know what it was from the context. There was almost no chance of getting them to read something in detail accurately.

Honestly felt a little duped. It looked like this app was to scan and read text because it wasn’t very clear initially and it’s hard to get an accurate reading with this app. IOS latest update for Apple has a scanning feature it’s much more accurate than this app. I ended up paying like 19 bucks to get the reader app which has the scanning feature in it already and is a bit smoother in operation.

Worth every cent!. This app is very accurate and works better than the popular $100 app. My only recommendation would be to allow the app to be able to delete a photo from your photo library after scanning.

A wonderful app. This app is by far the best scanning app I have yet used. It has read documents that have been folded multiple times, and other things that other scanning apps have not even attempted to read. I hope to see many more improvements from this app in the future. I also enjoy the simplicity and how fast the character recognition takes place.

The only scanning app you’ll ever need.. I enjoy using this app to read mail and print documents independently. The intuitive tone guidance is far better than KNFB or Seeing AI. Even in poor lighting conditions, this app picks up any printed text and stores multiple pages into a single file. VoiceDream beats the competition hands-down. You’ve tried the rest, now try the best.

CRASHES EVERY TIME!!!!. I use Voice Dream Reader daily and love it to death. This WOULD be a dream come true ....IF IT WORKED!!! Crashes with all the bells and whistles turned on after 3-4 pages. Tuned off the extras, and resorted to just dragging in photos 1 at a time from camera roll. This crashes after 10-11 pages. After every crash all my work is lost except the first photo. Spent 2 hours taking photos just to find out this app DOES NOT WORK. This is such a great idea, it would be amazing if it worked. $4.99 DOWN A RAT HOLE. That’s really no big deal, the disappointment of it not working is the real bummer.

What Exciting News. I have used Voice Dream Reader for years and have hoped for a scanning app. I haven’t used it yet and will update accordingly when I do. In the meantime, I hope support for exporting to Voice Dream Writer will be included. I do not see this in the description, so forgive me if it is there and I missed it. The reason I mention this specifically, is that it is my experience that even the best scanned documents need a little bit of editing. This could also be because I am still figuring out which scanning program I like the best though.

Best scanning app I've used so far!. I absolutely love this app! Are used to scan my mail and many things! It's the best scanning app I have ever used by far! I love how it beeps to let you know when there is text and is louder or quieter depending on how much text is in range of the camera. Love it love it! I would totally recommend it!

Decent affordable scanner/reading app.. Overall has been beneficial when reading papers/documents/books etc. the app has difficulties as times when there are multiple columns on a single page where it jumps back and forth/reading out of order.

Best scanning app I have ever used, and I have used them all. I have tried pretty much all of the blind friendly scanning apps that have been available since 2012–including the famous one from that well-known blindness organization that doesn’t work nearly as well as its proponents claim it does. Out of all of them, I have found this one to have the best method of indicating the location of text for proper orientation of the device, and it also has very rapid recognition. Additionally, it uses local recognition and does not use the cloud, which is great for privacy. One strange and unusual problem I have just discovered with it, though most people won’t experience this, is that if you reset all settings on an iPhone, this app no longer seems able to generate the scan tone, or use the camera flash. The app must be deleted and reinstalled, which isn’t really a problem once you figure out what you have to do. That little oddity aside, this is truly a great app, and is worth 10 times the price. I know, Because I have paid 10 times the price for other scanning apps for the blind which were not nearly as good.

Easy, straight forward. Sometimes choppy.. As an auditory learner, and a very slow reader, this app is helping me get my college degree. The only issues I’ve had are choppy reading when a word is split between two lines and occasionally it will read a word from a different line first, but I think the latter might be my photography and complicated page layouts (I’m ready a modern physics book). The voices are computerized, so it takes time to adapt to, but it really helps if you follow along in the text a few times to recognize it’s reading patterns. I really love this app, it’s easy to take pictures and there is a batch setting that allows you to take a series of pictures for the same file. Super fast way to get an audio book.

Voice scanner is the first app I use if I need to solve a blindness related problem. I keep trying everything but I still always will use this app first because of its ease of use and its accuracy.

Fantastic. I use it all the time. It is second to none.

Scanned a bound book. I love my books, and hate to have to chop these to feed into the Scan Snap scanner. Today I just finished scanning a 303 page book that arrived from overseas. I built a platform to rest my iPad on, and under neath was where I put the book. I built a 90 degree acrylic (two pieces of acrylic glued together) device so I could place it between pages and this would hold the pages flat. I then used black tape to clearly outline the edges. This setup took 65% of the total time (next book will use this same acrylic device). I watched videos while doing the scan After I finished, I outputted to voice dream reader, and it worked perfectly.

Amazing little app. Very impressive OCR.

Voice stream scanner. An outstanding app in every way! Congratulations to the developers!

This accessibility app has helped pave my way back to the world of literature!. I downloaded this for $8 and some odd change and it just shuts off with no explanation. Again and again. Through my frustration, I chose to react poorly by assigning it with just a single star, and a disparaging review. After coming back to this a day later, I loaded it onto my iPhone and second iPad. It worked beautifully! Since this time, I’ve discovered that it wasn’t the app that was crashing. I suspect it was the case that partially obscured the flash component of the iPad. One of my comments was that if it sounds too good to be true… It probably isn’t. My perspective has now changed. This is the first time for me when reading that something sounds too good to be true, it is! I sheepishly apologize to the developers of this app. 🥺 This accessibility app has helped pave my way back to the world of literature! Again, please except my humble apology. Thank you! Robert

I LOVE THIS APP! But!!. Don't get me wrong, I love every thing about this app. Well almost everything! For those of you that have worked with Kurzweil, this app has enormous potential. But it needs a little tweaking. This app works wonderfully well when you scan a word document, but when your scanning documents or books that have charts or text in its own boxes, it does not read each section in order. However, I still love this app & am waiting patiently for the updates.

Simply the best. I have tried other scanning apps and this one is by far the best.

Application presque parfaite!. Il ne manque qu’UNE option pour que cette application soit parfaite: celle de pouvoir corriger les erreurs d’OCR!

Amazing features for good price but crashes if you scan many pages.. It’s a good scanner at an excellent price for these features compared to other apps, but the reason for three stars only is that if you scan a lot of pages the app crashes and I’ve lost a substantial amount of my work and time because of this having to restart again. So if you use this app, scan slowly, and don’t export the images to pdf if there are a lot of pages. I’m sad to have lost my time and work by crashes.

Immediately relieved me a frustration by reading the visual and put on my TV. This app saved the day! Basically, I was trying to sign into YouTube on my Amazon fire stick. The built-in software for YouTube does not use voice view from Amazon. So, it read me the code that I have to put into the website without reading any punctuation! I attempted to use another scanning app with no success. I used this voice dream scan program and it got the code I needed correctly thank goodness. Now I can watch my YouTube videos and music without stupid commercials! Thank you everybody peace out and have a father Tabula‘s day!

10/10. This app is absolutely amazing. The voices sound great, it easy to navigate between chapters, and all around intuitive to use. Love that it’s a one time purchase instead of a subscription. It is really helpful for my ADHD. Thank you.

App Needs more work. Scanning app is nice but very finicky when scanning multiple pages. App will crash if you scan too fast and will loose a good portion of what you have scanned and have to start over.

Ken Bee. This app is a good one. Takes some time to lern, but really nice for people that can’t, see or have a hard time reading.

A little too hard on my iPhone 8.. My phone can’t do text processing while batch capturing at the same time. I’m struggling to use this app. If the option for processing after importing was available, this could work. Or batch importation of photos so I could use the camera app.

Incredible App!. On device OCR! I’ve been using Voice Dream Reader since it was first released and this app is just as awesome and worth every penny!

Love this app.. I love that with this app, I don't have to worry about all edges being visible, it works great!!

Awesom. Hello, This is Brian, I was a bit skeptical at first but once purchasing in this program it’s absolutely awesome. I would not hesitate to tell anybody about how good this program works. Do not hesitate. If you’re sitting on the fence, don’t wait. Buy it now. You won’t be sorry. Regards Brian

Awesome App. This developer has created another technological wonder. Easy to use, works well, and is inexpensive.

Company does follow its customers opinions. Changing my recent review, they fixed my concern

4.3 stars. I just purchased The SharkAPEX DuoClean Powered Lift-Away with Self-Cleaning Brushroll Upright vacuum. In the past, I have never read the owners manual that comes with my purchases. Today however utilizing the voice stream scanner, I was able to read and understand the owners manual effortlessly. As a visually impaired person, this means more independence for me! I am interested in other products as well. I will recommend this product to others.

Keeps Crashing. This app only works when you scan one page at a time. When you attempt to scan more than 3 pages it crashes every single time. Very frustrating.

Great!. I have been a long time user of all the Voice Dream products and they are my “go-to” apps for all things PDF!

This is a well designed app for visually impaired users. Great text detection flow as well as the quality of the recognized text! Of course, the app works great with voiceover screen reader.

Love This Suite Of Apps!. The very best for accurately and dependably reading the printed sheet or document; especially helpful for blind users! Thank you for a well-thought-out and well-implemented product.

Classic unicorn girl 2000s review. The app is vary helpful but does not always seem to scan the pages correctly. But it makes school readings much easier and faster.I has helped me with a lot of school work. And is very easy to use once you get to understand it and are use to using it.

Name change! Why?. What? You’re changing this one too! I Why did you abandon a very popular name like “voice dream scanner.” VDScan sound so ordinary and very boring. At least your keeping the iconic logo. But please reconsider the silly name change.

App keeps crashing. This is a very good app, except for the fact it keeps crashing, causing me to lose dozens of pages I painstakingly scanned. Sadly, it doesn't matter how good it is. The problem of losing so much of one's work makes it not worth using.

An incredible bit of tech. This app is truly amazing. I would not have completed Grad School without it. Thank you Winston Chen!

This app is almost amazing. I just tried to figure out a package of rice I had. I first used Seeing AI with not much success. I then tried Voice Dream scanner, and while it was not perfect, it totally kicked seeing AI’s bum! :-) keep up the great work, voice dream Folks exclamation

VDScan is my daily driver. VDScan is my daily go to for a checking mail. It is fast and accurate.

I would like a refund. I downloaded this app to help with grad school. The voices are very monotone. I don’t know when a sentence ends and a new one begins. Common English words are mispronounced. I thought this app would help but it does the complete opposite.

Works great.. No longer do I send pics of documents.

Simple and Accurate. This app is easy to use and very accurate. If history proves helpful, I know I can expect great enhancements from the developer of this app!

Like it alot. I really like this app but think people who have some vision would benefit from having the option to adjust the font, color/background and point size. Otherwise it’s fantastic.

Support is non existent. Emailed support in May 2019. Issue related to pronunciation of lowercase L’s as uppercase i’s on iPad mini. 8 months later, still no resolution. I bought this app to listen to 3 books where words , pronunciations and their meanings are important.

Made my life so much easier.. This has made reading my textbooks so much easier. This is a great app.

Changing from paragraph to column reading on one page. Software to detect a paragraph from columns and chge accordingly on the fly. Or, at least to Rezone. Thanks

Voice dream. Fantastic app! Easy to use and works quickly. It is nice to scan a document and not get frustrated because it doesn’t work.

Is good. It is a good app, a bit hard to maneuver and understand, can’t make different files.

missing a basic feature. When importing photos, you can only import one photo at a time. This is very time consuming if I need to import 100 photos in a single document. There needs to be an option for batch selection of photos that can be imported in the app.

Excellent Support. Had some questions and the customer support responded promptly. Very happy with the app.

Great app!. Thank you Winston for yet another awesome app! You do such good work. Thank you for letting me test for you and I am very happy to pay for what I tested. Thank you again.

It works I guess. I was expecting it to work better for $6. It does the job technically but I have to retake each picture 20 times because it’s so picky and it can’t pick up text from a not flat surface for example my textbook near the biding is blind to the camera. :/

Scanner App. The cropping is not terrible, but I was misled into thinking that this app could take photos of books and flatten the pages as if they'd been run through a scanner. Tends to crash if used too quickly, but it always autosaved my work. The optical character recognition is quick and pretty good.

Great app. This is one of those few apps that you see every once in a while. It’s not just another scanning app, it’s an incredible one. Accuracy, simplicity and great customer support. Keep it up.

Good idea. Cursor seems out of place.. Having scanned a few documents into Voice dream, the OCR seems decent, but the placement of the text (via the cursor) seems off by quite a bit. The highlight sections seem always to be well out in front of what Voicedream is speaking. Hoping it gets fixed soon.

always excellent. Voice Dream is in that small category of "must have" apps. Don't think ... just get it. You won't regret it.

Great app. Excellent app for scanning and OCR. The only problem I have is that it is very resource intensive and the phone heats up after I scan 20-50 pages

Voice dream scanner. This application is extremely well designed . It does exactly what it’s supposed to & does it well. Voice dream scanner scans documents with accuracy . Two thing that would be helpful : 1 if voice dream scanner could inform the user of the scanned page orientation. 2. When edge detection is turned on the Scan Tone cannot be heard .

Shuts down during batch scan. I want to love this but it keeps shutting down when I try to scan a batch. It’s very frustrating! When it shuts down it doesn’t save all of the slow progress already made, so I have to start over from the beginning again.

Keeps shutting off. I’m not sure what happened, it used to work ok. Please look into the issue. It shuts off and only saves few pages even thought 10 were scanned

Crashing. Just tried to use this app four times and it crashed every time after about seven pages. Pretty frustrating.

They keep app updated with improvements. The app are kept up and cutting edge tech .. and unlike other apps they keep up with cutting edge tech and update to stay current. I do not stay with a app if i do not see updates like a year ago since last update. take a lesson from. FB AND many others updating and making better weekly. I love the writers app the readers app and scan app

my pocket buddy. This app is more efficient than a $1000 app on my computer. Thank you for this app.

This is a wonderful app. This app is fantastic, it’s worth every penny I paid for it, it’s better than all of the scanning apps I’ve used prior to this.

Excellent Tool for ADHD. AS SOMEONE THAT HAS ADHD with a reading comprehension disability, I LOVE this app! It makes reading so much easier!

I use this ap every day to read my continuous glucose monitor reader. This is excellent for me.. Makes needin gsighted help a lot less

When it works, it’s perfect.. Works perfectly unless your text is divided into two (or more) columns on a page. If it could do that consistently I would give 5 stars.

Game Changer. This allows me (in concert with the Reader) to essentially turn any text i own into an audio book. Incredible!

The best app ever. This app that I’m using, I really admired a lot! It does a lot for me. I like this better than seeing AI! So, please keep up the good work. I have other apps that will read on my phone, but this one is the best. From j j

Wonderful app. This app is very fast and accurate. I love how it plays a tone when it detects text. Is the best scanning app I have seen so far and itis definitely better than many of its more expensive counterparts.

VoiceDream Scanner. This is by far the best OCR apps out their along with VoiceDream Reader and Writer
