Frequently asked questions
- Are my files uploaded to a server?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your browser — your files never leave your device, which makes it fast and completely private.
- What languages and images work best?
- Clear, high-contrast English text works best (printed text, screenshots, signs). Recognition runs on-device, so nothing is uploaded. Blurry or handwritten text may be less accurate.
