FAQs

Is there a limit to the number of pages or documents I can scan with BookScan?

The app's scanning capacity may depend on your device's storage and the specific subscription tier you choose. While the free version might have limitations, premium plans typically offer higher or unlimited scanning volumes for extensive projects.

What kind of accuracy can I expect from the OCR, especially with handwritten notes or complex layouts?

BookScan utilizes advanced OCR technology for high accuracy on printed text. While it performs well on clear handwritten notes, complex layouts or very messy handwriting might reduce accuracy. We recommend good lighting and clear focus for best results.

Can I export the digitized text to different formats or integrate it directly with other applications?

Yes, BookScan allows you to export the OCR'd text in common formats like plain text or PDF. The 'AI-ready text output' means it's clean and structured for easy integration into various AI tools, research platforms, or document management systems.
