Scan paper to an editable Word document
Retyping a printed page is slow. TerryScan reads the text on your scan with on-device OCR and exports it as a Word document you can edit, so a handout, letter or set of notes becomes editable in seconds.
How it works
1. Scan the page with the camera, or import a photo you already have. 2. TerryScan crops and cleans it up. 3. Choose Word as the export format and share or save the DOCX.
Private OCR
Text recognition runs on your phone rather than on a remote server, which matters when the page is a contract, a medical form or a payslip.
Part of Pro
Scan-to-Word is included in TerryScan Pro, a one-time $5.99 purchase that also unlocks batch OCR, PDF compression and password-protected PDFs.
