    The gallery app for OnePlus and Google Photos have lens built in and it seems like the server side update has bought the function to these apps.

    I haven't tried the copy to computer thing but the recognition isn't too bad. Currently it reads it back in US English. Other languages work well though.

            You can just use Google Keep to sync handwritten notes to any PC.

              Nice feature. I think I download it and try it. After reading this I just realised that I have never really looked into getting an OCR software for Android. Will do a complete job as a OCR software where I can just capture text with the camera and save it say the notepad in my phone or even mobile Microsoft Word? If not can somebody please suggest a good OCR software for Android or one you deem the best. Thanks.
