TextSniper - OCR, Copy & Paste

macOS / Productivité

Transform any text on your Mac screen into editable, copyable text in seconds. TextSniper works everywhere - capture text from any app, game, PDF, image, or video with a simple click and drag. No more manual retyping from sources that won't let you copy text normally.

If you have used a built-in Mac screen capture application before, it wouldn't be any trouble to work with TextSniper, too. Select with a mouse any part of an image, photo, PDF document, app interface, game screen, or anything displayed on your screen, and the app will process and recognize any text within this selection. The text output will be copied to your clipboard so you can paste it into your preferred macOS text editing or note-taking app.

Finally, the app's optical character recognition engine doesn't need an internet connection to process text. Great OCR solution for those who are concerned about privacy. The application does not collect any users' data.
