According to TechCrunch, Microsoft today released 'Office Lens', an app that lets you snap photos of invoices, documents, receipts and more. It works with OneNote on iOS and Android.
Like most scanner apps, Office Lens identifies the text on the images it captures using optical character recognition (OCR), which allows you to later locate the file in question using keyword search in OneNote or in Microsoft’s cloud storage site, OneDrive. You can also convert the images you scan of paper files and whiteboards into Microsoft Office formats and more, including Word documents, PowerPoint presentations and even PDFs and JPGs. These can be inserted into OneNote as images, the company says.
Yah...great!
