Screenshot Hero

Screenshot Hero scans through your screenshots (and other saved photos) and makes then instantly searchable by text in them.

Highlights
  • Images are all processed on-device and nothing is sent to any server.
  • Tested to work with thousands of images.
  • Best and most performant OCR technology.


Technical Details
*Developer* wanted to build a simple utility app that would run OCR through my photos (all 5000+ of them) and make them searchable. *Developer* had following constraints for it:

  • It has to be fast. The UI needs to be fluid even for thousands of images.
  • All processing should happen on-device, should not be uploading photos to a cloud service.
  • *Developer* needed to make it quick (*Developer* only had a week allocated for this project).
