This is an important distinction, as traditional scanning apps with OCR usually have you save new documents as PDFs (or other formats) and then you have to open the PDF, find the text you want, and copy it. While there are many apps that offer OCR (optical character recognition) scanning for iPhone and iPad ( Genius Scan is a great advanced option), it’s much more rare to find an app that immediately converts images and more to text right on your clipboard. Whether you want to quickly convert images to text from Twitter, the web, or your own screenshots or want to grab data from the real world and make it easy to save, share, etc., iPhone is a handy tool to make that happen.

Read along for how to convert iPhone images to text available right on your clipboard. Nonetheless, the photo editing tools work just as well elsewhere on other iOS devices, and the larger screened iPad makes for a surprisingly good image editing device for simple post processing using these built-in tools.The tried-and-true copy/paste combo is a staple of productivity but that can grind to a halt when you need to quickly grab text from the real world or existing screenshots and pictures.
Of course this tip also applies to the Photos app for iPad and iPod touch post-iOS 7, but for most people the iPhone is the primary camera out of the three devices, so we’re keeping the focus there. Try all three of them and you’ll almost certainly find a selection that works best for the image you’re working with, and the results can turn an otherwise boring photo into a much more artistic rendition of itself. Mono and Tonal tend to look universally good with most photo inputs, while Noir can look amazing with the proper starting image but can also look over processed with images that are already heavy in contrast. Noir – The strongest black and white filter, applies significant adjustments to levels, brightness, and contrast, skies will turn black and lighter portions of the image will really pop out.Tonal – Removes all color saturation and applies a slight boost to both brightness and contrast, making for a starker black and white image.Mono – Removes all color from the image, effectively desaturating the photo but making no adjustments to contrast, brightness, or levels.
It’s rewarding to test each of the three black and white filters yourself, but here’s a general explanation of what to expect from each:
