User reviews

The app has always been good. It saved me the bother of looking for fonts since 2020 (lockdown). I have been working with it without problems. But I wish I could rate you more than 5 stars. You are more than an app. You are a graphic designer workmate. 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬

The most frustrating app I've used. I had to move the pic to several folders just for this stupid app to detect it. When i finally able to upload the photo to the app, it didn't even recognize the font style and yield a bunch of stupid results which aren't even related or similar to the font style i was looking for.

This app used to be great, always worked, and gave many close-enough typefaces or even the exact one of the one you're trying to find. BUT! NOT ANYMORE. For a long while now, I take a picture, and the app changes what it wants to see. It is sometimes upside-down or 90° off-set or doesn't focus on the writing in the image - which is the sole purpose for this app! Please sort this out!!!
