OCR Service Accuracy
ScanWow's optical character recognition (OCR) service is provided on a "best effort" basis. While we strive for high accuracy:
- OCR results may contain errors, especially with handwritten text, unusual fonts, or poor image quality
- You are responsible for verifying the accuracy of extracted text before relying on it for important purposes
- ScanWow is not liable for any errors, omissions, or inaccuracies in OCR output
- OCR accuracy may vary based on document quality, lighting conditions, and language
Cloud Processing Service
When Magic Cloud (AI-powered OCR) is enabled:
- Your document images are transmitted securely to our servers for processing
- Images are processed in real-time and are not stored on our servers
- Cloud processing depends on internet connectivity and server availability
- We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of cloud services
- You may switch to on-device processing at any time in Settings
For fully offline operation, disable Magic Cloud in the app settings. On-device processing uses Tesseract.js and does not require internet connectivity.
