Capture Text With Your Camera: Google Docs for Android Review

In this video I review Google Docs for Android.

Today Google released Google Docs for Android phones and devices which allows you to access your Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations, Text, Images, Collections and more. In addition you can use a new feature exclusive to the native version of Google Docs on Android, Document From Photo mode. Using this allows you to capture text using the camera on your device although how well it works is a different on printed documents as well as handwritten papers remains to be seen.

I can read here an very very close know
what you might wanna do is touched up a
little bit

web interface for a lot of it
the click Edit it seemed for production
issues to a web interface so
I'm you can go ahead and type out your
whatever you can take a look at your
