Seeking an accessible app to manage my Pdf/image stuff

Hi folks,

I’m wondering what’s available to scan images, convert them to PDFs, easily extract text, and create PDFs with multiple photos. What app would you recommend for these tasks that works well with VoiceOver? I’ve tried CamScanner, but it’s terrible unless I use screen recognition, which makes my phone much slower. Also, is there a shortcut or a quick tool to extract text from PDFs with images without having to go into an app and click on a bunch of unnecessary stuff? Thank you!

This is a really good OCR app, especially if you use its cloud OCR feature. I don't know if you can include photos though, but you can use the 'share sheet' to process things in prizmo quickly. the iOS app entry is here.

I don't know if it does everything you need, but it's a start. It's a monthly subscription, but there's a free tier and on-device scanning if you don't want to put things in the cloud.
