good morning,
i have bought Prizmo for mac more than three months ago. however, i don't feel that it's efficient. when i read about it, i feel that it's a great app. when i use it, i don't feel the same.
is Prizmo on iphone better? i don't know, when i perform the ocr on a photo to export its content fo a txt file, the words are not clearly recognized although the photo is fine. even the voiceover doesn't provie a feedback about the photo whether it's clear. do i have a problem with my mac?
please tell me your experience with Prizmo on mac in particular

Personally I did not find Prizmo results so impressive like the recognised texts in ABBYY FineReader. Maybe you can buy AFR as it is on sale now.

do you find that ABBY fine reader is like Kurzweil? and how do i find it, in the app store or the itunes store?
i searched for it before in the mac app store bub didn't find it

It is not available on the App Store, just visit the site and you will get a 30 day demo to test it yourself.
I use it all the time since I migrated to Mac from painful Windows experience, I still remember that Kurzweil itself uses AFR engine. So eventually you'll download the app and you will test it yourself.

you said it's on sale not, how much is it now?

Not sure, I think it is around 50GBP now. I do not know if it is still on sale though.

Stay tuned.

I don't know for sure, but I have a strong feeling about Prizmo becoming much better for voiceover user.

One thing you can do if you have iPhone and Mac app of Prizmo. You could use Handoff to transfer from iPhone to Mac. Scenarios will vary...
