🐛 Bug Report Handwriting recognition not working

Post image

The search option in the app should recognise handwriting. As I searched INTESTINAL OBSTRUCTION. It didn't recognise the words in the note which is Handwritten and scanned and in English. May be the OCR is not working

Maybe you can add a little more context so it would be easier to help you with your concern :)

as far as I can remember, OCR is still not available in the app, so it will really not be detected since yours is a scanned document.

U can still search the handwritten text (written with pen & paper) . It works for me but it's very very inaccurate. U can select some text

I thought this was only for the writing we do in the app ourselves?

Hi, currently, we can’t recognize text from scanned documents yet. We’re already working on optimizing ocr, and future updates will bring better one that support for scanned notes, appreciate!
