Office Lens app now available for iOS and Android which turns your phone into powerful sacnner


Yesterday Microsoft has launched its most popular app: Office Lens which lets people take photos of a document and turn it into a editable file, Apple iPhone and Google's Android.

The app is  free for both iOS and Android devices.

Bringing the app to iOS and Android is the latest sign of Microsoft's new strategy of putting its best software on as many devices as possible, regardless of whether they are running Windows.

The experience is similar as the Windows phone app if you've tried the app before -- all you have to do is get a good snapshot, and the app will convert the output into OneNote-friendly text and image formats. You can save an image as a Word file, PowerPoint presentation or PDF file, and uses optical character recognition to make the text searchable and ready for editing.
