Description

Aedict3 OCR is a stand-alone application which performs OCR (optical character recognition) of Japanese text, preferably on a simple white background. You can store multiple pages of Japanese text, gradually perform OCR over parts of these pages, correct the OCRed text and analyze the text with Aedict3.

Aedict3 OCR uses an off-line OCR engine. Such engines uses a lot of processor power, which in turn will drain your battery faster and may heat up your phone in extreme cases. The algorithm is good, but it is not perfect and it may mis-find some characters. You will get best results for a black-on-white sharp images, with uniform white background, such as printouts. The algorithm is probably next to unusable on color-y magazine covers and hand-drawn kanjis (found for example on temples).

Aedict3 OCR works on Android 4.0 and greater.

Features:
- Aedict3 OCR remembers OCRed images and OCRed text for multiple pages
- Text auto-correction and manual correction (ば -> ぱ, つっ etc)
- Back-up and restore of images and texts, to the internal phone memory, ownCloud and Dropbox

Permissions:

Read/Write External storage: used when importing images from Gallery
Network: used when backing up/restoring data to/from ownCloud and Dropbox

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

1 ★does not work at all. Try it only if you have a super super phone
5 ★Went from this: "Love aedict in general but honestly this is of no use as it is. Tried different Japanese books and never got anything scanned correctly even though it works with Google translate. An offline OCR would be great so please develop this more." To this : Great tool, if you used translate you will need to re-learn how to use it. Ths thing is google translate automatically tries to get the best picture, here you have to tinkle with the camera app but once you have a clear picture this is actually superior. Although with a bad picture it is catastrophic. A great addition would be to have a button to keep the flash on until pressed again, it would help getting focus. zoom your pic to have a more precise selection, it also helps recognition. Good thing my internet box crashed and I couldn't access translate for I had given this a miss (while using aedict all the time...) I guess there is still room for improvment ergonomy wise but this is already a great tool.
3 ★For one can there be an option to make the horizontal reading the default?
2 ★Bought it with high expectations because Aedict was extremely good, but now I have buyer's remorse. It doesn't work on most of the text
3 ★It is good
5 ★Works perfect on my DoCoMo Galaxy S4. Brilliant app.
4 ★
5 ★I tried the app on a manga (vertical text) and it worked quite well. I had to add some small corrections (がinstead ofヵ) but I guess it will get better. After OCR'ing the text I pressed the search button... Edit: I see, you can do it from the menu! (thanks!) Also, you could add some contrast/level manual adjustment if it helps the algorithm I guess. About the price, glad to support your apps.
2 ★Not as accurate as Google translates free camera capture function.
