TextGenie came from an idea I had one day while using a scan to email app - what if you could point your iPhone at a page of text and the app automatically looked up key words, terms etc and let you easily navigate the search results?

After a lot of head-scratching, we came up with the TextGenie app - simple to use, but potentially powerful. Take picture of some text - a page of a book, a recipe, a sign, a poster - and TextGenie will do its best to expand
interesting terms it finds, letting you navigate through the results on Wikipedia.

If you enjoy using the app, consider upgrading to the full version which will let you save, edit and recall your results, as well as giving you the ability to email them.
