Pros and cons of Pixter Scanner OCR Document app for iPhone and iPad

Pixter Scanner OCR Document app good for

Like one of the reviewers before me, this is my first time writing a review for an iPhone app. This one is perfect. I went to a bulletin board nearby, used this app to take a picture of a lot of text in the ad, and converted it to text that I was able to use immediately. This is awesome!
Reading notes made so quickly, even in foreign languages. And support is quick as well. Id hate to do without this app!
Ive hunted high and low for good OCR on iOS. This is by far the best Ive found. The app needs visually updated for iOS 7 or later, but it really doesnt matter much. Id also like to see a "smarten quotes" feature, but Pixter even recognizes em dashes! Thats very rare in mobile OCR. In short, the app is nearly perfect.
I was really enjoying the app but now appears this error and do not translate anything. Administrators help me! : "message id=5107.V2_Rest.Translate.5152D1A4"
Works surprisingly quick and impressive accuracy when used on an iPhone 5. On an iPad 2 it yields gibberish. Cant yet comment on translation as I have not really tested that yet. It seems to do a good job of getting the meanings correct, but I have not had much opportunity to use it that way.
Works very well, I tested several images with little and a lot of text. 5 of 7 images were perfect with the other 2 images having a character missed here and there.

Some bad moments

This may be my own lack of time & dedication to search for the instructions, but the app is too far from being intuitive to bother IMHO
I dont have much use for an app like this but whenever I have needed to use it has let me down. Deleting this app
It does not extract the text the way it is in the picture that was take. It only shows codes a real waste of money buying this.
No support. Doesnt work. Dont waste your money. Last update was 3 years ago. Lame
App get stucks and freeze whenever I try to read (scanning). Fixing is required.
Printed text recognition is really bad (sometimes no text is recognized on a page). And forget about scanning hand written notes.
