1. Capture the whiteboard
Snap a photo at the end of the lecture and convert to editable text the same night while it is still fresh.
2. Digitise handouts
Print-outs and textbook pages become searchable Word documents. Highlight what matters, drop into your notes app.
3. Translate as you go
Use Afrikaans, isiZulu or Sesotho OCR, then paste the result into your favourite translator.
4. Build flashcards faster
Extract definitions from a slide and paste into Anki or Quizlet without retyping.
5. Share clean notes
DOCX downloads make it trivial to email or print study packs for a study group.
