... for images and scanned PDFs, as well as “the ability to create web archives on iOS, new Siri Shortcuts that work with the clipboard on iOS, plus other improvements to PDF editing, search, the Share extension, notes, text editing and more”.

I’ve yet to test it, but if this update lives up to its billing it will be an even handier note-taker and store.

Thank you for the notice. I’ve installed 1.6 and cannot see an obvious message that text is recognized in imported scans. It *appears* that searching for text strings does find the scanned document, but hits are not highlighted so it’s a bit hit and miss to test. The Help file hasn’t caught up with the blog notices.

If this is actually working, it’s an interesting new feature. Keep It is a good repository and note taker. Not something I’ve felt like dedicating much time to, but maybe someday.
