Help Find grow! It’s a pretty small app built by a one person team, but I’m working on it with everything I got. Want to join me in spreading the word?

Find is a fast, focused iOS app that lets you find text in real life. It brings the power of Command + F to your phone’s camera, balancing speed with awesome capability. I value ease-of-use just as much as your privacy, so there are no ads, trackers, or data being collected.

Find is completely free and works 100% offline. The Optical Character Recognition that powers the core functionality uses on-device technology that’s both fast and accurate. It annihilates the human eye, especially when processing hundreds of photos and producing results in seconds.

Hi, I’m Andrew Zheng. I’m an iOS developer living in the SF Bay Area. Besides coding, I like to watch anime and read manga/light. I also teach piano.

Find is my first and most fully-featured app. I originally built it to help out with school, but I think it’s gotten to be pretty useful for stuff beyond that. But anyway, I’m very committed to user privacy. No one likes apps that sell your data. It’s the same with outrageous subscriptions and unskippable ads. So, all of my apps don’t collect data, have subscriptions, or ads.

You can contact me anytime through Reddit DMs or Discord, or via email.
