Those looking for an accessible OCR app for their iDevices may very well be in luck.  Text Detective is a new, fully accessible app that was released to the U.S. iTunes store yesterday.

According to the app's description, Text Detective will allow one to scan printed documents--and edit, email, or copy the resulting text to other apps--all in a completely accessible interface.  While the app is designed mainly for the iPhone 4S, it can run on other iOS devices as well--including iPads.

Currently priced at $1.99, Text Detective is available for download in the iTunes App Store.

More information about the app is available on the AppleVis directory entry at http://www.applevis.com/ios-app-directory/utilities/text-detective.
