With this free app Office Lense you can take pictures of text documents with the camera of a Android, iOS or Windows device and convert them into documents. The app used to convert the information from the photo into a Word document.
Now there is a message on the updated Office Lense status page about the end of support of the Windows 10 app.
Important: Certain cloud-based services in Office Lens for Windows, such as saving your pictures to OneDrive, OneNote, Word, PowerPoint, or PDF, will become unavailable after December 31, 2020. You can continue to use other features of the app as installed on your device. In addition, Office Lens for Windows 10 will no longer be available for download from the Microsoft Store as of January 1, 2021.
