About This App

Pen2Post turns your handwritten journal pages into editable text you can refine, post, or publish.

Why Pen2Post exists

Pen2Post is for people who think best with pen and paper, but still need their words in digital form. It lets you stay in the quiet, distraction‑free space of a notebook and only go digital when you are ready.

I built this tool first for myself. I love writing and being creative, but chronic illness and limited energy mean I need tools that help me capture my own voice instead of asking AI to write for me. Pen2Post lets me fill a journal in peace, then bring those words into my computer later – still sounding like me.

The problem it solves

Typing directly into a computer can pull you out of creative flow: spell‑check and grammar tools nag you, notifications pop up, and the web is always one click away from a rabbit hole. A notebook has none of that – no alerts, no feeds, no tabs – just you and the page.

The hard part is getting those handwritten pages into digital form without retyping everything by hand. That is the friction Pen2Post removes.

What Pen2Post does

Pen2Post works like a digital court reporter for your notebook: it takes a photo of your page, reads your handwriting, and turns it into text you can edit and share.

• Write freely in your journal like you always do.
• Open Pen2Post and take a photo of a page or upload an existing photo.
• Tap Extract Text and wait a short moment while the app reads your handwriting.
• Fix any misread words, then share the text into your favorite apps or storage.

The app is intentionally simple: one main screen, a big text area, and a clear path from paper to post. It is designed for real handwriting on real pages, not lab‑perfect samples.

What it does not do

Pen2Post is not a writing coach or an auto‑rewrite engine. It does not try to correct your spelling, fix your grammar, or change your style.

The goal is to preserve your original voice. If the app cannot clearly read a word, it may misinterpret it and you simply fix those spots as you shape the draft to match your journal.
