How It Works
When you upload a photo of your notes, IntelliSession uses OCR (optical character recognition) to extract the handwriting and convert it into a structured note.
Photo Requirements
For best results, make sure:
The handwriting is clear and legible
The image is well-lit
The notes are fully visible in the photo
The photo is in focus and not blurry
There are no heavy shadows or glare on the page

Capturing a New Photo
You can use the built-in camera feature to take a new photo of your notes by pressing Capture.
On Mobile
Your device's back-facing camera will be selected automatically.
Click Take Photo to capture the image. After capturing the photo, you will see options to download it or remove it and take another.

FAQs
Can I Upload Both a Photo and Audio?
Yes. You can attach both audio and photos when generating a note.
If you already attached audio, click the + (plus) icon to add another input. A new box will appear below the one containing the audio input.
Switch the lower box to the Photo tab and add your photo.
What If I Have Multiple Pages of Handwritten Notes?
You can attach multiple pages of handwritten notes using the same general process described above.
Why Didn't My Handwritten Notes Convert Well?
OCR accuracy depends mostly on how clear the handwriting is and how readable the photo is.
If your results are not accurate, try the following:
Retake the photo in brighter lighting
Make sure the image is sharp and not blurry
Keep the full page inside the frame
Avoid shadows, glare, and dark backgrounds
Upload pages separately if you have more than one page
