Frequently Asked Questions
Does Compalight require internet?
No. Compalight is fully offline. All text editing, OCR, speech recognition, and exports happen on your device. No data is transmitted to the cloud.
How does word-level diff work?
Lock your original text in the Original tab. Edit freely in the editor. The Changes tab shows every modification using color-coding: blue for additions, red for deletions, green for text you moved to a different location.
Can I OCR text from a photo?
Yes. Use the Camera icon to photograph a document or select an image from your photo library. Compalight runs OCR locally on your device using Apple's on-device Vision framework. You can clean up common OCR errors automatically.
What export formats are supported?
Compalight exports as plain text, Word (.docx) with full redline markup, or PDF. You can also copy edited text directly to the clipboard.
Does Compalight collect any data?
No. Compalight collects no personal data. All your text, edits, and changes remain entirely on your device. See the Privacy Policy for details.
How accurate is the OCR?
OCR accuracy depends on image quality, font, and text clarity. Compalight uses Apple's on-device Vision framework. Handwritten text and low-resolution images may have lower accuracy. Always review OCR results before using them.
Can I dictate text?
Yes. Use the microphone icon to dictate text or additional instructions. Speech recognition is handled on-device by Apple's Speech framework. No audio is transmitted.
