If you have a paper document with a long website link, is there a way to scan it with the Note 4 camera or similar function, to be able to go to that website by scanning the link and clicking on it, instead of having to type the entire link into the browser.
 
Thanks, but I tried this App, and when I click on the link, it says, Unfortunately Google has stopped.
 
there's an app called handy scanner that you take a pic of the document and it converts it to pdf.

Works pretty good
 
just type it.

Scanner will always be inaccurate when converting to text, such hassle, typing is way faster.
 
true on the accuracy thing, but it is a pain to have to type a web address as long as say this:

would be much nicer, if you could have just scanned and clicked. oh well
 
Have you tried Evernote? I haven't tried it for this particular purpose, but it has text recognition so it might work.
