Is there any OCR service or app for scanning pages, getting text with all the maths. I am a school student and this is very handy for looking for solutions. Previously I was using google lens but not anymore obviously. So anything FOSS or just less Privacy invasive.

I don't know of any solution that would allow to scan entire pages, but here is a local tool to get LaTeX math from images via OCR https://github.com/lukas-blecher/LaTeX-OCR
