Here’s an excellent up to date set of resources from Loïs Di Qual for those looking to use the Tesseract optical character recognition library on iOS devices.
The resources include a working version of the library compiled for the iOS platform, a tutorial with source showing how to translate a page of text, and an Objective-C wrapper that makes working with Tesseract much easier.
