Today’s featured tech tip….
Copy text from an image with your phone
Did you know you can copy the text that’s embedded in virtually any image using your smartphone?
If you have an iPhone XS, iPhone XR, or later that’s running iOS 15 or later you can use the device’s Live Text feature to extract the text from images.
If you have an iPhone model that doesn’t support Live Text you can still copy the text from images using the “Lens” feature of the popular Google app.
If you have an Android phone you can simply use the amazing Google Lens app.
