What is Live Text on iPhone?

One of the coolest features of an iPhone is the ability to copy text from any photo or document.

Here’s how to do it!

First, launch your camera app and aim it at the item with the text you wish to capture.

Once you have taken the photo, tap the generic area of text.

A yellow bracket will form around it and then tap the “Live Text” icon.

After you have selected the text you want you can:

  • Copy the text and paste as per needed.

  • Select all the text in the image.

  • Look up to search for the text you selected on the web.

  • Translate it to convert the text into a supported language.

  • Or share the text via text, email, whatsapp or email.

Pretty cool right?

Try it out!
