## Description

TextGrab extracts text from any photo, screenshot, or document scan so you can copy it instead of retyping it. Point the camera at a page or pick an image from your gallery and the app recognizes the text on device, preserving line breaks and paragraph structure. Recognized results can be edited before you copy them, shared to any app, or saved as a plain text file. Crop to a region when you only need one paragraph, and switch recognition between Latin script and Chinese to improve accuracy on mixed documents. Saved snippets are kept locally so you can return to a result you already captured.
