As a developer you don't always find code in text format, quite often it's a:

Video format - youtube / pluralsight tutorial.
Image format - from lazy friends or lazy bloggers.

In every instance you need to write it down character by character. But not with Textocry!

Using Textocry you can select the area/image with the text and let TesseractJS extract the text for you, load it into your Clipboard and you can paste it anywhere!

Textocry can extract any text, it's not meant just for code.

Example usage can be seen in the video above.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Textocry - copy text from images requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

High Allows reading and modifying clipboard content, which can be sensitive, posing a moderate privacy risk.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Chrome extension may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Chrome extension reputation on Chrome Web Store, the amount of time the Chrome extension has been around, and other signals about the Chrome extension. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Chrome extension.

Textocry - copy text from images may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
