Hi. Need help. Suddenly Text Scanner OCR has stopped Launching Camera. Uninstalled, Installed, no change. What is the resolution? It It was working excellently and all permissions have been granted. Camera Permission is already Granted, but still it doesn't work. Have granted all permissions, uninstalled & installed several time, but using camer it minimizes and does not work.

Very accurate (on first impressions, based on a well lit image but with glossy reflections that made it hard to read from the original image). But the app consistently crashes on tapping the Translate button. Luckily I don't expect to need that function too often, but still. However, this is the most accurate OCR I've seen on android, and TTS, share, etc seem to work ok.
