Hi, I'm having problems copying text from screenshots in the grafheneos gallery. What could be the problem? Thanks

The problem is, that this feature is not supported. On Stock Android the on-screen text recognition is performed by (what I assume) Android System Intelligence in combination with Google Lens. I haven't gotten it to work on GrapheneOS though, it seems like these apps need deeper system integration which isn't possible right now (and unclear if ever will be).

    splattergames Thanks for your answer, the truth is that it is very cumbersome when you make a screenshot and want to copy the text, I press with my finger on the text but does not get the option to copy text, to have if someday is implemented in grafheneos.

    Not wanna be annoying but as someone who appreciates text... "take a screenshot and copy text" makes no sense.

    Like the feature is for sure cool, but the right approach would be that the screenshot app actually reads the text and overlays it onto the image. But this is only possible with SVGs and PDFs afaik.

    So just copy the text instead of doing screenshots, if you want text.

    Or try to install all the Google stuff there is and give up on privacy, I dont think they do that locally but am not sure.

    OCR is what you are looking for. "Image Toolbox" is said to do that

      and I tried Image Toolbox, it's OCR works great. Install it, from the gallery share a picture to it, select OCR and language, it downloads the dataset and spits out the text

        missing-root interesting, reminds me of how Google Photos (which I have now isolated in my private space, absolutely adore that feature BTW) will download whatever weird AI model it uses for the magic eraser and then do the erasing locally.

        I like that feature a lot, the GOS camera was already pretty good, Google Photos shot it through the roof
