Get Text Out of Images
See text in an image you can't select? A screenshot, a PDF scan, a photo of a document? Helperbird can extract it.
Draw a box around the area, and OCR (Optical Character Recognition) converts the image into actual text you can copy, read aloud, or use however you need.

Save as a note: Keep it in Helperbird for later reference.
