Seamless Text Extraction: My Take on Universal Copy
From the first time I activated Universal Copy, I was amazed by how effortlessly I could capture text from any appâeven those that normally block copying or embed text within images. With a single tap, the appâs Normal mode scanned Facebook comments and Instagram captions in an instant, while its Scanner mode flawlessly extracted text from screenshots in multiple languages using OCR. The intelligent entity detection instantly highlighted addresses, emails, and hashtags, enabling me to launch Google Maps or translate passages without ever leaving the screen.
I especially appreciated Scroll mode when compiling long articles across multiple pages, and Harvest mode became my goâto for gathering every tagged username in a thread. Setting up the accessibility service was straightforward, and the unobtrusive adâfree experience in Universal Copy Plus keeps me focused on productivity. Universal Copy has truly transformed the way I interact with text on my Android device, and I canât imagine going back to manual copying ever again.
