Live Text is an advanced operating system feature built into Apple's iOS ecosystem that allows the device to intelligently recognize, select, and interact with written words appearing within photos, screenshots, or directly through the live camera viewfinder. Powered by on-device machine learning, the feature lets users instantly copy printed or handwritten text, make phone calls by tapping displayed numbers, visit website URLs, convert foreign currencies, or translate languages straight from an image. It transforms static visual media into dynamic, actionable text blocks across applications like Photos, Safari, Camera, and Quick Look without requiring third-party scanning software.
