Live Text is one of those cool, but somewhat niche features in iOS 15 that lets users interact with text in an image like it was text in a document. The feature works in images, videos, and even while looking through the camera lens in real time.
Live Text is a built-in feature on iPhone, iPad, and Mac that recognizes text inside an image or video. From there, you can copy the text, translate it, look up its definition, and much more.
Here's how to use Live Text on your Apple devices.
Live Text lets you copy or share text from images in the Photos app, Safari, and Camera. This handy feature is built into iOS 15, iPadOS 15, and macOS Monterey. But at times, it can cause annoyances while saving images from the web or taking a picture of an object with text. If you don't like this, here are the steps to completely turn off Live Text on your iPhone, iPad, or Mac.
