Description

Copy any text as long as you can see it on your screen!

Featured in Android Authority's Indie app of the day http://www.androidauthority.com/copy-paste-any-text-instantly-366278/

Frustrated because you can't copy some text to clipboard although it looks like it could? This is the app for you - a universal copy and paste solution for Android!

**Only requirement is that your device is able to take screenshots (Using built in hardware short cut keys (preferred) or third party apps)**

Strong points compare to similar apps:
1) Root is NOT required
2) No complicated setup procedures - some apps require user to connect the device to a PC, download some drivers and go through a set of instructions (often painful) to enable auto screenshot. This procedure has to be repeated every time the device reboots.
3) Not running as background service - launches only when you need it.
4) Nothing in notification bar - some apps adds an unremovable notification in notification bar.
5) No internet connection required after initial download.
6) Landscape mode is fully supported.

Weak points:
1) Doesn't take screenshots automatically
2) Screenshots were left in device, requires manual deletion.
3) URLs don't copy well

This app uses OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology to read text from images. Yes it doesn't have to be a screenshot, you may choose any images from your gallery.

Note: OCR result for Arabic, Hindi, Gujarati, Chinese, Japanese and Korean is very bad. (this is due to the OCR engine)

Supports 60 languages:
Afrikaans, Albanian, Ancient Greek, Arabic, Azerbaijani, Bangla/Bengali, Basque, Belarusian, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Esperanto, Estonian, Finnish, French, Galician, German, Greek, Gujarati, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian (Old), Italian, Japanese, Kannada, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Malayalam, Maltese, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian (Latin), Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish (old), Spanish, Swahili, Swedish, Tagalog, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese

Recent changes:
- Updated OCR library from Tesseract 3.0.2 to 4.0.0 for better results. Note that all languages other than the English needs to be re-downloaded via Settings.
- Update to support devices on latest Android versions.

Comments on Copy Text From Screen for Android

★★★★★ A Google User · Jan 9, 2014

Worked really well in an app that doesn't natively support copy and paste. Gave the trial version a spin first, and it worked so well that I decided to purchase the full version. Great job with this app guys, please give us some reassuring that our copied information is not being spied upon by you or the government...

★★★★★ A Google User · May 28, 2014

Really great! This software is especially helpful when copying music titles from the Au dials application. Once the OCR is finished, this app pastes the text to the clipboard. Then it's a simple matter of selecting the actual music file in a file manager and renaming with a paste operation. Thanks so much for the author for a functional and an easy-to-use application!

Just the app I was looking for Works with all apps esp fb, twitter where the stock copy & paste does not work. Anything you can capture on screen can be copied.

Best copy and paste app I have ever used on Android

★☆☆☆☆ Hemant Shah · Dec 10, 2015

Its not supporting Hindi I was using Trial Version, that time Application was supporting Hindi. Now Hindi is not being supported in Paid Version. What is reason ? Do needful.

Laugh It doesn't do what it says it does no copy text would like a refund

★☆☆☆☆ Teng Yang Hsiao · Dec 23, 2020

Many said supported languages are not available in practically direct from this software. At the end given up using this stupid software.

★☆☆☆☆ A Google User · Nov 25, 2014

Bad app want my money back Don't waste your money. A ripoff. Never worked once. I tried other text copy apps, they were buggy but at least were free.
