I’m finding the Live Text feature on iOS to be incredibly useful. For example, it allows me to copy example sentences from the Duolingo language-learning app if I save the sentence as screenshot.
I’d like to access this OCR data for multiple screenshots, either directly on my iPhone (iOS 17) or via my Mac (Big Sur 10.11).
I presume this data is part of the image files’ metadata, or perhaps it’s stored in sidecar files.
Can I extract this data for inspection or automation?
