How to copy text from a screenshot

  1. Add your screenshot

    Drop it on the page, choose it, or paste it with Ctrl + V.

  2. Choose what you want

    Plain text, a Word file, an Excel sheet or a translation.

  3. Press Read

    The AI reads the image, usually in a few seconds.

  4. Copy or download

    Check the result, edit it if needed, then copy it or download it.

Paste it straight in

Take the screenshot as usual, then press Ctrl + V on this page to paste it, or drop the saved file. Icons and decorative symbols are skipped, so you get just the words.

Before you share a screenshot

Screenshots often show names, phone numbers or messages from other people. Crop the screenshot to the part you need before you read it.

How it works

Your browser makes a smaller copy of the image and removes its location and camera details. When you press Read, that copy goes to the AI service we use, which reads the text and sends it back. We keep neither the image nor the text.

The AI reads whole lines in context, which helps with photos taken at an angle, mixed fonts, tables and handwriting. Always check important details such as names, amounts and dates.

Questions

Is screenshot to text free?

Yes. You get 3 free reads a day without signing up, and each image you read counts as one. The count resets at midnight UTC.

Is my screenshot uploaded?

Only when you press Read. Your browser first makes a smaller copy of the image without its location or camera details, then sends it to the AI service we use, which reads it and sends the text back. We keep neither the image nor the text. Every other tool on uncrop.si works on your device and sends nothing.

Can I paste a screenshot?

Yes. Copy the screenshot, then press Ctrl + V anywhere on this page.

Does it copy emoji and icons?

It skips icons and decorative symbols and copies the words.

How accurate is it?

Clear printed text and screenshots come out close to word for word. Handwriting, faded print, glare and very small text are harder, so check names, numbers and dates before you rely on them.

Why is there a daily limit?

Each read runs a paid AI model, so a daily limit keeps the tool free for everyone. Larger limits are planned.
