Did you know that you can copy out paragraphs of text from an image without typing them out from scratch? There's actually an easily accessible feature right in your Galaxy phone's Gallery app that lets you do this. 

Step 1. Go to your Gallery app.

Step 2. Select the image you would like to extract text from.

Step 3. Tap on the 'T' icon at the bottom right corner.

Step 4. All text in the image will be highlighted and you can select which text you would like to copy.

If you're in the gallery app, you can also pause a video and as long as text is clear, it works too!
