Copy text on screen from any app, even when normal long-press selection is blocked. AnyCopy combines universal copy through Accessibility with on-device OCR, so you can copy text from images, screenshots, photos, video frames, and app screens to your clipboard. Text recognition runs on your phone, with no cloud upload needed for OCR processing.

Use AnyCopy as a copy text on screen app, an offline OCR text scanner, and a quick copy to clipboard tool for social apps, chats, shopping pages, maps, books, browsers, videos, and more.

Why AnyCopy
- Copy text on any app: select visible text from apps that do not offer normal copy and paste.
- Universal copy mode: use Accessibility to read structured on-screen text quickly and show selectable text regions.
- Offline OCR mode: extract text from screenshots, images, photos, posters, receipts, slides, whiteboards, and paused video frames.
- Copy to clipboard: choose the text you need, then paste it into notes, messages, search, email, documents, or a translator.
- Share selected text: send copied snippets to another app without retyping.
- Works with many scripts: OCR recognizers are included for Latin, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Devanagari text, depending on your device language.

Two ways to copy screen text

Accessibility mode, also called universal copy or global copy, works well for standard app interfaces. Tap the trigger, select the detected text blocks, and copy any text on screen without taking a screenshot.

OCR mode helps when text is part of an image or when an app hides text from Accessibility. AnyCopy captures the screen, runs on-device text recognition, and lets you box-select the result. This is useful when you need to copy text on image offline or extract words from a screenshot.

Common uses
- Copy comments, bios, captions, usernames, product details, tracking numbers, coupons, addresses, and visible links.
- Copy messages or codes from chat apps when direct selection is not available.
- Extract text from pictures, screenshots, scanned pages, menus, receipts, signs, slides, and notes.
- Copy text from screen content in learning apps, ebooks, news apps, shopping apps, browser pages, and video frames.
- Turn copied screen text into something you can search, translate, save, edit, or share.

How it works
1. Open AnyCopy and choose your preferred detection method: Accessibility or OCR.
2. Enable the required permissions for the mode you want to use.
3. Tap the persistent trigger notification when you want to copy text on screen.
4. Select one or more text regions in the overlay.
5. Copy to clipboard or share the selected text.

Permissions and privacy
AnyCopy asks for permissions only to support its copy workflow.

Accessibility Service is used for universal copy. It reads visible on-screen text after you trigger copying, then displays selectable regions so you can copy text from any app.

Screen Capture is used for OCR. It captures the current screen for text recognition on your device, then shows the detected text in the overlay. OCR processing is designed to run locally on your phone.

Display over other apps is used to show the selection overlay. Notification permission is used to keep the copy trigger available when you need it.

For students, professionals, shoppers, readers, travelers, and social media users, AnyCopy helps convert visible screen text into editable clipboard text. Whether you call it universal copy, global copy, copy anywhere, copy any text, or copy text on screen, AnyCopy gives you a focused way to reuse text that would otherwise require manual typing.
