Gboard is about to learn a little trick from Google Lens: scan text. According to findings found by 9to5Google in the app’s APK, an additional tool that will act as OCR scanning will soon be added to the Google keyboard.
The new tool, which emulates Google Lens, will be called Text Scan and will allow us to capture real-world text with the mobile camera and embed it into any app we can type into. So the idea is We do not have to rewrite a text that is in front of us and you’ll be able to do everything from Gboard without having to switch to Google Lens.
Imagine you have a long text printed in front of you and for some reason you need to type it on your mobile phone. There’s little point in rewriting everything when Android phones already have a feature. OCR technology (optical character recognition) is integrated into Google Lens quite well.
You can always open Google Lens, take a photo of the paper and save its text, but in the future Gboard will save you from the extra steps. integrating the text browser into the keyboard itself as an additional appropriately named tool Scan text.

Scan Text Although it appears to be functional (if forced to enable) in the beta version of Gboard, it is not yet active for users. We will need it when activating it from Gboard tools give permission to use the camera and after doing this we will see the camera where the keyboard was before.
When the shutter button is pressed, text recognition begins with the same Google Lens technology and the detected text is highlighted. Next step What interests us is to select the text and add it In the application in question, it is as if we wrote it ourselves.
It’ll probably be one of those things we don’t use every day, but it’s We will be very grateful when we need it (if we remember its existence). Now we need to wait for Gboard to activate it for users.
