Microsoft is set to introduce a text extraction feature within its Phone Link app, enabling Windows users to effortlessly grab text directly from photos on their linked Android devices.
This upcoming functionality harnesses optical character recognition (OCR) technology to automatically identify and extract text from images, making it easier than ever to transfer information between your smartphone and PC.

The update, currently available in Release Preview Insider builds, is expected to roll out to all Windows users shortly.
