Capture clear printed text
Read offers Manual and Auto capture and is designed to organize tables, columns, and other structured page layouts into a spoken reading order.
Keep in mind
- Recognition depends on page position, lighting, focus, glare, and printed-text quality.
- Layout recognition varies by format, so some layouts may be recognized and read better than others.

Things to try and practical limitsSuggested activities, configuration details, and practical boundaries.
Ways to explore this area
- Try representative printed materials under the lighting and page-position conditions expected in use.
- Compare Manual and Auto capture, including the selected delay and haptic cues.
- Observe whether Word or Sentence navigation, voice speed, and highlighting are understandable for the intended task.
- Include a poor capture and confirm that recapture, crop, restore, or rotation is understandable.
Configuration details
- Auto-Focus Before Capture, Capture Delay, Progressive Haptic Feedback, Enable Flash, and Show Manual Rotation Button change capture behavior or visible controls.
- Text-to-Speech engine, voice, playback speed, highlighting, and segmentation settings change spoken review.
Considerations and limitations
- Read is designed to organize tables, columns, and other structured page layouts into a spoken reading order, but some layouts may be recognized and read better than others.
- Handwriting, glare, shadows, blur, and page angle can reduce recognition quality.
- Recognized text should be checked against the printed source when exact wording matters.
- Flash and manual rotation controls appear only when enabled, and the configured post-capture destination can change the next screen.
- Opening Camera again starts a new capture session and clears the current captured-text session.
