Text
The Text Recognition feature automatically detects text within captured photos.
You may provide an image either via Camera or File by selecting the corresponding button.
The available recognition options are Basic Description, Vehicle Plate, and Retail Receipt.
Note: please allow a few minutes for the text detection to be completed. The Retail Receipt also takes a longer time to process compare to Basic Description and Vehicle Plate.
After clicking on the Submit button, a 
pin will be added on the map.
In the example below, one photo is submitted using the Retail Receipt option.
For Community Alias users, clicking on 
-> Result will send the the text detected to be posted on https://hub.aunsw.88.io and https://hub.quuvoo4ohcequuox.0.88.io if Camera - Text is selected in the Publish Pins menu.
