is there any launcher out there which has got offline OCR support in recents like the Pixel Launcher? Not talking about the Google lens implementation in recents menu here. I uninstalled the Google App from my phone using SD Maid. The custom rom I use(EvolutionX) does have launcher3 as its default(basically identical to Pixel launcher in every aspect, just without that Select/OCR in recents menu, and its got a bit more customisability since it’s open source), but being able to select images/text right from the recents menu without having to connect to the internet was something that I found to be a really powerful tool. miss having it handy whenever I needed it…

recents menu: overview, that pops up when you swipe up from the home bar

Yeah idk for me that just opens my app drawer :D

He means the recent apps or app overview feature. If you drag up from bottom and hold for a few seconds you get a thumbnail view with all the recent apps opened on your phone. In that view, you can select text seen inside the app.

Guess it's something Google specific, never seen that.
