FAQ & Troubleshooting
Unable to launch extension / extension grayed out
- Check if your browser version supports extensions; in Safari, extensions must be manually enabled.
- Verify if enterprise security policies or browser policies are blocking third-party extensions.
Poor OCR / image recognition performance
- Try enabling high-accuracy OCR model, or upload clearer images.
- Check if language packs or models need to be downloaded.
No response for mobile text selection
- Android: Ensure Accessibility Service or floating window permission is granted.
- iOS: Use share extension or keyboard extension, as system-level text selection is limited.
