I got a similar solution on iOS as a shortcut connected to the action button. Some apps doesn’t allow easy text copy. Or when it’s in a foreign language. It does:
- take screenshot
- extract text from it
- translate the text to english. Auto detects source language
- show both original and translated text in quick view where you can select and copy if desired.
Here is a implementation you can try:

While on the subject of iOS. In recent versions when you open a photo in the photos app you can also select the text in the photo by hand and copy it.
