Any launcher out there that has offline OCR support in recents menu, like the Pixel Launcher?
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…

That isn't a launcher specific functionality. It's the recent menu on Pixel phones and I guess it should be a part of Android 13, but it might be locked to Pixel phones right now. I'm using a custom launcher on my Pixel 7 Pro and I still have access to the OCR functionality in the recents menu.
I'm also using a custom launcher and a Pixel 7a, and have always had the ability to copy the text from app previews in recents. I only learned the other day that this was Pixel exclusive, I hadn't heard it was supposed to be launcher exclusive.
if it was locked to pixels specifically, devs would've been able to implement it into mods like Pixelify which ports over all Pixel exclusive features, but i don't really know...
I would guess it should be possible. Unfortunately I'm not really active in the modding community these days, so I cannot really recommend anything. It's quite annoying with these Pixel locked features :-\
