seeing AI problem with automatic reading on my iphone 13 mini

Hi,
For a few months now, Seeing AI no longer automatically reads the contents of a document on my iPhone 13 mini.
You have to take a photo and scroll through the result, which is much less convenient.
I restarted my iPhone and reinstalled Seeing AI, but nothing works.
I'll try contacting the developer, but I wanted to post here first to ask if other people with the iPhone 13 mini or older are also having this problem.
Perhaps the 13 mini is considered too old to handle auto-reading.

Make sure automatic page detection is turned off.
It's working on my 13 mini.

Hello,
Thanks for the info. Since the interface has been redesigned quite a bit lately, the document detection option should have been enabled without me noticing. automatic reading works properly again.

I think what you are describing is the short text chanel.
I haven't used Seeing AI in a while. I believe it was updated.
I would try enabling it if this is what you are talking about.
