Hello, I need to create an application that’s quite simple to describe: two buttons, each taking a picture of images containing text. The text from each image must be extracted, and then the app should indicate whether the extracted texts match or not. Is it possible to do this with Thunkable? Thank you very much.

In short, yes, this can be done via API. Are you familiar with API calls? They are a fairly advanced topic so if you are new, this may be quite complicated.
Hello matt, first of all thanks for your reply. i wanted to try with these two images. My idea is to check if they are identical by extracting text from them. It is possible with Thunkable? any idea/ suggestion? i am stucked…
I don’t know enough about the APIs involved–you’d want to search the forums for previous topics and get an idea of how those Creators did their apps.
If you can grab the data from the API, it may be as simple as then comparing the response. Do the numbers in Image A match what is in Image B. If they do, do this. If they don’t, do something else.
Two good docs to check out in this likely case:
