If you’re not on iOS 17, this app does the same thing: https://apps.apple.com/de/app/laundry-lens/id1513767864?l=en-GB

Thanks! I didn’t know I wanted that. Here’s me with a small poster hanging in my laundry room like a Neanderthal!

These new symbols are awesome. The car ones are cool too. I'm all for having the photos app get smarter and smarter. I've been using it a lot for the text copy-paste functionality to look up info about my appliances by taking a picture of their model numbers

Doesn’t work for me. I’ve tried it on several labels and nothing happened each time. Yes, I’m on iOS 17.
