Is it possible to improve accuracy of get data from photo? Very simple photo turns out to need too much hand correction for iOS 18.4 iPhone 12.

I get more accurate numbers using iPhone shortcut but unfortunately I need to rearrange the numbers into table format

Does more powerful iPhone helps?

    With all due respect, but that's not a "very simple photo"! Check boxes, dashed borders, single borders and double borders doesn't make it easy. My own experience is that if the picture isn't perfect, high resolution and without any disturbing elements, the result of "get data from picture" leaves much to be desired.

    Thanks but my experience is Microsoft products is typically more powerful vs Apple. My 5 years old iPhone without AI free app has much more better accuracy than paid Office 365 which supposed has AI.

    It’s one reason why I still need Apple.
