Does the Google extension that scans text from a webpage work reliably for extracting content?

I think the issue with the Google extension scans text from a webpage is that it’s not designed for super complex or modern sites. It’s great for simple pages, but anything with dynamic content or heavy JS just breaks it.

I’ve been using Evernote Web Clipper as an alternative. It’s not perfect either, but it’s more consistent, and you can edit the content after clipping.

Also, if you’re dealing with text in images, Google Keep has a decent OCR feature built-in. It’s not as seamless as an extension, but it works in a pinch.
