Screenshot & Image Analysis Tool

Capture screenshots, select specific areas, and send them to AI for instant analysis. Perfect for studying educational content, understanding diagrams, and getting explanations about visual materials.

Overview

Vihaya's Screenshot & Image Analysis Tool allows you to capture screenshots from any screen, select specific areas of interest, and send them directly to the AI Assistant for analysis. This feature is particularly useful for:

Analyzing educational content and diagrams
Understanding complex visual concepts
Getting explanations about charts, graphs, and tables
Extracting information from images
Learning from visual materials in your notes or courses

Visual Walkthrough

Follow along with this step-by-step visual guide to see how the screenshot tool works.

Access Screenshot Tool

When viewing educational content, notes, or any screen, you'll find floating action buttons on the right side. The screenshot tool (crop icon) allows you to select and capture specific areas of the screen.

Step 1: Educational content screen showing the screenshot tool floating action buttons

Select Area to Capture

Tap the screenshot tool button to enter selection mode. Draw a rectangle around the area you want to capture. You can adjust the corners by dragging the handles to precisely select the content you want to analyze.

Step 2: Selecting a specific area from educational content using the screenshot tool

AI Analyzes & Responds

Once you capture and send the selected area, the AI automatically processes the image. You'll see "Processing image..." status, and then the AI provides a detailed analysis, explanation, or answers to your questions about the visual content.

Step 3: AI chat showing image analysis and detailed explanation of the captured content

How It Works

Open content: Navigate to any screen with content you want to analyze (notes, courses, PDFs, etc.)
Activate screenshot tool: Tap the crop/screenshot icon from the floating action buttons
Select area: Draw a rectangle around the specific area you want to capture
Adjust selection: Drag the corner handles to fine-tune your selection
Capture & send: Confirm your selection to capture the screenshot and send it to AI
AI processes: The AI analyzes the image and provides detailed explanations or answers
Ask follow-up questions: Continue the conversation to dive deeper into the content

Use Cases

📚 Educational Content Analysis

Capture diagrams, charts, or tables from your study materials and get detailed explanations from the AI.

Key Features

✨ Precise Area Selection

Select exactly the area you want to analyze. Adjustable corner handles allow for pixel-perfect selection of content.

🤖 Intelligent AI Analysis

The AI can recognize text, diagrams, charts, tables, and visual elements, providing comprehensive explanations and insights.

💬 Interactive Conversations

After the initial analysis, continue the conversation to ask follow-up questions, request clarifications, or dive deeper into specific aspects.

📱 Seamless Integration

Works seamlessly across all screens in the app - notes, courses, PDFs, and any other content you're viewing.

⚡ Instant Processing

Screenshots are processed instantly. You'll see real-time status updates as the AI analyzes your image.

Best Practices

Select relevant areas: Focus on the specific content you want to understand rather than capturing entire screens
Ensure clarity: Make sure the selected area is clear and readable for better AI analysis
Be specific in questions: After sending the screenshot, ask specific questions to get targeted answers
Use for complex content: This tool is especially useful for diagrams, charts, and visual concepts that need explanation
Combine with text: You can send both images and text messages together for more context
Follow up: Don't hesitate to ask follow-up questions to deepen your understanding

Example Workflow

Scenario: Understanding Energy Bands

You're studying "Electronic Components" and come across a complex diagram showing energy band structures
Tap the screenshot tool and select the area containing the energy band diagram
Capture and send it to the AI
AI analyzes the diagram and provides a detailed explanation of conduction bands, valence bands, and band gaps
You ask follow-up questions like "What's the difference between conductors and semiconductors?"
AI provides comprehensive answers with examples and comparisons

Scenario: Analyzing Comparison Tables

You capture a comparison table showing differences between conductors, semiconductors, and insulators
AI recognizes the table structure and provides a detailed breakdown of each comparison point
You can ask for specific clarifications on any row or concept
AI explains the technical terms and their practical implications

Pro Tips

💡 Tip 1: For better results, capture high-quality, well-lit screenshots. The clearer the image, the better the AI can analyze it.

💡 Tip 2: If analyzing a large diagram, you can capture it in sections and ask the AI to explain each part separately.

💡 Tip 3: Combine screenshots with text questions for more context. For example, "Explain this diagram in the context of semiconductor physics."

💡 Tip 4: Use this tool for quick learning sessions. Capture content from your notes or courses and get instant explanations without leaving the app.
