Field notes
The practice cases include fake delivery texts, requests for gift cards from a “boss,” and bank alerts with wrong links. The page says users can test the checker in airplane mode and explains that screenshot OCR downloads Tesseract only after selection; the image is processed on-device. Results are framed as warning signs, not proof that a message is genuine.
