An option that enables interaction with any type of text, symbols, or subjects that the framework recognizes.

```
static let automatic: ImageAnalysisInteraction.InteractionTypes
```

## Discussion

People can select text to perform actions, and after tapping the
Live Text button, they can interact with data detectors. If the
[`allowLongPressForDataDetectorsInTextMode`](/documentation/VisionKit/ImageAnalysisInteraction/allowLongPressForDataDetectorsInTextMode)
property is `true`, a person can touch and hold text to activate data detectors without tapping the Live Text button.
