Visual Search is worse since it removed the confirm text step
Ever since the "confirm text" step was removed from the visual search, I feel the results have been less accurate and less helpful.

Well, I don't usually save screenshots, but this is what I was able to quickly recreate.
The "Katb Kitab" and "celebration dinner" screenshots are examples of something that happens with less curly lettering as well, but this is the only recent project I could remember off the top of my head.
The "75th anniversary" one is an example of how, even if it initially detects the correct area, sometimes the preview text is off. I don't understand how it can accurately compare text if we can't confirm the text it is supposed to compare before it starts. The 2nd "75th anniversary" screenshot just shows the top examples, which aren't bad, but none of the examples quite match the "A" or "y" -- I know it can't find perfect matches every time, but I was manually able to find a better match on Adobe Fonts that was not even suggested (Plantin). Same for "Celebrating 75 years", which I'd note the first suggestion is not even that stylistically similar.
Thanks for looking into this!

Hi Hannah - can you share the images you were using for visual search? We can try to troubleshoot the issue if we have the same images being used for comparison. Thanks!
