But that's not all! MenuMunch also lets you share your newfound culinary delights with friends and family via text messages. Planning a meal with loved ones has never been easier, and together, you can transform dining out into a delightful social experience.

Instructions:
When you grant both camera access permission AND location tracking experience (while using the app):
1. Scan the restaurant name from a paper (hardcopy) menu. The scanned area is the white box in the middle of the app screen. You can also manually enter the restaurant name in the text field titled "Tap to enter restaurant name"
2. Recognized text is displayed in  highlighted green color inside the rectangular box in the middle of the screen
3. Tap the box (or boxes) in sequence to construct the restaurant name. Press the done button in the keyboard
4. Scan any single menu item. The scanned text should be inside the white box in the middle of the app screen. You can also manually enter an item name in the text field titled "Tap to enter menu item"
5. Again, tap on the green highlighted boxes of recognized text  inside the rectangular box in in the middle of the screen
6. Submit the menu item by pressing the done button in the keyboard

You will see a bouncing blue indicator at the bottom of the screen. The menu item details (relevant pics, ratings, brief description, drink & food pairings & a screenshot sharing button) are all displayed on the subsequent screen. Click on the star ratings to read detailed reviews (for this specific item or generic restaurant reviews if the item reviews are not available). You can search for additional menu items by popping back to the main scanning screen.

Some additional buttons appear on the main scanning screen:
- A flashlight button in the upper left corner to turn on/off the camera flashlight
- A camera switcher in the upper right corner to switch between the default rear camera to the front facing camera
- A restaurant switching button in the lower left corner to permit users to switch to a different restaurant. And start menu item searches at a different restaurant.

Additional instructions when you deny either camera access permission OR location tracking experience OR both:
1. You will see an initial text entry field "Tap to enter location info". Enter the city name or street address of the restaurant. Press the done button
2. Manually enter the restaurant name in the text field titled "Tap to enter restaurant name". Press the done button
3. Manually enter an item name in the text field titled "Tap to enter menu item". Press the done button

You will see a bouncing blue indicator at the bottom of the screen. The menu item details (relevant pics, ratings, brief description, drink & food pairings & a screenshot sharing button) are all displayed on the subsequent screen. Click on the star ratings to read detailed reviews (for this specific item or generic restaurant reviews if the item reviews are not available).
