Change "save data" setting titile to more appropriate Title #56

as it is now the app remembers the last recognized text. even after closing and restarting app . even after delete cache of app. even after reboot of android. this is bad if last recognized text is sensitive data.

please add feature to forget last recognized text.

perhaps easiest implementation is to forget text after closing app. maybe also an option to forget or to remember on close.

workaround for now is to recognize any other text which is not sensitive data.

Switch off "Save data" in setting under "Other Settings" section.

oh wow. now i feel a bit stupid for not finding that option myself. and i made sure that i searched in the settings before posting the feature request. yet somehow i still missed it. i assume i was tired and my eyes skipped the gray text that explains what "save data" does.

perhaps rename the setting to "keep last recognized text". and/or rename the section to "privacy".

anyway thank you for the heads up and thank you for the great software.
