How to get text as displayed in the UI instead of getting the text value

I am trying to capture the UI text as displayed rather than capturing the text value itself. When using different fonts size and screen sizes the text rendered by OS could be displayed as truncated or clipped.
Can TestComplete do this for iOS and Android?
Thanks

  Thanks Marsha
  Instead of comparing pictures, we want to extract the exact text as displayed in the UI.
  Do you have any approach for this?
  Thanks

    How would you do this test manually? You're either comparing text or viewing the UI, right? TestComplete just does what a user would do.
    
    What is it about comparing pictures that wouldn't work for you?
