I'm testing out the latest alpha on iOS (haven't tried android yet):

    "@nativescript/mlkit-core": "^3.0.0-alpha.7",
    "@nativescript/mlkit-text-recognition": "^3.0.0-alpha.7"

and unfortunately there seems to be an incompatibility with the popular nativescript-inappbrowser plugin. With all three plugins installed, the "inappbrowser" modal opens and tries to load the source URL, but hangs. This is on a fresh NS app with no other plugins installed.
