Chat Translator helps you communicate across languages in WhatsApp and other messaging apps. Choose your language and your chat partner’s language, then translate a reply or an incoming message. Features: • Write a reply or read a message in the app, then copy or share the result. • Use the translator keyboard to prepare translated replies in other apps. • Share text or a screenshot to Translate Incoming; screenshot text is recognized on your device. • Download supported conversation languages for on-device translation. • Keep conversation settings and translation history on your device. Translation uses Apple’s on-device technology. There is no translation subscription, paid translation API, or cloud translation fallback. Supported languages and device availability depend on Apple’s Translation framework. The main app and incoming translation require iOS 18 or later. Keyboard translation requires iOS 26 or later and downloaded languages; earlier versions can insert the original draft. To use the keyboard, add TranslatorKeyboard in Settings > General > Keyboard > Keyboards. Full Access allows the keyboard to share conversation settings and history with the app. Messages are translated on your device. Incoming translation is always initiated by you through the share/action menu. The app does not read messages in the background. It is an independent utility and is not affiliated with WhatsApp or Meta. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
