Translate your on-screen text easily. Just take a screenshot and share it with this app. You can also install a Shortcut for it and use it with your iPhone Action Button or double-tap on the back using Accessibility settings. The app uses on-device translation - text or images never leave your device, and the app works completely offline (requires one-time download of language packs). The list of supported languages is determined by Apple and may vary by iOS version and device. You can do 2 translations per day for free, buy 20 more translations, or subscribe for unlimited translations.
