TransPeek vs Hanzi

Read any screen in your own language — games, videos, comics, chats and websites, without leaving the app you're in. TransPeek floats a small window over whatever you're doing, reads the text on screen and shows the translation right there. Text recognition and translation both run on your device. FLOATING WINDOW Drag the window over the text you want to read. It translates what sits just below it, sentence by sentence, with the original line above each translation, so you can read both at once. Move it and it follows along. RARE WORDS, MARKED FOR YOU Learning a language? TransPeek marks the less common words in each sentence and highlights the matching words in the translation, numbered so you can pair them up. Set your reader level for each language and it only marks what you're likely not to know yet. FIXED REGION For subtitles, game dialogue or speech bubbles that always appear in the same place: mark those areas once and TransPeek keeps translating them. The window takes the shape of what you marked — wide and short for a subtitle strip, tall for a column of bubbles. PHOTO TRANSLATION Take a photo or pick one from your library — menus, signs, letters, product labels — and translate the text in it. Photos never leave your device. SHORTCUTS, SIRI AND CONTROL CENTER Start the floating window or a fixed region from Control Center, Siri, Spotlight or the Shortcuts app. Pair "Take Screenshot" with "Translate Screenshot" to translate whatever is on screen with one tap; on iOS 26, with the language already downloaded, the result appears without leaving the app you're in. 20 LANGUAGES, ANY PAIR English, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Italian, Thai, Vietnamese, Arabic, Dutch, Hindi, Indonesian, Polish, Turkish and Ukrainian — translate between any two. Translation is powered by Apple's on-device engine; once a language is downloaded, it works offline. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no cloud and no tracking. Your screen is processed on your iPhone or iPad and is never uploaded. MAKE IT YOURS Choose the window's shape, border colour and text theme. Every translation is kept in your history on this device, with stats for the week. PRICING Try everything free for 3 days. The trial starts with your first screen translation, not when you install. After that, a one-time purchase unlocks TransPeek Pro for good — no subscription. Pro owners can gift a friend a code to unlock Pro at a gift price. How to start: pick your languages, tap Start Floating Window, then choose TransPeek in the system's screen broadcast sheet. Switch to any app and the window comes with you.

Hanzi turns any Chinese app into English, right on top of what you were doing. Shopping, food delivery, payments, banking, maps, social feeds: tap once and the whole screen comes back in English, every word sitting exactly where the Chinese was. Close it and you are still in your app, ready for the next tap. No more screenshot, switch app, upload, squint, switch back. WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT • The screen, not a word list. Hanzi rebuilds the page in English, same place, same size, so buttons, prices and menus still make sense. • Deals decoded. Chinese discounts are converted properly: 88折 becomes 12% off, 万 becomes 10,000, and prices stay untouched. • Text inside pictures too. Banners, product photos and posters are translated where the text sits. • Traditional and Simplified Chinese, even mixed on the same screen. • Swipe to compare with the original Chinese at any time. • Pinyin and copy: open any translated screen as text, with the Chinese and pinyin for every line, and copy what you need. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Hanzi reads and translates on your iPhone or iPad with Apple's on-device engines. Your screens are never uploaded, not to us and not to anyone. It works offline once the language packs are installed. No account, no sign-up. SET UP ONCE, USE EVERYWHERE The first launch walks you through a one-minute setup. After that, a floating on-screen button (or a double-tap on the back of your iPhone) translates whatever is on screen. GREAT FOR • Living in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan or Singapore • Travelling in China with apps that only speak Chinese • Shopping on Chinese marketplaces and tracking deliveries • Reading payment, bank and utility notifications • Anyone who wants to read Chinese apps without switching the whole phone's language Hanzi translates Chinese into English only. The app itself is in English. HANZI PRO Try Hanzi on a sample screen and translate your first real screen before you decide.
