Onscreen Translate vs PollyTap

Translate text in screenshots, photos and your camera view. Read the translation on the image, compare it with the original, and copy or share the text. Add the screenshot shortcut and assign it to Back Tap or a supported Action Button. Video guides walk you through setup. Add the camera widget for quick access from your Home Screen or Lock Screen. Text recognition runs on your iPhone. Some translations send recognized text through our Cloudflare service to Google Gemini. Screenshots and camera frames stay on your device unless you choose to share them. Online translations use request limits to keep the service available. Paid subscriptions and subscriptions redeemed with offer codes use the same limits. Apple translation is available when the required languages are installed, including when an online request is unavailable. Apple may ask you to download language files before translating. Downloaded Apple languages can be used offline. Background screenshot previews require iOS 26 or later; earlier supported versions open the app. Camera translation requires a supported iPhone. Language availability and translation quality depend on your device and the translation service. Small text, low light and movement can affect results. Try the free access shown in the app, then subscribe to keep translating. Monthly and annual plans include all translation features. Eligible new subscribers can try them free for seven days when offered by Apple. After the trial, your selected plan renews at the price shown before purchase unless canceled. Prices vary by region. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account subscription settings. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.

Read foreign-language text in screenshots with PollyTap. Capture a menu, message, sign, or web page, then view its translation over the original image. Compare the original, zoom into small print, or open the recognized and translated text in a readable list. A SHORTCUT FOR YOUR SCREEN The Setup tab helps you add the supplied shortcut, which takes a screenshot and sends it to PollyTap. Assign it to the Action Button on a compatible iPhone, use Back Tap, or run it from Shortcuts. You can also choose an existing screenshot inside the app. READ, COMPARE, AND RESCAN • Automatically detect the source language or choose it yourself. • Choose the language you want to read. • View translated text in place on the screenshot. • Compare the result with the original image. • Zoom and Rescan for a closer reading of a difficult area. • Use Full text to read or copy the recognized and translated text. • Download supported language resources ahead of time for offline translation. • Use menus and instructions in 23 app languages. FREE WITH ADS Screenshot translation and rescans are free. There is no account, trial, subscription, purchase, or daily rescan limit. Banners and occasional interstitial ads support the app. A missing ad does not prevent translation. APPLE TRANSLATION ON YOUR IPHONE Text recognition uses Apple Vision, and translation uses Apple’s Translation framework. Recognition and translation take place on your iPhone. Compatible devices can use Apple’s high-fidelity translation strategy, with traditional Apple translation available on supported devices without Apple Intelligence. PollyTap requires iOS 26 or later. Available translation languages depend on Apple’s software and your device. Initial language downloads require internet access. Ads use internet access and are subject to privacy and tracking choices. A translated screenshot is a still image: return to the original app to scroll or interact. Recognition and translation can make mistakes, particularly with small, decorative, or mixed-script text. Compare the original and use Rescan when needed.
