Flow Translate brings translation to your iPhone keyboard. Write messages, emails and posts in your own language, then translate them without switching apps. TRANSLATE WHERE YOU TYPE Choose your source language in the app and your target language on the keyboard. Type your text and tap Translate. The translation replaces your text in apps that support custom keyboards. In fields with a Send or Go key, tapping Translate can also submit the translated message, depending on the app. Prefer automatic translation? Turn off Show Translate button in settings. Flow Translate then translates when you pause typing, without submitting the text. ON-DEVICE TRANSLATION Translation runs on your device using Google ML Kit. Download the required language packs once, then translate offline. An internet connection is needed for initial downloads, purchases and optional account linking. Your text is not sent to our servers for translation.
