Description
Google Translate is a versatile translation app on Google Play. It enables text translation between more than 100 languages via manual typing.
It also features instant translation of text within images, activated when the user points their camera. This is available for 94 languages.
Users can also capture or upload images to get improved translation accuracy. A distinct function on Google Translate provides real-time translation of conversations between two languages.
A notable feature is the ability to translate handwriting in 96 languages. Another key feature is the Phrasebook, which lets users save useful translations for later use.
It provides syncing capabilities across devices, which enable the user to synchronize their phrasebook between the app and desktop. Finally, it provides a transcription feature that continuously translates someone speaking in a different language in real time.
The app may ask for permissions such as microphone use for speech translation, camera use for translating image text, external storage use for offline translation data, and contact list access for account setup, but these are not compulsory and the app can still work if the user declines them.
