Google Translate is a great tool for translating printed communications. It's available on the App Store (for iPhone/iPad) and Google Play (for Android devices).
This free app allows you to translate paper documents into almost any language using your smartphone's camera. To do this, follow the simple steps below.
-
Open the Google Translate app from the list of apps on your smartphone.
-
Select the 'camera' option from the list near the bottom of the screen.
-
Select 'English' in the box on the bottom left of the screen and the language you'd like to translate the document into in the box on the bottom right.
-
Scan the document with your smartphone's camera.
-
Your phone's camera will translate the document on your screen. You can take a screenshot of this and save it to your photos.
