It is possible to scan something in real-time or pick an image from the gallery of your mobile device when you are using it. You can use the Google Translate app to scan a picture and translate it into a language that Google Translate or vice versa support. The following is a step-by-step guide on how to do that.
When it comes to translating pictures on your iPhone, iPad, or Android phone, you have two different ways in which you can use the Google Translate app.
Using Google Translate on your phone is the first step to being able to translate a picture in real-time. Open the Google Translate App. It should look like this, similar to the photo provided below.
If you are using the Translate app on your mobile device, you will find the “Camera” button near the bottom of the screen, underneath the text box.
You will then be able to see your camera view. Choose the language located at the top screen that you would like to translate your picture from and to.
By selecting “Detect Language” in the source language field of the app, you will be able to make the app automatically recognize your native language.
When viewing the camera view, tap the “Instant” icon at the bottom.
The best way to translate a picture is to point your phone’s camera at the picture you want to translate. Your picture will be translated with the help of the app.
Alternatively, if you would like to take a still image and then use the app to translate it, you can tap “Scan” and then take a picture, then let the app translate it for you.
That’s it! Now you can easily translate any language through the help of Google Translate.
