Been using it for a while and it works quite well for what it is. It also overlays the translated text on the original image which is nice. The translation engine is the exact same one as the one in firefox and its forks, so dont expect deepl levels but its still perfectly fine for most casual use cases.

i use it quite a lot. very useful also in-line translation: you select some text and the context menu offers translation directly without opening the full app.
Cool this is nice! Just confirming, the image translation is only for OCR, right? I mean it doesn't translate a photo of a menu in a restaurant or am I missing something?
Examples on the page seem to indicate it does OCR then translates the OCR text.
It doesn't seem as fancy as some translation tools that overlay the translation, if that's what you meant.
Edit: actually maybe it can - https://discuss.tchncs.de/comment/23834337
yooo this looks dope. Thanks for sharing
Really need it to do Cantonese. That's the only thing keeping me on Google Translate 😓
I'm wondering how ff models compare to smth more modern, like the recent translateGemma stuff (given 12b models reportedly run fine on phones nowadays)
