This same deal was posted 6 months ago here and proved extremely popular. Now all language IAPs are free one more time. Not sure of expiry, so grab this fast. Enjoy :)
With over 1 million downloads and thousands of 5-star reviews, Word Lens is an augmented reality camera that translates signs/menus and any text you point your camera at to your language of choice. The app is free, but each language normally costs $6.49.
Our 2012 ver of Nexus 7 "not compatible w/ this version"?!?
Which devices ARE compatible (& why)?
Thanks mate, that is pure gold.
t25, I had problems trying to download using my own phone using iOS 8.1, however when I used my partner's phone on iOS 7.1.1 all of them went thru fine. I then did a restore purchases on my iOS 8 phone (same Apple ID) and they came across OK…
Excellent news! We cant upgrade our iPad Air to iOS 8 (!)
[We have a 16GB 'Air & need 7GB free (!) Apple sux, IMO!]
PS v3 comes w/ All Languages
Extremely impressive tech, AND useful
yes grabbed it last time it was free, it really does work. Test it on some street signs in Google images to see :)
It's a very entertaining app! I got it last time and was amazed watching the signs and posters around the office translate into English!
Was worth the 370+ upvotes in the last deal. For those who already have the app, the language packs will automatically be activated for free :) Great post, Great App! Thanks
It looks kinda like languages will always be free now based on "what's new" section in Google Play?
Confirmed within the app. This isn't really a deal since it looks like they'll always be free now. It also looks like they've been free for 6 months since the app hasn't been updated since May.
Yeah when it was free 6 months ago I seem to remember the app description on Google Play said they've been bought by Google and now all language packs will be free forever.
edit: looks like we might be wrong. A few web pages in May said the language packs were temporarily free. World Lens website seems to reflect that too.
edit2: …can't find any recent news announcing they are free again though, so I'm inclined to think they've been free since May.
Was invaluable in Germany while enjoying Oktoberfest.
Word lens has been acquired by Google earlier this year making it free since… even though it's for a "limited time" I doubt Google will start charging people to use it.
it crashed on my iphone 6 plus. updated and it is still not working.
Works perfect on my iP6. Try re-booting the phone.
thanks, it works now !!
shame that you still have to buy languages ..
Works on my i6+, just downloaded All languages for Free, in case we are travelling to Europe lol. Now just need Japanese and Chinese Translating :)
error downloading product list. tried both over 4g/wifi.
