Yes but that isn't a $12.60 saving!
Can you copy/paste the OCRed text?
Fair enough, what was i thinking?! :-/
Bing Translate also does this too for free..
Looks like it can take photo on the words and then do the translation. Can be useful when travelling overseas.
So can Google translate.
I think the real question is, is it any good? I'm finding Google translate to be a bit lacklustre.
I'm sure I had this when they first made it for iPhone and used to be real cheap. It basically takes photo and change them to editable text as well. I'm buying this.
So I can point it at a foreign street sign and it will translate it to English or is there another app for that ?
Does google do this offline though?
Yep, you just download the language file and bingo bango, offline translation for text and pictures
Doesn't Google Translate do this…for free? http://ccm.net/faq/48883-use-your-phone-s-camera-as-a-transl…
