Suggestion on a way to translate some text in an image? - Moooookie - Nov 29, 2024
So I have an image, that has text on it written in another language, and I need to translate that text to English. What is the easiest way to go about doing this?

Google translate should do it

Google Translate would do this easily. Get it on your phone and it'll translate the text live

Did the Google Translate app work Moooookie?
Curious because I've always used OCR to grab text from an image in the past.

This is what I normally use for grabbing text off images, as it works extremely well. But since I was trying to translate the text, I assumed there had to be a way to pull the text off the image, and translate it at the same time all in one step... rather then using the OCR to grab the text, and using something else to translate the text once it's been retrieved.
To answer your question, yes it worked surprisingly well.. and it was super easy to use. Download app. Load image. Select the language in the image, and then select the language you want to convert to.. and it's done. Great app.

Ahh but you need to know what the language already is prior to translating it? There's no option to have it auto-detect the language
edit: Just checked the browser version, turns out you can do it on PC as well:

It can auto detect the language as well.. there is an option labeled AutoDetect. I just happened to do it manually the first time, as it was my first time using the app and still learning it.
