How To Use Google Translate Using Your Phone Camera

Do you need to translate something but you don’t know where your phone camera falls in?

Street signs, menus, newspapers, pamphlets. It’s hard enough to travel and even harder when you can’t read the signs. You might try typing each word into Google Translate, but it’s much faster to point your phone’s camera to the words you need to instantly translate and let Google do the rest.

The Google Translate camera tool got an update that adds a whopping 60 new languages to its database, which means you can now translate 88 languages at home or abroad. The update also adds a feature that can detect the language being translated — this is especially useful if you’re somewhere with multiple languages in play.
