Snap: Camera Voice Translator

Read a menu, sign or contract in your own language: point the camera and the translation appears over the real text.
Snap is a translator app for iPhone and iPad that translates camera text, photos, screenshots, PDFs, typing and speech between more than 130 languages.

Read it
• You see the translation drawn over the real text while you move the camera.
• You pick a photo or screenshot from your library and translate the text in it.
• You translate a PDF and export the result as a PDF.

Understand a document
• You photograph or import a rental contract, official letter or form and get a plain-language explanation in your language.
• You let the AI read the fields of a PDF form, check the answers it drafts, and export the finished PDF.

Talk with someone
• You use two-way voice mode to translate what each person says and hear the translation read aloud.
• You type with Snap Keyboard in any app that allows custom keyboards to translate, correct grammar, change tone and draft replies. Full Access must be turned on.

Sell something
• You photograph an item and get a title and description sized for Vinted, OLX or Facebook Marketplace.
• You paste the text yourself. Snap never posts anything.

Keep your translations
• Snap saves every translation on your phone together with its photo.

Good for
• Travelers reading menus, street signs and train timetables.
• Anyone who needs to understand a contract, official letter or form in a language they do not read.
• Talking with someone at a hotel desk, a pharmacy counter or in a taxi.
• Selling used things online without writing the listing by hand.

Works offline
• You can translate typed text, camera text and photo text with no internet connection after you download the language pair in the language picker.
• Offline translation uses Apple's on-device language packs, so the offline languages are the ones Apple supports on your device.
• For offline use, choose the source language yourself. Automatic language detection needs a connection.
• Text is read from the camera on the phone for Latin, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Devanagari scripts. Other scripts need a connection.
• Voice mode, document explanation, PDF form filling, the listing writer, keyboard AI actions and any language pair you have not downloaded need internet.

Privacy
• No account or sign-in is needed. Snap works as soon as the app opens.
• History and your saved form details stay on your phone.
• Text is read on the device when possible. Some features send a photo or text to a cloud service to read, translate or explain it. The data travels over an encrypted connection and is not stored on Snap servers.
• Usage statistics are collected without translated content.

What Snap is not
• Snap is not a certified translator. Translations and explanations can contain mistakes.
• Snap is not legal advice. Document explanations help you understand a text, and a lawyer checks a contract.
• Snap does not post listings or send forms for you.
