Get the best quality out of your translations:
- best used on clearly printed text (e.g. signs, menus)
- does NOT recognize handwriting or stylized fonts
- it's not perfect, but you can get the general meaning!
- keep text in focus by holding it at least one hand-length away
(or even further for iPod and iPad owners)
iOS device support:
- iPhone 4S/4/3gs, iPod Touch with video camera, or iPad with video camera
- requires iOS 4.0 or later
*** iPhone 3gs and iPod Touch do not have zoom or flash light features
*** iPod Touch and iPad 2 cameras do not have auto-focus feature, which will result in reduced translation quality

Customer Reviews
Drop the price
drop the price and i'll buy it
i'm not going to spend $20 on one language that may or may not work
too expensive
10$ per language pack is pricey for an app that doesen't work too well...
Too expensive
I find it very expensive to pay 20$ for a language pack- it should be 5$ or so considering its still Beta-ish... It's still all "jittery" and doesnt work 100% of the time do why the 20.00?!? Even the demo is jittery and bit at its best IMO.
