Description

Instantly translate printed words from one language to another with your built-in video camera, in real time! (PLEASE NOTE: LANGUAGE PACKS MUST BE PURCHASED FROM WITHIN THE APP.) Use Word Lens on vacation, business travel, and just for fun.

Buy language pairs using in-app purchase:
- French to English
- English to French
- Spanish to English
- English to Spanish

Try out the included modes first so you can see the technology in action. These built-in examples recognize words in English, Spanish, and French.
- Reverse Words (spell all words backwards)
- Erase Words (digital white-out)


Word Lens gives you translation on the go:
- NO NETWORK required - results appear immediately on your video screen when you need it, anywhere in the world.
- Easy to use, like the regular camera
- Look up translations by typing them in, too


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

I Want JAPANESE! (1 star)
Please make Japanese to English! Then I will buy it! I really want Japanese to English!

Instant and amazing! (5 stars)
I hardly thought it would be possible to get live translation without the internet! It's fast, easy and you can even look up words. It's like having a dictionary in the palm of your hand but without flipping through pages and feeling like a tourist. It's so clean and fast, I love it!

Incredible! (5 stars)
Paid for the dictionaries and I have to say I am amazed!!! The translation is good enough to give a general idea of what is written. Not magical perfect translation, buy magical good enough! This is an incredible App!!! Well worth the 9.98 upgrade for both dictionaries. Hopefully they will be able to add more languages soon. I will certainly be happy to pay for them.

As for all of the bad ratings, for shame! This app is fantastic, s
