Hey, has anyone had any experience with the language translation apps on FDroid? I am traveling soon and I am looking at an offline translation app to use while in airplane mode (no data roaming - I’m cheap, haha) and one that I can do near-realtime voice translation, not just text translation.
“Translate You” looks good but I cannot determine if it is available to use offline.
“Offline Translator” looks very promising but it doesn’t do voice translation - just text
As I can see it’s oriented towards desktop and the app doesn’t have a choice to use a local model so there is much to be done programmatically, search for something on Aurora.
Also I don’t know what would be the speed since it will be done on CPU.
While we were chatting, I tried the Offline Translator and when trying to use the camera for OCR the app crashed - I will try Translate You next and also look through the Aurora store - thanks for the help
The crash might have to do something with a specific not supported setting of the bottom back camera that focuses near, probably the app selected that camera based on the focus parameters but it tried the setting that doesn’t work, it also crashes the camera app.
It’s the 1080p mode for video. So it’s probably not that because it would try to take a photo.
Maybe you can feed it with an already taken photo.
