PlayTranslate is a real-time screen translation app for Android that captures game or app text via OCR and translates it, with support for 23 game languages and 59 user languages. It includes offline OCR and dictionaries, furigana/pinyin reading hints, word lookup, text-to-speech, Anki export, and Yomitan dictionary integration.
Use cases

- play visual novels in japanese without knowing the language
- look up unknown words while gaming with a floating lens
- create anki cards from game dialogue automatically
- read manga or camera text with live translation
- add furigana or pinyin over game text while learning
- translate games offline without internet
When to choose
- you play Japanese or other-language games on Android and want instant translation
- you are a language learner who wants word lookup, furigana, and Anki export while gaming
- you need offline OCR and dictionary lookups on a handheld Android device
- you use a dual-screen device like the Ayn Thor or split-screen gaming
When to avoid
