Fantastic! I have a question regarding the app. I understand that it can translate words and text from pictures, but I also noticed a microphone feature which I assume is for voice dictation. How does the app process voice input? Is the voice data sent to a server for translation, and if so, who is responsible for handling this data?
There seems to be a discussion tab for questions on the git page, but it seems a bit dead in there…
I did find a possible answer in the issues but I don’t know what it really means.
Fronm this I guess it either used Google online, or some local voice to text included in the Google services.
Thanks for this, yeah I also looked at the privacy policy on GitHub and it was pretty well bare bones. I haven’t ever used the voice to text function nor the dictation abilities on my phone due to Google services having mostly a monopoly over crunching the data. I know that now days we are starting to see more A.I driven services, and I’d admit that I am not 100% in the know, but I’d assume that Google will be handling this part of the translation as it’s reliable and free.
You might like the FUTO voice input app.
This is incredible, thanks for the heads up, I’ve been looking an app like this for a good while.
