Phil, there is a Google Translate app for iOS. I don't know if there's a way to 
create a shortcut of some kind to ask Siri to translate something but it goes 
to the Google Translate app instead, though I've heard of assistant finagling 
before so it's probably not out of the realm of possibility.

 

If you just want to be able to navigate by word/character, after you ask Siri 
to translate something, the translation is shown on the screen and you can use 
rotor gestures to read by word/character.

Re: A good translation app for iOS

[Phil Halton]

That is how are used to operate, I would just read the translation on the screen, but then, with iOS 16, the screen reverts back to a Siri screen and illuminates the text from the screen. It’s very frustrating. Maybe there’s a setting that I have to look at in settings app. But again I can’t review the text on screen, because Siri wipes it out and reverts back to the “listen“ screen. Sent from my IPhoneOn Mar 30, 2023, at 3:24 PM, minh Tam ha  wrote:Phil, there is a Google Translate app for iOS.

Re: A good translation app for iOS

[minh Tam ha]

Phil, there is a Google Translate app for iOS. I don't know if there's a
way to create a shortcut of some kind to ask Siri to translate something
but it goes to the Google Translate app instead, though I've heard of
assistant finagling before so it's probably not out of the realm of
possibility.

If you just want to be able to navigate by word/character, after you ask
Siri to translate something, the translation is shown on the screen and you
can use rotor gestures to read by word/character.

Re: A good translation app for iOS

[Phil Halton]

I want to be able to ask my iPhone, “how do I say XXX or whatever, in Spanish“. 
And then I want to be able to review on screen word by word or character by 
character the response. I don’t wanna use a desktop app.
