Quick overview
Translate Keyboard+ changes how you translate text inside other apps by embedding a translator directly in your keyboard, so you never have to jump between programs. It supports more than 100 languages — for example, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and English — and helps remove language obstacles. The app also saves recent translations and lets you mark favorites, making repeat use faster and more convenient.
Using the keyboard (step-by-step)
- Tap the Translate button to run a translation of the text you’ve entered.
- Enter the words or sentence you want translated.
- Pick the language you want the text converted into.
- Hold down the Globe key on the keyboard to switch to Translate Keyboard mode.
- Open the keyboard inside any app where you’re composing text.
Key benefits
- Keeps your typing flow uninterrupted by translating inside the app you’re using.
- Lets you flag frequently used translations for quick recall.
- Handles conversations in many different languages without leaving your current task.
- Stores recent translations so you can review or reuse them later.
Privacy and permissions
Translate Keyboard+ requests Full Access to interact with the built-in translator smoothly. The developers indicate that only the last sentence in the text field that’s currently focused is accessed for translation, helping limit what’s sent to the translator service.
Paid tier details
Upgrading to Translate Keyboard+ PRO removes advertisements and unlocks unlimited translation and access to your full translation history.
