App that can translate languages by using camera

Fiend · May 29, 2011

So I remember seeing an advertisement on TV showing that an iphone 4 can translate any language to English just by turning on the camera mode and scan it with the camera and English words will appear right before your eyes. What's the name of that app if you know what I'm talking about?

I'm not aware of the app that you are mentioning. But I'm using similar kind of app called Worldictionary which will define & translate any words where your camera is focused.

This app can recognize the words better than the app "WordLens". The only sucky thing about it is the screen size. It also has a nice little Multi-lingual dictionary.
