How to use Google Translate by photo
First of all, to know how to use Google Translate by photo you have to take into account that this function is only available in the app, not the web version of the world's most popular translator.
Therefore, to translate through an image with a text written in one of the more than 100 languages that this app translates, the first thing you have to do is download the application. In addition, we recommend that you also download the languages you use the most or, if you are going to travel to a foreign country, for example, the language spoken in the place in question. Thus, you will be able to translate what you need even if you have connection problems and without the need to spend data. If you don't know how to do it, don't worry, we'll tell you here.

How to translate text on photos in Google Translate
To know how to translate text in photos in Google Translate the first thing you have to do is enter the application and select, at the top, which languages you want to translate.
On the left, select the language in which the text you want to translate is, and on the right yours (you just have to press the down arrow icon in both cases and choose, in the drop-down, among the available languages). You will see that you can directly write the text where it says "enter text", translate by voice (by clicking on the microphone icon) and, finally, through a photo. To do this, locate the camera icon, located on the left as seen in the following image, and follow these steps:
- Press the camera icon.
- On the next screen, the camera will open; Focus on the text you want to translate, in the example it is a book, and you will see that three options appear below: snapshot, scan or import.
- With any of the three options, the application will automatically select the text from the image, as seen below.
- Then, all you have to do is click on the “select all” option and then “continue translation”.
- The selected text will open in the translator, with the copied text in the original language (in this example French) just as if you had written it by hand or cut and pasted, and in the text box Below you will directly see the text translated into Spanish.
Tip: after having tried the different options, snapshot, scan or import, and especially for longer texts, we recommend take the photo first and then import it from the gallery. In this way it is easier to focus, and thus the image will be sharper; the translator will read it better and we will avoid possible errors in the translation that we want to do.
