Download & use Google Translate


Step 1: Download the Google Translate app

To get started, download the Google Translate app for Android.

Note: To translate images with your camera in all supported languages, your device must have an auto-focus camera and a dual-core CPU with ARMv7. For technical details, check your manufacturer’s instructions.

Step 2: Set up Google Translate

The first time you open Google Translate, you’ll be asked to choose your primary language and the language you translate most often. To pick from available languages, tap the Down arrow Down Arrow.

To download both languages for offline use, leave "Translate offline" checked. If either language isn’t available for download, it will say "Not available offline."

Note: To download a language, by default, you must be connected to a Wi-Fi network.
