New functions
Thanks to this function that we can already use in Google Lens, it will be possible to translate a text in any language. You can see how it is used in the post that the company has shared to translate a train ticket. Although this is something that we are going to be able to use with any type of text. So we can use this function especially when we are in another country. Translate has been integrated in this way in Lens, thanks to which we have this function.
Text recognition has also been integrated. When pointing the camera of your phone to any text, it will give the possibility to copy and paste that text in other applications on the device. So we can do what we want with it.
Without a doubt, these new functions are a clear boost for Google Lens. Already in this year's Google I / O it was clear that the application is one of the pillars of the company's new strategy. What do you think of these functions?
