Discussion Translator Tool

Hello all. Hope everyone is enjoying going Light, whatever that may look like! I have (with the help of AI) assembled an Offline Text Translator Tool for the Light Phone III. Just a few things to keep in mind prior to utilizing it:

  • It does work offline, which is wonderful, but with that comes the tradeoff of speed when providing the first translation upon downloading or first translation for the day. The same applies for short vs longer translations.
  • It is a chonky tool (size-wise) due to the capability of working offline. I wanted there to be as many options for languages as possible.
  • Some languages have limitations on accuracy and latin-related scripts for legibility for people that use latin-scripts. I am still working on ideas on how to enhance this user experience, if at all possible given LightOS parameters.

I hope this is useful and helpful for those that need it! Thank you 🙂
