About GlossBook: Book Translator
GlossBook helps you read foreign-language books without breaking your flow. Point your camera at a printed page, tap a word, and get a clear translation that uses the surrounding sentence for context. Instead of stopping to type words into a dictionary, you stay with the book and keep reading. GlossBook is built for readers, language learners, and anyone trying to enjoy printed books in another language. Features: - Context-aware translations based on the surrounding sentence - Phrase detection for more natural results than word-by-word lookup - Tap any recognized word on a printed page to translate it - Camera-based text recognition — no typing required - Translation history stored on your device and organized by book - Export saved words to Anki or Quizlet for spaced-repetition study - Copy translations for notes or study - Choose your translation language - On-device offline translation for supported downloaded language pairs - No account required GlossBook is not a full-page translator. It is designed for the way people actually read: one unfamiliar word or phrase at a time, without losing the thread of the story. GlossBook includes a limited allowance of context-aware online translations. An optional GlossBook Pro auto-renewable subscription, available monthly or yearly, provides continued access to context-aware translations. You can continue using supported on-device translation without subscribing. Your privacy: Camera images stay on your device and are never uploaded. For a context-aware online translation, GlossBook sends only the tapped word, its surrounding sentence, and your chosen translation language. On-device offline translations do not send this text to GlossBook's server. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
