FOSS alternative to google lens: offline translator (f-droid.org)

This app is a small jewel:

offline translation thanks to firefox translation engine
OCR on images with tessercat
overlay of translated text on the original image -> awesome!

It's still a young app, but it's really important to go towards de-googling!

Whats your test phrase? That seems interesting

it would be translated to English as "i don't wish you a happy birthday" but "happy birthday" is so common, it is quickly enveloped in "happy birthday", "joyeux anniversaire".

plus some other simple plays on common sayings.
