This thread aims to create a focused thread of all discussion about Translate You such that it will be easier to follow than finding replies relevant to Translate You in the “megathread” above. I also opened this thread to invite any new discussion from those who didn’t take a look at the megathread. * * * Existing discussion: > [@Alternative to Google Lens for camera translation?](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/alternative-to-google-lens-for-camera-translation/17717/1): > > I found “Translate you” on Github which has image OCR + translation but it’s not really useful. > [@Translation software/services](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/translation-software-services/12645/8): > > Translate You is the better because it allows you to choose between a dozen frontends, and support local OCR to get a hacky image translation (all format will be lost) > [@Translation software/services](https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/translation-software-services/12645/12): > > Seeing the “Translation You” GitHub, there’s an option for DeepL if you want to switch to it. ### Section on Privacy Guides Language Tools --- ## Post 2 by @user1 — 2024-01-12T16:50:42Z Apparently the app just sends the texts to different online translation services so privacy policies of every service still apply > Third party cloud service dependencies > **Data collected by others** > Use of Translate You may result in one or more of the following third party organisations may collecting data from you.
