Those who have given the Instant Camera Translation feature on Google Translate a go will know that it’s very much a hit-or-miss experience. Google has given the feature an upgrade to not only make it more accurate, but also to support more languages.
On the better translation front, Google is incorporating Neural Machine Translation into the Google Translate app. This improves translation accuracy by between 55% to 85%. Google says that translations will be better if your device is connected to the internet. But if that’s not an option, the feature can be used offline if you’ve downloaded the involved languages.

You can now get translations from 88 languages to over 100 supported languages using the Instant Camera Translation.
