Add-on for MakeACopy.\n\nAs well as this one:\n\nf-droid.org\n\n### Offline Translator | F-Droid - Free and Open Source Android App Repository\n\nOn-device translation of text and images, with TTS\n\nWhich works well enough for translation, but OCR is kinda weak.\n\nSo… what other alternatives are there?",
