You probably know that Yandex.Translate can be used for translating text in photos. Well, now you can do it offline, at least with popular language pairs.
You can also translate Arabic text in images, and get a new set of offline dictionaries, like Czech-Russian, Japanese-English, and English-Finnish.
Also, the previous version had an issue that caused the sound to occasionally come from the speakers instead of the headphones — that’s fixed now.
