A leaked build of the new version of Google's translation app has shown that the app will now decipher words in images so that users only have to point their phones at a text image for an instant translation.
The new features are being introduced on the app courtesy of Google's acquisition of Word Lens, which already has much of this functionality in place, reported PC World.
It will also feature a new multilingual mode where two people can hold a pseudo-conversation in a different language with Google Translate instantly identifying the language and giving out its translation.
