OneTap Translate Puts Translated Text Back on the Screenshot

Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An iPhone Shortcut workflow that translates screenshots in place, returning readable text over the original layout.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-24 issue.

Field notes

The workflow depends on a user-created iPhone Shortcut: Take Screenshot runs first, then passes the image to the app’s Tap to Translate action. The site illustrates the target screens with menus, travel apps, tickets, messages, settings, and receipts. It says version 1.0 keeps screenshots, OCR text, settings, and optional history on the device, while also explaining that iOS requires an explicit trigger rather than silent screen access.
