nostr:npub1yaul8k059377u9lsu67de7y637w4jtgeuwcmh5n7788l6xnlnrgs3tvjmf Have you seen that Apple added a Translation API?

It already came out with 17.4 according to documentation, but I myself saw no mention of it at the time.

developer.apple.com/documentation/Translation

A WWDC24 video discusses it directly now:

Neat, nice work!

Does the API allow to capture translation results in the background and present them in line in the app native UI?

I would love to have automatically generated translations directly below posts, with no need for a manual step.

Only starting in iOS 18.0.

I think that would feel pleasantly futuristic. That and an icon with backdrop color theming support, I love the new color adaptive icons haha
