Apps this Act uses
When to use it
From install to action
Download Acti and enable the keyboard on your iPhone or Android phone.
Add Translate to Any Language in Acti. The Act appears in the Act Panel on your keyboard. You can also assign it to a letter key or add it to your Acti Wheel.
Type the text you want to translate in any text field.
Tap Act on your keyboard and choose Translate to Any Language. If you assigned it to a key, hold that key to run it. The Act asks for one more line: the target language. The translation then replaces the text you typed. Review it before you use it.
What Translate to Any Language does
Translate to Any Language detects the source language automatically and translates your text into the target language you specify, preserving formatting, tone, and facts. You type the text, name the language, and the translation replaces your text in the same text field.
Why it belongs on the keyboard
Translation is usually one step in the middle of a conversation. Doing it on the keyboard means the translated text is already in the field where you need it.
Where it fits
This Act is for writing in another language. To read a message someone wrote to you, Understand Any Language shows an English translation above the keyboard instead. For legal, medical, or other high-stakes text, verify the translation with a professional source.
Translate to Any Language FAQ
Do I need to say what language my text is in?
No. The Act detects the source language automatically. You only name the target language.
What is the extra input for?
The Act asks for the target language, so you can translate into a different language each time.
What happens to my original text?
The translation replaces the text you typed in the text field.
