What Translation HUD does
Translation HUD turns copied text into natural, everyday English. The public Skill data describes the flow as copying text, holding one key, and seeing the English translation above your keyboard.
Why it belongs on the keyboard
Translation is often needed while reading or replying in another app. Keeping it in the keyboard reduces app switching and helps you understand the message before you type back.
Best use cases
This Skill is useful for quick comprehension, chat replies, social posts, and snippets of text. For legal, medical, or high-stakes translation, verify the result with a professional source.
