ANDROID users have just been informed of two helpful tools that can enhance your exotic vacation.
Everyone looks forward to going on vacation – no one looks forward to getting lost in a foreign country or ordering the wrong thing at a restaurant because they can’t understand the local language.

Thankfully, Google has a few tools that can help Android users avoid these blunders while on vacation.
Camera translation
One of the best tools Android users have access to is the ability to translate written with Camera from Google.
It works by letting you translate words to your preferred language just by using the Camera app.
To use this, go to your Camera app, and then at the bottom, tap on Translate.
Next, you will need to point your camera at the words you don’t understand to translate them.
Last, tap on Capture and you should see an instant translation of the captured sentence or phrase.
A second tool you can try out while abroad is called Interpreter Mode.
Interpreter Mode
While this is touted as a tool for business owners, Androids users can also use it for seamless translation in real time.

It helps people engage with others in conversations at hotels, airports, restaurants, customer service desks, and more.
To access this tool, simply tell Google Assistant on your device to be your interpreter for one of the 44 languages available.
The tool is also created with features that help to protect users’ privacy.
It uses no camera, and it doesn’t store any conversations or audio anywhere.
What’s more, no sign-in is required to use the completely free feature.
