CPT is an OCR translation app that lets you capture text with your camera and instantly translate it into your desired language. Simply point your camera at signs, menus, documents, or any text, and get accurate translations in seconds. Google ML Kit recognizes text in camera and selected images on the device. Recognition quality depends on image clarity, script and layout; review the recognized text before requesting translation. The app supports over 100 languages with automatic source language detection, eliminating the need to manually identify unfamiliar scripts. Import images from your gallery to translate previously captured photos, receipts, or screenshots without retaking them. A comprehensive translation history lets you revisit past results anytime, making it a reliable reference tool for travelers and language learners alike. CPT supports both Korean and Japanese interface languages to serve a wide range of users. Whether you are traveling abroad, studying a foreign language, or reading international documents, CPT makes language barriers a thing of the past.
