Yep, but translations are local. Google knows which language models you are downloading but that's it. It doesn't know the contents of the message being translated.
How is that possible? Can we do that too?
Maybe. I just use Google's in-device ML-Kit. It's fairly old at this point (considering the new Gemini tools) but it still works (good enough translations) and it is indeed fully local.
missed the point....again.
i don't want google play service running on my device. period, full stop.
Then use the Fdroid flavor of the release. There is no google play in that one.
i am
and there is no translate option
my god you are dense
Yeah, there are no in-device translation models that are open source and run on Android. We are still waiting for somebody to make one.
