Primary purpose
Translate a station sign with the camera, then check the platform number and arrow on the original sign.
Editorial strengths
You can check the meaning of a short sign without typing it out.
Limitations
Language and feature coverage differ. Small camera text can be misread. Developer access is through the separate Google Cloud Translation REST service. Camera and text language coverage may differ in the consumer app. The official developer reference records this API scope: “Separate Cloud Translation REST API; no consumer app API claim”.
