Translate without the copy-paste loop
Usually, translating text on iPhone means copying it, opening another app, pasting it, choosing languages, then returning to what you were reading. HoverLingo shortens that workflow: copied text becomes the input and the translation appears in a floating window.
Set up copied-text translation
- Choose the language you want HoverLingo to translate into.
- Start the floating window from HoverLingo.
- Open any app and copy the text you want to understand.
- Read the translation in Picture in Picture, without closing the original app.
Which languages can I translate?
HoverLingo can translate between the 60+ languages it supports. The app automatically detects the source language of copied text, then translates it into your chosen target language. This works whether you copy a short message, a paragraph from a webpage, or text from a document.
Use it where you already read
Because the input is copied text, HoverLingo fits naturally with browsers, messaging apps, reading apps, note-taking tools, and documents. You remain in context while the translation stays accessible above the current screen.
