Some updates I'm happy to see: Google Translate now works in offline mode (no network needed) on both iOS and Android; its Word Lens feature (take a picture and translate whatever you see) now works in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese (as well as the 27 other languages it already supported); and for Android users only, we have "Tap to Translate," where you can now translate text in any app, without having to copy and paste into Translate. (Very useful for chats, social media, news, and the like)

Details beyond the ones in the article at the Google Blog: https://googleblog.blogspot.com/2016/05/translate-where-you-need-it-in-any-app.html
