Hi! I'm Gleb, an independent developer from Austria and the creator of GlossPage. I've been developing it for the past year, and now it's on the App Store.

After moving to a new country with my family, I wanted a less boring way to learn languages. Since I love reading, I wanted to keep the original text and its translation together. Later, that turned into bilingual comics and books, too.

Here's what you can use it for:

- Screens: use the Action Button or Back Tap to capture a screen and open its translation in GlossPage. Finally a good reason to use the Action Button :0)

- PDFs and comics: translate books, papers, manga and webtoons with the page around the text. ZIP/CBZ imports work, too.

- BILINGUAL MODE: compare the original and translation right next to each other. That's how I learn German, by the way.

What's free: unlimited local image translations in the app, 10 local PDF pages/day and 15 shortcut runs/day. Bilingual mode is included in paid Local/Pro. Local has a lifetime purchase option; Pro adds online translation with a weekly allowance.

Eligible new installs get a free 7-day Welcome Pass, including bilingual mode and limited online credit. No need to subscribe / register / anything.

Local translation works offline after downloading the languages. Online mode sends recognized text blocks; source images and PDFs stay on the device.

I'd love to hear what you'd read with it, and what breaks. Especially if you read Japanese, Chinese, Korean or Arabic and can help me improve bilingual reading.
