Idea : Translation button on messages #256

Description

@neopiccolorat

Hello,

I'm a Meshtastic user slowly moving over to Meshcore, and I just found this opensource meshcore app.

I actually really like the official Meshcore app too it looks nice, I like simple and utilitarian designs.

Just an idea....

A lot of us travel or chat in mixed-language groups and constantly copy-pasting into google translate gets old fast.

Would be awesome to have an optional toggle (off by default so the UI stays clean, so it doesn't bother those who don't nead it) that either:

  • auto-translates incoming messages that aren't the phone's settings language (with a little tag/icon or something indicating the translation) or just
  • a "Translate" option when we long-press a message.

Could use whatever's already on the phone (google Translate API if available, or maybe ML Kit offline stuff).
I don't know how it works, but this would be cool.

Thanks :)
