Why poor news? Google bought Quest Visual (the company behind Word Lens) some time ago.

  In fact, the blog post subheading for that section is "Instant translation with Word Lens" I'm curious if that part has improved with integration with Google's Translate. The video-based translated word substitution was amazing, but my understanding was that it was doing a very simple translation in the original app, essentially a word at a time.

    Word-at-a-time use was perfect for me travelling around europe, as basically all I wanted it for was translating signs

      Yeah, it works for most of the cases where you'd want to use something like Word Lens. I was more just wondering how deep the new integration goes.
