On my iPhone I end up using a screenshot to select text via OCR and copy it from there. It’s frustrating when apps like Facebook won’t let you copy and paste stuff into Google Maps from a birthday invite.

I've also found you can just shoot the screenshot into ChatGPT and either ask it to translate or ask questions about it in your native language.

LLMs are arguably better translators since they're kinda built to concern themselves with context, or if it's missing you can just fill it in yourself with the prompt.

(Probably varies per language, I've had good success with going both directions with English and Spanish)
