Feature Request: Consider Adding Pinyin to Chinese Translation #243

Closed joseio closed 8 months ago

joseio commented 8 months ago

Similar to how Google Translate adds Pinyin to Chinese translation (see below image), perhaps you may consider adding the same functionality to the app as well.

You mean the spelling? We added that in simplytranslate. It won't be hard to add it here too in the mobile app.

Nice!!

One [unrelated] question for you: forgive my ignorance, but what makes this app a privacy-friendly frontend alternative to Google Translate? The rationale wasn't clear to me from the readme.

It's that you don't need a google account nor any device identifier in order to send a request. The only thing that differs you from another mobile phone is your IP. There's no other fingerprint than this.

Thanks for the explanation! Very helpful
