The new Google Pixel 6 has on-board Tensor cores that allow it to run a live version of google translate (and i think basic google assistant functions) WITHOUT the need for an internet connection. This could prove to be a much more efficient way to communicate in a survival situation, when compared to a manual dictionary, or even a dictionary app for that matter. Currently, the Google Pixel 6 series phones (6, 6 Pro, 6a) are the only mobile devices with this capability, however I suspect not for long. It may be beneficial to mention this in the Dictionary section of the Apps page.
