Translate Bubble is an application that facilitates the translation of text on your cell phone. You only has to copy any text to clipboard and immediately you will see a bubble appear on your screen with your translation. You don't even need to to leave your current application.
This application is written entirely in Scala on Android. We are excited to make the application open source and share the code with you. We have used the macroid library extensively in this project. In addition we have contributed our own Macroid extenions to this application, that can be found here: macroid-extras.
You can compile this project and contribute improvements. To compile the project:
