Translation of Geocaching Hint and Listing text

uawg shared this idea 9 years ago
Gathering feedback

The Log Tab of Geocaches knows the "translate" feature. What about to add this also to the Hint popup and the Listing text?

Good day Venereo,

this is currently not possible. I've changed your question to "idea" so other may vote if there will be interesting in such (similar) functionality.

Can I ask why?

Why it isn't possible? Because since now, no one wanted such feature, because I also didn't had this needs and so because no one implemented it yet.

I won't need but it really could be easy to realize.


There already exists a share button in locus. If it would be possible to share the listing too, then you could share it with any (translation) app.


Just my 2 cents....

"I won't need it" is the key! I also don't and probably most of users. Because of this, not one yet asked for this and because of this is not in Locus such rarely used button.

I'm not saying that it's complicated to do it, maybe isn't, but question is if such feature is needed and useful or not. To decide this, number of votes (number of interested users), may helps me to decide.

This is easily done on my Note 3... I've used this method on several trips.

Not sure it works on every model/brand. When I'm in foreign countries, I long-press the text...hit mark all button in top right corner...share to google translate. In google translate you can download languages for offline use.

That's how I work it around, but there a text length limitation if you do that way
