MT Reader

An Android manga translation app with local speech bubble detection and OCR, combined with an OpenAI-compatible API for translation. Translated text is rendered back onto the original image as draggable text bubbles. It also supports screen translation with a floating overlay, so you can recognize and translate manga text directly from any app or from the home screen.

Key Features ✨

- Japanese to Chinese, English to Chinese - Screen translation: supports floating-window translation to recognize and translate manga text from any screen - Manga library management: create folders, import images in batch, import manga folders, and support CBZ, ZIP, and PDF import/export - Translation pipeline: speech bubble detection + OCR + LLM translation, with both standard mode and full-text fast translation - Reading experience: translation overlay, draggable translated bubbles, and automatic reading progress saving - Glossary and cache: maintain glossary.json per folder and automatically accumulate consistent name translations - Updates and logs: check for updates on launch, foreground service during translation, and in-app log viewing - Multi-provider load balancing: configure multiple translation providers and balance requests automatically by weight

Supported Translation Languages 🌐

- Source languages: Japanese, English - Target language: Chinese - Simplified Chinese - Traditional Chinese - The translation language for each folder can also be set independently in the library as: - Japanese → Chinese - English → Chinese - Korean → Chinese - When the app UI is switched to Traditional Chinese, it will prioritize Traditional Chinese prompts and output Traditional Chinese translation results by default

Quick Start 🚀

1. Create a folder in the manga library and import images 2. Make sure image filenames match the reading order (e.g., 1.jpg, 2.jpg) 3. Fill in the API URL, API key, and model name in Settings (OpenAI-compatible) 4. Return to the library, choose a folder, and tap "Translate Folder" 5. After translation finishes, tap "Start Reading" and drag bubble positions on the reader page as needed

For full-text fast translation, it is recommended to upload and translate large folders in batches, or increase the API timeout in Settings.
