What it does

Cibo uses AR and realtime text recognition to highlight dishes on the menu. Point your phone at a menu and select the dish you want to see photos of. No more typing into Google Image Search!

Should be marketed as more than just a translator. I will probably never use the translation feature but I love that it picks out keywords and shows me images associated with those words and phrases. That's useful for more than just menus. One feature that would be cool to see (but admittedly hard to create) would be if I could point this app at a menu and it would show photos of each menu item. Not generic photos like it currently does, I mean the actual thing I'd get if I ordered it. It could do this by finding the restaurant on Google Maps and matching their food photos with the item names from the menu. This would be a tricky feature to add but I'm annoyed that food photos aren't…from apps.apple.com
