OCTOBER UPDATE: IT’S A BIG ONE! 🍁

The weather is turning grey and cold here in Germany, which is the perfect excuse to brew a cup of tea and ship some of your most requested features. This is a big one!

TLDR:

  • 🤖 Android is LIVE! The official app is now on the Google Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.menu_please.twa for everyone.
  • 🇮🇹🇪🇸🇫🇷🇩🇪 ¡Hola! Bonjour! Hallo!: Translate menus into Spanish, Italian, French, German, Arabic, Vietnamese, and more.
  • Translate in parallel: Scan and translate multiple menu pages at the same time.
  • ⚡️ Faster & Smarter: Enjoy translations that are ~30% faster and more accurate than before.

… and that’s not all!

MENU, PLEASE! IS LIVE ON THE GOOGLE PLAY STORE 🤖

It took a lot longer than expected, but thanks to the incredible feedback from over 50 beta testers, Menu, please! is now officially available for Android.

A huge thank you again to everyone who took the time to test, report bugs, and make the Android version a reality. Now tell your Android buddies! 🙌

FEATURE DROP INCOMING! 📦

You have all been sharing amazing ideas on making Menu, please! better. Since I’m working alone on this project, it can sometimes take a while to bring them to life, but I’ve been busy for the past two weeks making sure the wait was worth it.

🇺🇳 We are now multilingual: You can now translate menus into Spanish, German, French, Arabic, Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. I’m always looking for volunteers to help improve translation quality and add new languages.

⏩ Translate multiple pages/menus at the same time: I know waiting for translations can be annoying, especially with a multi-page menu. The wait is over! You can now add multiple images and translate them all in parallel.

💌 Share menus with everyone: No more passing a phone around the table! You can now share a translated menu with a link. Your friends can see the menu and use all the features, even if they don’t have the app, except for translating new menus.

📱Quality-of-life improvements: I’ve also made a bunch of smaller tweaks that add up to a much better experience. Think of them as quality-of-life upgrades to get you from photo to food faster.

  • Set It & Forget It: Your language preferences are now saved automatically. No more selecting them every single time.
  • No More Guessing: A new loading status in the “All menus” section shows you the exact progress of your translation.
  • Easy Order Overview: When selecting dishes, you can now see the number of dishes you’ve added to the order per category, making it simple to keep track, especially when you’re ordering a feast.
  • Smarter Translations, 30% Faster: We’ve upgraded to Google’s latest Gemini 2.5 Preview model. For you, this means quicker results and more accurate translations, even on tricky menus!
