Project overview
WinLens captures the Windows desktop, recognizes text with OCR, and draws translated lines over the original pixels with matched backgrounds and fonts. A global hotkey works across native apps, games, images, PDFs, chats, and video frames, and users can copy either the source or translation from each block. It is Windows-only, relies on online translation services, and its current builds are not code-signed, so SmartScreen may appear on first launch.
