Learned a New App Feature today - Google Translate Tap to Translate

If you've downloaded the Google Translate App, there is a cool component called "Tap to Translate" which can be used in any app. 

Our Korea tour guide uses Whatsapp to keep in touch with the tour members.  He also uses it to send out important info but it is in Chinese. 

Using the Google translate tap feature, I can simply tap on the chinese language message and copy it to Whatapp clipboard.  Google translate function will appear and you simply tap it to translate the message.

Very cool feature!
