도쿄 3년차인데 아직도 신주쿠역에서는 길을 잃는다. 출구가 200개도 넘는다는 게 말이 됨? 🗼

그래도 결론은 하나: 야마노테선만 붙잡으면 어디든 간다. 오늘의 동선 저장.

How do you translate a social media screenshot?

To translate a social media screenshot — a post, comment, thread, or chat — select the area of the image with Sincron Screen Tools and the translation appears over the screenshot in seconds. The Windows app reads text straight from the image, works with any social network or messenger, and keeps track of who said what by preserving the conversation layout.

The problem

Why the browser translator does not fix your feed

The text lives inside the image

Chat screenshots, news cards and memes have no selectable text. The page translator ignores every one of them.

The thread gets lost on the way

Opening each post in another tab to translate it breaks the sequence and you forget where you stopped.

Passing it on is a chore

Explaining the post to your group takes a screenshot, a crop, a translation and a caption — across four different tools.

How it works

From scrolling to a screenshot you can send

01

Select the whole post

Grab the full card: author, text, quoted image. Context helps the translation get the tone right.

02

Read it in your language

The translation appears over the post, keeping track of who said what. Slang and abbreviations are treated as speech, not as a technical manual.

03

Understand what sits behind it

The summary explains the joke, the local reference or the controversy — useful when a literal translation is not enough.

04

Send it already explained

Circle the part that matters, set the background in the Studio and send the PNG with the caption ready.

Features

Details that matter in a feed

Text inside images

Chat screenshots, screen captures inside posts and captions burned into pictures all read the same way.

Conversational tone

The translation respects slang, irony and abbreviations instead of turning everything stiff.

Without leaving the feed

The overlay opens on top of the browser. No window switching, no losing your scroll position.

Ready to repost

A screenshot with margin, rounded corners and the background you chose — the format that already travels well online.

Questions from people who live in the feed

Does it translate text inside the post's image?

Yes — that is exactly the case page translators miss. Reading starts from what is on screen, so screenshots, memes and captures all work.

Does it work in desktop apps as well as the browser?

It works over any Windows window: a social client, WhatsApp Web, Discord, Telegram, or an emulator running the phone app.

Can it translate a video with burned-in subtitles?

It can, frame by frame: pause on the line and select it. Reading comes from the still image, not from audio.

Is the post I selected stored somewhere?

No. The selection goes straight to the AI provider you configured and nothing is stored by us.

Does it work on any social network?

Yes. Because reading happens over the screen image, it does not depend on platform integration: it works with X, Instagram, Reddit, Discord, messengers, and forums.

What if the screenshot mixes several languages?

Each text block is detected separately and translated into your target language, even when the conversation mixes three or four languages.

Is the translation saved?

You can export the screenshot with the overlaid translation as a PNG to archive or share, without exposing the rest of your screen.

Do I need to paste the screenshot into a website?

No. Everything happens on your machine, over the screen you are already looking at — no manual uploads to online translators.
