Language Identification
With ML Kit's on-device language identification API, you can determine the language of a string of text.
Language identification can be useful when working with user-provided text, which often doesn't come with any language information.
Key capabilities
| Broad language support | Identifies over a hundred different languages. See the complete list. |
| Romanized text support | Identifies Arabic, Bulgarian, Greek, Hindi, Japanese, Russian, and Chinese text in both native and romanized script. |
