Google's Now on Tap gets even smarter

Now on Tap was one of the marquee features of Android Marshmallow when Google first announced this update to its mobile operating system last year (which is now already being eclipsed by the next version: Android Nougat). It allows you to quickly find more relevant information and context about what's currently on your phone's or tablet's screen when you press and hold the home button. Today, Google is adding three new features to Now on Tap that should make the service even more useful and smarter. The first of these new features allows you to easily translate text from any application. Chrome has long featured a built-in translation feature, but that's obviously not available in other native apps.
