Google finally brings to the iOS version of Translate a feature that has been on the Android app for about two years and the web app earlier this year: handwriting recognition. You can now scrawl down kanji or Hangul on your iPhone and obtain some usable results in English. The challenge with this, however, is your input speed. It assumes you write like you know what you’re doing. Handwriting on Google Translate currently supports 49 languages and runs on iOS 5.1 or later.
The user interface and the icon has also been redesigned to look like it fits the iOS 7 look but you could also say it has been updated to catch up with other Google products like Google Maps and Gmail. The app also added support for seven new languages including Bosnian, Cebuano, Hmong, Javanese, Lao, and Marathi.

They give the iPhone 5s a moderate 6 out of 10 in terms of repairability. Looks like the iPhone 5s is pretty on the inside too.
