iOS browsers could share URLs directly to the Kagi Translate app via the Share Sheet. The app would translate the shared webpage, matching the desktop workflow at translate.kagi.com/{URL}. This would eliminate copy-pasting URLs between the browser and app.
Kagi Translate iOS registers as an iOS Share Sheet extension that accepts URL content types, then processes the URL like translate.kagi.com/{URL}.
The workflow would be: browsers (Safari/ third-party browsers) -> iOS Share Sheet -> Kagi Translate iOS
- The user encounters a non-native article in browser.
- Taps the Share button in the browser's toolbar.
- Selects "Kagi Translate" from the Share Sheet.
- Kagi Translate opens with the URL pre-populated, and translation starts immediately.
- The user reads the translated content in-app.
As a bonus, it could also accept links from any other apps, working in the same way.
This would eliminate the need to manually copy the URL into the Kagi Translate app.
