Korean menu & kiosk translator: what to tap next. No ads, no account, offline
Korea Kiosk Buddy is a Korean menu and kiosk translator for your Korea trip. Snap a Korean kiosk or menu and it shows the one button to tap next, translates every word on the photo and helps you order food in Korea in your own language.
WHY TRAVELLERS SWITCH
• No ads. Not a banner, not a video, not ever
• No account and no sign-in. Open it and use it
• Live translate and Quick read work offline, on your phone, with no daily limit. On Wi-Fi the offline pack downloads by itself
• It explains kiosk words the way the kiosk means them (포장 = Takeout, 단품 = Item only), not word by word
• Your photos and orders stay on your phone
★ TAP THIS NEXT
• Say what you want once: "cheeseburger set for takeout" or "iced Americano"
• Snap the kiosk with the built-in camera: flash for dark corners, 2x zoom for far screens
• A yellow ring marks the next button right on your photo, with the big Korean label to match and where it is
• Snap the next screen and it remembers your order: dine in or takeout, set or single, options, cart, payment
• Blurry photo? It tells you at once and does not use up a guided order
• The full menu translation, with every dish, price and diet flag, is one tap away
★ LIVE TRANSLATE, FREE AND OFFLINE
• Point the camera at any Korean menu, sign or kiosk and read it in your language, live
• Steady labels, Freeze to lower the phone, tap a word to hear it, Copy all to keep the text
• Prices in won and in your home currency
★ PICKUP NUMBER LISTENER
• Ordered? The phone listens for your number being called in Korean ("152번!") and vibrates when it is yours
★ THE TRICKY PARTS, HANDLED
• Points, stamps, membership, phone number and coupon screens: which button skips them
• Foreign card declined? What to try next, and a Korean phrase for the counter
• Pork, beef, seafood, spicy, alcohol and caffeine flags. Items that clash with your diet turn red
• Ask about any screen: "Which one has no meat?", "What comes with the set?"
★ FREE TOOLS FOR THE COUNTER
• Talk with staff: speak or type, show it in big Korean and play it aloud
• My food card: allergies, halal, vegetarian or vegan in polite Korean, written by people
• Phrases to show staff, a Korean kiosk word list and a practice order
• How much is that? Won to your currency in one tap

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
For the AI guide, card and phone numbers are blacked out on your phone first, and our server does not keep the photo. The AI guide needs internet. Live translate, Quick read, words, phrases and the food card work offline once the language pack is on your phone.
Kiosk Buddy explains; you tap. Always check the screen before you pay, and ask staff when unsure. Korean staff are usually happy to help.

Fix: on Android 16, the Back button now returns to the home tab instead of closing the app.
