title: iOS translation apps url schemes
body: <p>I'm trying to enable translating some text in my app. I want user to be able to launch whichever translation tool they use on their device (Google Translate or iTranslate) and see the translation without having to type it. For this, I'm using the url schemes:</p>
  
  <pre><code>googletranslate://
  itranslate://
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now, I need to pass the query to those apps. I know how to do this for iTranslate:</p>
  
  <pre><code>itranslate://translate?from=auto&amp;to=en&amp;text=&lt;encoded_string&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This is cool, now I would like to know how to do the same for Google Translate. It needs to automatically detect the language and translate it to english.</p>
