I think that this is connected with Google translate on Android.

I usually go through Google translate and the camera symbol therein.

You can also continue to open a picture file.

I often take the effort to take a picture, crop to the desired text and then feed to Google translate. It also offers to copy the recognized Thai text.

 

There is an app called "SayHi" which often gives better results in translation.

Have not used it with OCR so far (seems not provided).

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and Translators are two different things, though they can be combined.

 

Google shows a lot of Thai OCR hits, but I haven't had much luck with any of them yet. Recommendations appreciated.

 

What I do now is view the image and manually type the text in my computer (I have Thai language pack installed on my Windows computer, and I learned where the Thai keys are on my English keyboard).

 

After I have the Thai characters entered as text, I can copy that to Google Translate, which is not optimal, as Thai is a difficult language to translate to English correctly.

I don't know if that exists on any other OS. 

Looks straight forward enough.
