2023-06-15	anisa nasuha	I like it because it is so easy to use, the word also easily translated, eventho there is still mistranslation, but i get the main point of the sentence. I think need to include more language for example arabic. Keep up the good work.
2020-08-04	SkyWolf Hero	THE WORST APP IN THE WORLD I SWEAR! I just wanted to translate one thing, that's all I needed, just Thai to English, one singular sentence, everytime I clicked any button on the screen I get a 30 second ad I can't skip, and then I take a minute to scroll down to find Thai, and find out I have to BUY THIS LANGUAGE? horrible app, deserves 0 stars and I'm NEVER changing my mind or downloading again.
2020-05-02	Ozokami Hellkite	Please, stop with the ads. I paid to stop them yet already within a day, a random ad decided to appear and interrupt a game I was trying to understand from translation. Past that the app is good for general translation or basic understandings of another language. I'm surprised by the multitude of languages that it covers. It seems decently accurate and tends to grab onto what your translating well. Wish that the reticle used to translate would stop floating off to the side causing me to mistap.
2019-12-04	A Google user	This app worked beautifully for a year. I AM A PAYING CUSTOMER. I bought the translate per word package. Suddenly, a month ago, the thing just stopped translating. I still have 1309 texts left as part of my plan ... sent two emails. No response. I need a refund
2019-11-02	A Google user	Way too much ads. Even received a text that said 'If you block our ads in an unusual way, it'll slow down our performance' like the ads are literally the ones glitching back and forth while I had to repeatedly open your app and restart the process just so I can translate something on the screen. So annoying.
2019-11-01	A Google user	Worked great for one day, I even bought a few 'ad free translations', but now all I get is an error saying: "Detector dependencies are not yet available." I googled the error; tried updating Play Service, clearing Play Services cache, and restarting the device; nothing worked, same error.
2019-10-28	A Google user	The way this selects text to translate is almost unusable, it's not cheap so the most basic behavior should work properly but if cannot even select what you want without wasting chances (because yes, you buy a number of chances to select and translate, even if it's an empty spot of your screen and you will fail a lot of times because this apps text selector simply sucks)
2019-10-15	A Google user	It's nice when it does work, but most of the time you're waiting for a translation that will just show you the original text. Sometimes if I reversed the language translation (say I want fr -> eng but changed it to eng -> fr) it will show me the translation to English, which makes no sense.
2019-10-07	A Google user	This is the only app that could read the japanese text on an emulator I was running. While not truly real time, it's about as close as you can get. However, the monetization completely ruins the experience. I just want to pay for the full app, or even just a language. But paying for individual translations is just awful.
2019-08-02	A Google user	Solid app bur every selection is a use whether that be one line or 10. It says it uses Google translate but I found the translation was slightly better. 3 stars because of the pricing structure. I've no problem paying to unlock the language but not being able to one time unlock a language is a deal breaker for me. The best you can do is a 6 month sub.
