Speak & Translate - Translator for Negative User Reviews
✓ Don’t download scamAs scam. Usless.Version: 4.4
✓ Did not work, and speak to translate is only available WITH internetSo I bought this thinking it’d be perfect for my overseas trip. My first issue is that it did not provide accurate translations, often not even close! And many times the words were not even recognized. This was specifically a big issue for german to English translation. I had similar issues with French to English but not quite as much. My second issue is that I assumed you could do speak to translate without internet, but nope, only works with internet or data. Which if you’re traveling in another country and trying to speak to people in the street, it won’t work. Total waste of money, don’t buy! Just use google translate instead, it worked better, and it’s free.Version: 4.11
✓ Might work well but not for my purposeI got the free trial for it to be able to translate a box with Korean writing couldn’t translate. Now I am trying to cancel my subscription before I get charged and when I select manage subscriptions it takes me to broken webpage where I can’t cancel my membership. I can’t do anything on the webpage! EDIT: After going through I decided to add two stars. The way you cancel in going to manage subscriptions inside your Apple account. There is a way to cancel so it is not fraudulent but they should not have a manage account button if it takes you no where. They should also provide a transparent FAQ section that explains clearly how to cancel the subscription rather then having to go through reviews to figure out how to cancel the subscription..Version: 5.0.9
✓ Why would we Subscribe to an app that cost $20?I understand this app is very useful. Our use it almost every day at work. I work in the hospital so he’s going to translate Spanish and Arabic and creel. But for $20 a year it is not worth it. Now if it was 10 yes I would be paying in an instant for the premium. The pop ups are annoying and the worst part is it uses some of your translations and doesn’t let you finish typing them because the commercial/add cut you off and makes you wait 30 seconds. I believe this app could go if our way. But the price range for it’s a little absurd. I would like for y’all to rethink the price range. Maybe offer different packages but 20 bucks to just translate isn’t a good deal..Version: 4.2
✓ Good but missing my language of choiceThe app is simple and easy to use/ navigate. Translation for Croatian seemed reliable for the limited translations I was able to achieve. I’ll be honest the adverts get in the way just a little too much for me to enjoy using the app whilst testing it. The only real reason I won’t be using the app further is the limited languages for offline mode. Other apps are free for what I can achieve with this app in my chosen Language. Other than wanting a larger Language base I would love to see study options added. Mostly because I like what I’ve seen so far. Also I have one gripe: Auto renew subscriptions just looks as though you’re content to get by with customers accidentally missing a cut off point to cancel a trial. I would be more willing to try it out further if a notification for cut off or a manual subscription were in place. I’m pretty sure people don’t love the idea knowing they may get stung accidentally subscribing. This issue is certainly not unique to this developer, but I really hope this method will stop in future..Version: 4.9
✓ Wouldn’t recommendI bought this to use at work. I am a nurse and thought this would come in handy. Every patient I’ve tried to use this with has not been able to under stand what the translation is saying. I reached out to the company after two days and asked how I could cancel my subscription and they never got back to me. I had assumed that meant they deactivated my account for me but that was not the case. Instead they drained my account!!😡 would not recommend use google translate. This app isn’t even easy to use. I took my a lot of clicking to figure out how to switch languages and I considered myself teach savvy. Don’t buy, waste of money. Edit**: the company responds to my post with what is on their website. Like obviously I contacted them because I couldn’t figure it out. Like the company is literally no help even when being reviewed. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY..Version: 4.13.4
✓ The pop-ups HAVE TO GOThis app is very handy and easy to use, but the free version has become a NIGHTMARE due to the pop-up ads. Literally every time you launch the app it will send a delayed pop-up that usually interrupts your typing, automatically sending whatever you have typed in the text field to that point. It is especially annoying because you only get a set amount of translations per day, and half of them get wasted on the half-filled sentences that are sent once the ads pop onto your screen. There are plenty of other free apps out there that may not be as easy to use, but at least they won’t harass you every time you open the program!!.Version: 3.9
✓ Don’t download this.This app is all a trick. I was beginning to like the app, but then I had to PAY TO PREMIUM to translate after around 5 or so translates. It’s one of those apps that says it’s free, but when you open the app, it tells you to pay to actually use it. Sorry, but terrible..Version: 4.10
✓ Over pricedOver priced.Version: 6.0.0
✓ Surprise chargeThe app is very good if you pay and was helpful when traveling. However, i paid by accident. I downloaded the free version (which had really annoying ads and interruptions), and somehow ended up being charged for a month. I wasn’t expecting that. No idea how it happened. I had to cancel the subscription. I think the monthly subscription is expensive for occasional use..Version: 4.7
✓ Terrible and once adds show up the app will dieThe first translation was correct and fast. then I asked the app to translate “that’s right” (in chinese) to vietnamese. Guess what it gives back? “That’s Right” - in English. after this teo pieces of in-app ads showed up and then the only things that can change are the two spots for ads. Nothing else it will do..Version: 4.9.7
✓ Good in a pinch, not the bestI got this to use for a Spanish class so I could listen to sentences I’m stuck on and have it translated. It works for the most part, I think google translate works better, but the biggest problem I have is with the app itself. When I open it and try to use the microphone the app freezes and I can’t do anything, I’ve restarted my phone and updated the app, the only thing that works is letting the app sit open for a few minutes before I use it. In the time I’m waiting I can use another translating service before the app even works. For an app that I’m paying for and with this many users I feel like technological issues should be at a minimum with the app..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Could find betterFar too overpriced for an app that crashes every time you open it… $7 a week and it can’t even function properly.. the app crashes on me several times a days when trying to use it.. the speech to translate is absolutely garbage, doesn’t pickup what you’re saying properly so forget real time translation.. the text to translate is nice and being able to see the conversation is nice too.. but many other apps out there that don’t crash as often and pickup your speech better..Version: 5.0.23
✓ Help please so we can change it to 5?It won’t let us download any languages we wanted to trial it first as we live abroad and do vanlife. So in all countries. We trying to talk to a Moroccan person is French. We had no signal came out found this downloaded it got free trial to try before buying the 1 year and nothings downloading and nothing working on the online mode. Can this please be addressed so we can make sure this works before wasting £60 on yet another App Store purchase 😞.Version: 5.0.26
✓ Hate itCan’t say two words without having to buy premium! Stupid.Version: 5.0.20
✓ Still trying to take my money!It’s been months since I downloaded this app, I must have accidentally bought a month of subscription, I noticed in August that it was still trying to buy sub so I cancelled it. Now I can’t update my apps because it keep trying to charge £5.99 for this garbage! (It’s actually a decent product, but the fact it’s constantly trying to take my money, annoys me to no end).Version: 4.10
✓ Total Scam!I bought and paid for this app years ago before it turned to a subscription model! I now learned the original app I originally bought doesn’t function properly now, It still translates but the app no longer pronounces the translated words so you can hear how it’s pronounced so you’re now forced to download a new updated app which is subscription based 👎👎.Version: 5.0.28
✓ Misleading and lie about trial periodI downloaded and installed this app with the full intention of immediately stopping the subscription. To allow me to look at the app and trial for free as per your advert. However the instructions your app gives to stop the subscription do not work. I have only had the app installed for 2 minutes and the settings part of your app does not contain he command “cancel subscription”. Poor poor bad bad company. Refund my costs immediately..Version: 4.9
✓ UselessAbsolutely useless every time I opened the app an ad would open within 5 secs that I couldn’t close so I would have to force close the entire app tried this about 10 times before I gave up and uninstalled the app.Version: 4.13.2
✓ 👎🏽Really dont like this app, keep taking money out of my card even tho I deleted the app and i signed up for free trials.Version: 5.0.17
✓ Beware. A year up front is taken. Forget the monthly amount shown.This was a reasonable app. It did the job. It wasn’t foolproof but adequate enough to get the gist. My disappointment stems from a) Not receiving any option of buying into the app after the 7 day trial period, it is just straight away deducted in its entirety from your account. And b) not having the option of having a monthly payment. After all how does one know what glitches are going to present in the app so a year up front just isn’t acceptable. And what is wrong that Apple just can’t communicate? I had to go to the trouble of downloading the Apple customer service app just to log my complaint and begin the process. I got a refund as I spotted the withdrawal on the day it came out, but one day into using it would have been a different story. Apple are so bloody devious and underhand now..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Just get google translate.I don't understand why someone would rate this app 5 stars. I have a few problems with this that I saw many other people had as well. 1: Translations I went to Japan (and I speak a little Japanese so I used this app) and I noticed that some translations seemed weird. For example, I asked someone where the bathroom was and the translation to English said; "the bathroom is in the room" so you need to fix the translations. 2: Pop up ads They are everywhere you click. When I try to type something in, it shows a 30 second pop up ad (that is usually grammarly coincidentally) and it messed up my text. Sometimes it even translate what I wrote, with is usually 3-4 words. So, I understand you want to make money, but get rid of the pop up ads. 3: The "Premium scam" A lot of people have been scammed with the premium feature. Sadly, one including me. I bought this feature and when I re-opened the app, it was gone. So, I unsubscribed from the feature and bout it again. This time, it said I already have it. So I can't get it again. I had to end up ending my credit card so the payments would stop. So, in conclusion, just use google translate. It is free, and you don't need to worry about pop up ads or any translation problems. Hope this was helpful for people just getting this app..Version: 4.8
✓ Why a subscription?Your either using google or Microsoft Translation api (which is free) so the excuse that subscription develops translations or the app doesn’t work. What’s worse, they are more free and better alternatives than this. I would rather pay a one time fee upfront rather than join this subscription slavery. You won’t care anyway cuz that’s all you care about- money..Version: 4.13.3
✓ Not intuitive.Too many steps involved when you want to just do a quick translation. You’re buttons to translate are not necessary to be so big. A simple switch button between the flags is enough to switch the direction of the translation. That is what the arrows between the flags is for. Just like any map app, you switch there. You have a redundancy to enter text. One flag or the other. So now let’s say I don’t want to translate from English to Italian. How do you choose another language? A tiny nondescript button lets you do that. You’re only looking at it as if I’m in their country so one language access is fine but I live in NYC. Anyone from any language could be my next need for a translation. You buried the alternate language choices..Version: 4.3
✓ Eh..It was helpful at the start but after translating 5-10 words every time I click on the text thing or try to speak it gives me an ad to buy premium.Version: 4.13.8
✓ NiceMan it,s cool I SCARE my family with it 😂😂.Version: 4.13.15
✓ FrustratedI am getting charged for this, I have deleted app. How do I stop getting charged for this..Version: 4.11
✓ Could be betterOk, so I downloaded this app because I was in the nail salon getting my nails done and the lady messed up my nail twice and I complained. Usually I’m quiet but after waiting an hour and a half I was frustrated this was what I waited so long for. She began speaking Chinese (I’m assuming) so I remembered hearing about this app and downloaded it. WHAT A WASTE OF TIME. If you don’t know the language the person is speaking it’s of no use. Only for texts. I guess most people would like it but it was of no use to me. I already use google translate for translating texts so I was very disappointed. If they added an auto speech detector then that would be great and FIVE STARS. For now I’ll just give two because I’m still in my feelings. Lol..Version: 4.13.9
✓ UnsubscribeHi, I downloaded this by mistake and deleted it within half hour. I still was charged $9.99 I do not require this app anymore how do I unsubscribe as I don’t want to be charged every month thank you.Version: 4.10
✓ Terrible!!!Je l’ai utilisé en voyage au Costa Rica et l’application fonctionnait seulement sur le wifi ou je devais mettre une carte afin d’avoir du LTE, même si j’avais déboursé le forfait avec sans réseau! Je me suis donc demandé si j’étais la seule et j’ai tenté de communiquer avec eux. Puis, aucune réponse, aucune possibilité de remboursement sur l’abonnement ni partielle! Ils n’ont aucun service à la clientèle et c’est pas fiable à l’étranger!.Version: 5.0.35
✓ Constantly needing to restoreEven though I bought the annual subscription 6 months ago the app asks me to restore my purchase & enter my iTunes password every time I want to open it. This is frustrating & often makes the app difficult to use in countries with less developed networks & data connections. Once the app is restored it works great, but restoring it can take quite some time..Version: 4.13
✓ No better than free google translateThis app does translate French/English well but it is not very useful if you intend to spend more than just a holiday somewhere. The interface is not intuitive (you have to remember the steps) and it can sometimes be erratic. Worst of all, if you screen shot and translate anything more than a paragraph of text it will be presented in a font so small you won’t be able to read it. And to make this even more difficult the designer chose to overlay the text in a pale white font over a blurred image of the original text. So, if you try to translate text from a white sheet of paper you will be left struggling to read tiny text, in a white font on a blurry white background. This design foolishness is apparent all over the app. I’ve switched ‘back’ to the free google translate.Version: 5.0.19
✓ Not as advertisedUpdate states that premium service allows snap to translate from photos.... there is no option anywhere within the app that has anything to with snaps/photos only voice and text options. Update. I recently left a review stating that this app is not as advertised, there is simply no feature to snap a picture to be translated, this review was instantly dismissed by the following comment from the app support: "We are sorry you are unhappy but it sounds like you are confusing this with our other application." Now.. if they bothered to check the update notes for the app that I wrote the review for they would see the following: EXCELLENT TRANSLATION OPTIONS: * Brand new Apple Watch App * New Snap Mode: Just snap a picture of any text or object you want translated! This does not state anything about any other app, this is the app that I downloaded and left the review for..Version: 4.13.14
✓ This is a conDon’t buy the app you end up paying when you thought you were getting free trial Worst sort of entrapment out there..Version: 4.11
✓ ShysterIn app purchase that kicks in as soon as you activate the free trial and charges you effing immediately, along with a message that you will be charged again in 3 days. These people can shove it. Apparently they do not understand the effing concept of free trial. I may ave purchased the service. Instead I immediately cancelled the subscription and removed the offending app from my phone. Making a note of the company... Will be discussing this with the State Attorney General’s office as well. Interstate fraud is serious business. Edit: I was charged immediately following signing up for the “free” trial. You can have the $3+. I deleted the app and will never download an app produced by this company again. Dear Bruce, You’ve purchased the following subscription with a 3 days free trial: Subscription Translator: No Ads & Limits App Speak & Translate - Translator Content Provider IAC Search & Media Europe Ltd. Date of Purchase Mar 23, 2018 Trial Duration 3 days Trial Price Free Price $4.99/month Payment Method Visa .... 6687 You won’t be charged for your free trial. Once it ends, your subscription will renew at $4.99 unless you cancel by Mar 25, 2018..Version: 4.3
✓ Impossible to useCould even get this app to accept the required language!.Version: 2.5
✓ Purchase problemsTranslation seems to work ok but the app stopped working after purchase just when I needed it most. This was despite email from Apple confirming purchase. Did a restore and it seems I’ve purchased it again! Not worth the effort..Version: 4.13.13
✓ Total stitch upYou stitched me up bro.Version: 4.2
✓ Overall... Decent.It works pretty well for the most part, but most if the time it freezes and is inoperable for up to 5-7 minutes. The picture translation option is also not very user friendly. Unless I cannot figure out the instructions, I don’t believe this app has the option to translate a picture of text in one language to English after English has been set as the primary language. I don’t think this is something worth paying for at this point. If it doesn’t work every time I need it to, Id rather invest my money somewhere else..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Be upfront pleaseThe ad for this just came up on my feed and this is something I would use a lot: great idea! I was all set to post details to my work community. However, I had downloaded app already when a thank you for payment message came up. At no point was I informed this was a subscription prior to that. Coming up on our feeds is a great way to get exposure but you can equally let us know on that first visual that this is a paid subscription and make the free trial more obvious. After all, we have to trust your brand to tell others....Version: 4.13.8
✓ Just wouldn’t work!I didn’t purchase any subscriptions or upgrades with this app for starters. It worked pretty well too. I was annoyed that I couldn’t translate that much because after a lot of using the app (like translating a bit) it’s say i had to upgrade to use the app more which I understood cause, you know, I didn’t pay for anything. But what really got to me was that there were times where I would open the app and try to click something and NOTHING would work! Legitimately, it wasn’t even the fact that I “ran out of translates” or whatever. The app just wouldn’t work for me and would be stuck on the home page. I tried tapping every button and nothing would budge. I got really angry with that and just deleted the app. I don’t really know it this is a constant struggle for people who use this app but, it was for me. I’m done.Version: 5.0.4
✓ Tricky app to get monthly subscription without permissionDon’t download this app. It’s a tricky app. Downloaded this app to check how translating tech been developed. One day got a bill of this app’s monthly subscription ($6.99/month) from Apple. I’ve never been asked to purchase anything in this app. Once you open it you get ask to enter your password of your Apple ID. There’s no any type of warning of purchase. I’m so disgusted by this behaviour in Apple store. What a shame for this developer. Now really need to be careful in App store, as it’s not a safe place anymore..Version: 4.3
✓ Best notBest not download u will be charged.Version: 4.9.3
✓ Too many ads to translate.I had to close out of 4 ads (2 of which took me out of the app) before I could even select the languages wanted. Then was finally ready to go more ads popped up preventing me from being able to speak a full sentence. Not sure if it works as a translator. Ads seem to be working though..Version: 3.9
✓ Snap option doesn’t workI decided to use a trial of this app to translate some Chinese captions on photos in an old book given to me. The app froze every time I took a snap of the text. Keeps telling me “Error. Invalid capture data.” Tried restarting several times to no avail. Frustrating. I’m cancelling this trial..Version: 5.0.21
✓ Difficult to Use the Free Text VersionI don’t want to pay for the app. I don’t use it enough to warrant payment, so I use the ‘text’ version. It only allows for ten entries per day. However, when I do try, a screen pops up asking me to upgrade to the paid version. It’s so difficult to get out of that screen! There are no obvious ‘Close’ buttons. Just when I think I’ve swiped out of it, it pops right back up. It is seriously annoying. Also, when I have been able to use the app, I don’t think it always has the correct answer. I’ve entered a word in English and the Spanish word it gives me is the English word. This happens no matter which country’s Spanish I try (Spain, Mexico, US)..Version: 5.0.29
✓ WhyI didn’t like how you had to pay for these services at least o would be happy if this had to be downloaded via paying and not through the app so that we don’t need to waste our time downloading it for no reason since some people can’t pay for it..Version: 4.9.5
✓ No Free TrialAs soon as I selected ‘Free Trial’ I was notified by my bank that they had taken out the money. I tried to get the voice mode to translate from English to Japanese and it stopped working. With 11k users, I am surprised at the experience I had, so much so I had to write my first ever review of an iOS app. Poor..Version: 5.0.35
✓ Poor QualityWhile the app translates just fine, most of the time I just can’t get it to work. Every time I open it, it is stuck. Like nothing happening on a frozen screen. Restarting the phone does not help. X-ing out of the app and going back on doesn’t help. Mostly I just have to leave it on and frozen and then maybe, just maybe, it springs to life after a few minutes (not seconds.) this makes the app incredibly unreliable especially if you’re dealing with time sensitive issues. I’ve gone back to the free google translate that can actually translate in real time without freezing. Initially this app was fine but with time it’s gotten slow and sticky and I wish I was on a weekly plan that I could cancel any time than on this $70/year charge that I’m stuck with!.Version: 5.0.29
✓ Rubbish 😡This app has a free subscription and it says you can press x but I did and I only got to type/speak 6 or 4 times all together I’m so annoyed I wish I could give this 0 stars all I wanted was to learn Spanish. I have also been reading some of the other reviews and wow some say it’s good but some say it’s really bad or to not get it. Me and other people to will are now very angry because of this, I didn’t pay for it but other people did and they said that they lost money without them knowing. Please fix this..Version: 5.0.13
✓ Unless you're AmericanTerrible! Does not "hear" accents other than American! Useless to me then..Version: 2.7
✓ Not happyI signed up for free trial forgot about it then it started charging $7.99 a month and I thought I had been hacked so cancelled my credit card. I couldn’t find anywhere that I had purchased this app!! Very annoyed !!! 🤬.Version: 4.9
✓ FreudThis site is not working. When I tried to report problem it claimed I didn’t have a subsription which I do. I received a pop up add from company wanting me to upgrade to more expensive product. I could not remove the add so I am unable to access my paid subsription which is paid until May 2023. I could not access the company’s support site. When I tried to cancel my subsription and get refund I could not complete it because it claimed I didn’t have a subsription. My subsription has renewed for couple of years. What gives? Also, there is another app on Apple with very similar logo and same app. name of Speak and Translate but lists another company. I have complained to Apple about this and have asked them to investigate..Version: 5.0.25
✓ Useless!Cannot use because there is a constant pop up urging me to subscribe to a paid version. Cannot get rid of it!.Version: 5.0.27
✓ Have dropped the ball latelyThe app has a lot of ads now and is very hard to even translate more than a few words before an ad pops up. The full version is around $30 and to high a price for me and now will be getting rid of the free one due to it not being able to be used.Version: 4.3
✓ Not workingNo longer opens after upgrade to newest iOS update thanks for nothing Apple.Version: 5.0.24
✓ FrozenOn my phone it has stopped working for the last three days, seems to have frozen, can you please help, cheers. Haven’t heard back from you about my problems, has just gone dead on me again, every other app is working not yours,slow so slow.Version: 5.0.9
✓ AvoidI have just discovered this App is levying a monthly subscription fee from me. I downloaded it to assess on a trip to Japan, but have never used it. I never permit recurring subscriptions, period. I do not trust this vendor. Can’t comment on functionality because I have never used the App..Version: 4.9.3
✓ Don’t BotherDownloaded this to see if it was any better than the standard Apple / Google options, to be presented with a free trial option that auto renews for £60 if you forget to cancel within the week. Could overlook that, but the app was worse than the standard free options when it comes to text translation from photos. So if you’re in the same boat I was, simply don’t bother..Version: 5.0.35
✓ UselessYou have to pay a subscription right off the bat. There is a screen that doesn’t go away in order to use the app You can to “try” for a week but have to subscribe before you use it. There are others that works much better..Version: 5.0.29
✓ Disappointing update with Price gouging membershipI bought this app a while ago, couple years back paid $39 or something like that. At the time it was ok, I was in Germany and needed speech to speech translator & it came with offline speech to speech translation version with many other feature that was crucial to be able to speak choppy broken German through this app that some give puzzled looks but after quick read most can decipher its meaning, but it does not understand a lot of dialects or any slang. It is a one for one translator. That sometimes does not pick up on certain accents like my thick Texas accent. But it was sub par to begin with and now i am back in Germany and pull out my expensive translator to find out all the feature I once had are now being hustled at $6,99 A month after the high initial cost of buying this app that was sub par to begin with I don’t see any extra add on features, except what I used to already get when I purchased the app. What justifies the price gouging after i already paid a premium price at the initial purchase & now I don’t get what I already paid for. Might as well use google same translation it’s free and works about the same especially if you have to be online now.Version: 4.13.8
✓ Only lets you translate 10 times before...This app lets you use the voice translation exactly 10 times. After that, it tells you you have to pay them $7 a month or $40 a year to use it. If you’re looking for a free or cheap translator to help you study a new language or communicate well, this isn’t your app. It’s decent for a translator. The translations aren’t perfect and you have to speak very well enunciated for it to pick up, but it does give you an understanding of what the other person is saying. You might consider buying it for a one time fee of $5.99 or something like that, but for the price I definitely do not recommend..Version: 4.13.11
✓ TerribleDoesn’t work at all. I speak perfect english (no accent) and it doesn’t pick up basic words never mind sentences. Useless! Used for 5 minutes then deleted it..Version: 5.0.23
✓ CrashCrash all the Time..Version: 5.0.24
✓ I thought this would have been betterI actually thought this app would’ve been good. I was wrong. I really like the idea of speaking and translating but my problem is the app’s listening. Whenever I say something in English, the translator always change some words make my sentence sound weird. I tried using this app to talk to one of my friends who only speaks Vietnamese, but when I spoke English, the app changed the end of my sentence to sound weird. I even tested this out by getting one of my friends to speak Vietnamese into it. He said “hello hello”, but the app thought he said “hello bottles”. Again like I said, this app could’ve been good but the listening skills of the app defiantly needs more work..Version: 4.9.7
✓ I hate thisI put free trial and it’s saying that I paid $99.Version: 5.0.21
✓ This doesn’t work.Don’t get this app. It works the same as google translate, and we all know google translate does not work. The ad is fake. I tried speaking and translating, and when I switched back, it said the same exact thing in the other language. It also didn’t translate correctly. Don’t get this app. It’s the same as google translate. Why do people rate this 5 stars? It’s not worth 5 stars. Also, I hate the pop up ads. When you’re in a conversation, there will be an ad that interrupts translation. I doubt people will understand what I’m saying if I translate through text OR voice. This app is bad, NOT worth 4 stars. I’m pretty convinced that the developer message is just a bot or automatically responding to each and every message. You can’t convince me to reinstall the app. I’m not using it ever again..Version: 4.9.1
✓ Auto renewal big billWhy cant they show it automatically costs money before a download. Save the planet by conserving data!.Version: 5.0.25
✓ Stopped workingThe app stopped working all of a sudden no button is doing anything.Version: 5.0.19
✓ My son installed this appDear Developer My son installed this app the free version was great but he upgraded to premium and paid a subscription for a year without realising it . I cancelled it within the 14 day time limit but I have still been charged . Please give me an e mail address that I can contact you on please to sort this out Thank you.Version: 5.0.1
✓ 差评太烂了，我要退订.Version: 4.13.8
✓ Mischievous!This app was downloaded simply to view and try out compared to my other free apps, somehow it tricks you or slips into a subscription I did not want.. these traps must stop, no I cannot tell you how worth it this app is because it was limited with languages and filled with pop ups and be carful with your fingerprint button popping up, because one mistake touch.. and your lured into a subscription. I did not want a Subscription! Not figuring out apple’s new ios or whatever the reason be, they charge me and did not want to refund me.. bad Buisness ethics, I’m sorry for the negative review, but until I receive a refund, it stays because I did not want a subscription. No matter what the case may be, whether you want to try out the app or test it.. be careful! P.S. Please return my wrongfully taken money!.Version: 4.8
✓ Never meant to purchase monthly subscriptionI may have used this app one time several months ago in europe thinking I had downloaded a free version but I’ve been charged $7 per month for several months. I finally canceled my subscription. I’ve never accidentally ordered an app subscription so I am suspicious that it was without my consent. I’d like to get a full refund. Also, I got an email a couple of months ago that the charge had failed because I had to replace my credit card and so I thought these charges would finally discontinue but you somehow got my new credit card number???? I did Enter my new card to continue my iCloud monthly $0.99 subscription. I did not authorize this app on my new card and I didn’t ever intentionally authorize a monthly recurring charge..Version: 4.9.7
✓ GarbageYou have to pay for everything.Version: 4.4
✓ All about adverts and upgradingTranslations seem quite accurate but it's not particularly user friendly and one can hardly make a move without an advert taking over, or a prompt to purchase the upgrade. Limits per day are annoying especially when the adverts push the translate before your sentence is even finished. Trickery I suspect. I'm cancelling and going back to google translate..Version: 3.9
✓ Do not purchase this BS appI am trying to fix the issue I have with this app with the support team, and I am getting nowhere for a month now. Wen I purchased the app it had an option to speak and translate from Bulgarian to English. I did the huge mistake to subscribe and pay for one year 39$ and this option stopped working. It keeps giving me a message that I am offline and the voice option is not available, just the write. I purchased it so I can use the speak and translate. I contacted the support, they usually reply in a week after your email and they are sending me info to cancel. Even if I do it cancelled after the subscription period of one year. So basically I spent 39$ for something that does not work, no one addressed my question about this offline bs, and it is totally waste of money.Version: 4.13.6
✓ Expensive but you don’t know itNo mention of regular charge or any charge when downloading it and free trail is only for 3 days, the developer says you won’t be charged unless you subscribe to the premium version but the developer also says you automatically get charged after the free trial is over! so you get charged either way, also I have not find it easy to cancel, where is the cancel button? Apple should make it clear this app is not free so also disappointed with AppStore. Why AppStore giving these ppl access to my money??.Version: 4.9.5
✓ Exploiting those who does not understand term and conditionTheir subscription procedure has cause misinterpretation with my parents, as the app did not explicitly warm them of the ending duration of free trial and got their money taken once the trial finish. So I will only recommend this app to those who has general understanding of subscription or term and condition..Version: 4.13.13
✓ FRAUDULENT APP STOLE OVER $100Like many other reviewers here, I just realized that this app has been charging me for over a year for a subscription that I never agreed to. I never even used this stupid app, I deleted it within minutes of installing once I realized it was trying to get me to sign up for an premium subscription. Since then the app has been charging me $5.49 per month, which happens to be the exact same fee as my iTunes subscription so the billing notifications look identical. Apple refuses to refund me, looks like this unethical developer is refusing all the hundreds of other customers who have had the exact same experience as me. I don’t expect I will receive any refund at this point, so I will just say SHAME ON YOU. $100 is a huge amount of money for me, as it is for many people, and you have done nothing short of STEAL IT FROM OUT OF MY POCKET. I am extremely disappointed that Apple seems to be okay with this kind of fraud being perpetrated through their platform..Version: 4.13.10
✓ Good App when you can access all featuresMy hubby bought this app so we could practice Spanish before our holiday. App information says that it supports family sharing but when I try to access the app it says I don’t have a valid subscription. If this app truly supports family sharing then this should not happen..Version: 4.9.5
✓ Spam.The app is free and offers a range of cool things but to use these but there a catch. In-App purchases and you have to subscribe. Waste of a download..Version: 4.10
✓ Too many adds and is embarrassingI was in France for a week and none of my family knew French. So I got this app while in France to help but in the middle of a conversation with someone, adds would pop up and half of my translations were wasted on apologizing to the person for the add. And then I ran out of translations, once more, while in the middle of the conversation. And we couldn't understand each other. This app has embarrassed me so much that I seriously believe that it should either be taken off the App Store or just remove the stupid premium option. No one is going to pay $20 a year for something this small and sometimes even relatively useless. Also their rating reply system is just a bot. They're all the same replays to similar complaints and problems..Version: 4.3
✓ Had trial and bought actual version. Actual version disappeared.I got the trial version of this product and used it. Then I bought the actual version. Until now, the icon for the trial and the icon for the actual version were on my phone. I used the paid for version a lot to talk to non-English people. Today there was only one icon and it wants me to accept a trial again. I tried to find the paid for version I bought without success. I want the paid for non-trial version back. This review rating is not for the product which is okay. It is because I’m being asked to take a trial for something I already paid for..Version: 5.0.8
✓ I want to contact you guysHello, i have got this app for 7 day free trial and wants to cancel the subscription before 79.99$ charge and i am having difficulties, is there anyone I can reach i don’t want to continue with the subscription and pay. It’s today’s date for renewal. HELP!!!.Version: 5.0.20
✓ I deleted as I’m not committing to 80/yr.I realize it’s only 6.49/month but I have too many subscriptions to keep track of and I’m not risking $80 for the year until I’ve had a chance to see if I like the app I would’ve absolutely kept the app if it was just for one month that it was asking me to commit to, but that wasn’t an option … Thanks anyways onto the next one..Version: 5.0.23
✓ Great translations, but...The translator is awesome but I paid for the premium version and it doesn’t show clearly where to finish and stop paying!! Please help as I have paid for months!.Version: 4.10
✓ Pay wallDon’t download this app u can translate a few messages but after that it makes you pay 91 per month.Version: 5.0.25
✓ Japanese translation appGot this app for our holiday in Japan. Both me and my wife bought a month so that we could use it offline. Unfortunately it’s not worth it. You can’t use it without internet access, and even when we had WiFi access, the translations voice and text translations where completely wrong. (Much to the hilarity of the Japanese who we tried to use it) my advice is not bother with this app. Not worth the time and money. Shame as it’s a good idea..Version: 4.9.6
✓ Completely UselessI downloaded this to translate a voicemail I’d received in Chinese Mandarin (The recent scam ones) and repeatedly the app said that it didn’t understand. I tried putting the audio closer and further away, but it still didn’t work..Version: 4.9.1
✓ PricingI get so annoyed when it’s only after you download apps that you find out it’s not free ugh.Version: 4.9.7
✓ Don’t download this app. THEY WILL STEAL YOUR MONEYI downloaded this app once after recommendation from my mother. I didn’t sign up but they clearly take your card details from apple as soon as you open the app because I deleted it almost as soon as I opened it and yet I have been charged every month for this app which I don’t use and DONT EVEN HAVE DOWNLOADED. I tried to unsubscribe but there are no clear instructions on how to do that in the app and they don’t remember your credentials once you re-download it so that you can UNSUBSCRIBE. This is a terrible, terrible app, and a SCAM. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP UNLESS YOU ARE GOING TO USE IT EVERY DAY.Version: 4.13.9
✓ Cancelling subscription needs to be more straightforwardI downloaded this app to trial for translating Cantonese, I was quite impressed that a Cantonese option even existed. After trialling it, the app was ok. but not perfect - though understandably Cantonese is a very hard language to translate, even for local speakers. What I found frustrating was that there was no option to easily manage the subscription within the app and instead I had to click through various menus in iPhone settings. Please add an option to manage the subscription within the app - it could also improve the apps overall ratings. I for one would have given it 4 stars rather than 1..Version: 4.13.3
✓ PaywallLocks other languages you actually want to try it for behind a “pro” feature..Version: 5.0.29
✓ Not worth downloadingYet another app which promises what you need, then waits till you’ve downloaded to reveal it’s a freemium model and you have to pay for anything useful. That combined with the constant pop up adds which take you away from the translation you were doing means it was deleted within 10mins of downloading. Now off to check I’ve not been secretly signed up to a subscription as others seem to have been..Version: 4.13.3
✓ Not free at all!Doesn’t work unless you give them your credit card number..Version: 5.0.13
✓ SCAMAVOID! downloaded this thinking it would be better then google translate app. It wasn’t , wouldn’t pick up the conversation after testing it for 5 mins realised it was a pile of crap and deleted the app. Went into my subscriptions and cancelled the free trial. To then get an email today saying that I’m going to be charged £60 as my trial runs out in 5 days , no where to cancel it , the app isn’t even on my phone anymore! RIP OFF.Version: 5.0.20
✓ Trade offsOk, so in general this app is pretty good. It lets you translate into more languages than Google Translate, and isn’t that inaccurate at translation. The only thing is that would you rather have a daily transation limit, or pay $20 for a few more languages than Google Translate? I get it, you guys are trying to make money, but maybe considering adding more languages and other features to make it worth the price in the full version. To be honest, this isn’t that bad. Oh also one other thing, I feel as if you guys are taking Google Translate and adding some extra languages, because for all of the languages in Google Translate, it says it was translated via Google Translate. No worries, this isn’t that bad and has a wide language variety. Thank you. -Winston H..Version: 4.13.11
✓ More ADs than functionality.This App is just an AD ploughing medium. I tried many times to translate some test phrases and each time the App got it wrong 3/5 times and I would see 1-2 ADs pop up each time. If you can put up with that, you get a very limited number of usages per day, so of the 6 or so test phrases I tried, I was served 10-15 ADs and the App translated it incorrectly. In summary, don't bother with this. It is cripple-ware and it does not give you enough usage to help you decide whether to get the PAID version, and from my brief testing, I can find no reason to compel me to upgrade to the Pro version of this. You'll be better off using the Google Translator..Version: 3.9
✓ Great app but keeps freezing!!This app would be perfect if it just stopped freezing. I keep trying to reset it and get it functioning again but I have to end up deleted and re-downloading. Super annoying for an app that I’m paying for!.Version: 5.0.4
✓ It’s Good But.......I really like this app and how it functions, but I don’t really like how there is a daily limit. I get it you need money so you can stay in business or something like that, but I can’t understand people now that I’m in America. What I mean is, I live in Portugal and I don’t really know English very well so I used the app to help me write this whole thing and boom it tells me the daily limit has been reached so now I can’t really communicate with them. And you may be asking “if it already ran out then why are you still typing this”, and the awnser to that is because this is the exact thing In copied and pasted. I hope you can make the daily limit maybe a little more. Thank you ~Alexis Guardanapo.Version: 4.9
✓ Speach response stops working after a few translationsBoth myself and ny wife downloaded this app and experienced the same issue. We are trialling using the demo version but after a few successful speach to speach translations the speach response stops working. Have tried to email customer service who basically just sent us a link to an instruction manual which has not solved the problem. All the settings are correct. As a result we will not be upgrading to the paid version.Version: 4.9.7
✓ No customers serviceTried to email them because I was charged by mistake but there is no way to contact them. The email on the app is not working.Version: 5.0.20
✓ You have to pay money to translate, nope, don’t downloadI downloaded this app to chat with a relative who was in another country. The first few translates were free. I was pretty happy with the app, until I pressed on one of the flags, and the screen for subscription came up. I was confused and thought I had pressed the wrong button. So I exited out of the subscription screen and pressed the flag again. The screen showed up again. I kept trying the flag and each time same result. Press the flag, subscription screen. I don’t recommend this app. It would have been a 5 stars if you didn’t need to pay $5.99 every month to translate a few simple words. Don’t download, there are better apps out there..Version: 5.0.9
✓ Cancel my subscription!I had this app for ages and never used it. I only opened it by accident as I wanted to delete it, a message appeared straight away which I didn’t even read, the only option was to click OK which led to me being subscribed! It didn’t even ask me to authorise this purchase! I don’t want this app let alone being charged for it so please cancel this immediately and remove my bank details and all my details from you data base!.Version: 4.13.3
✓ BadThey purchased without my permission. scam app..Version: 4.10
✓ They ask you to pay againI have paid and subscribed the years service of this app, my expire date not until 18th April But now February already stop me using the app and ask me to pay for the subscription, is not even expire yet, what going with you speak and translate, and recently this app being going downhill, can’t even function properly, sometimes work sometimes don’t. Please could fix it, and stop trying to charge people for money when there subscription not even expire yet. I reported to ITunes see what they can do about it, got scam for 2 month. 😡.Version: 5.0.24
✓ Downloaded this, then instant deletionDownloaded this thinking that I would get to try it a week then decide whether to subscribe...which is what the wording seemed to imply. Discovered they want card details etc up front, and given what others have said...instant deletion. The bit I did see didn't allow UK English to Swedish translation...only American. Another reason to delete it. The world does not revolve around the US!.Version: 5.0.9
✓ Some BSThe devs of this app are so scummy WHY IS THERE A DAILY LIMIT OF TRANSLATIONS!!!!! You might think oh that's fine but it isn't it might be fine if it was 100 maybe even 50 but no it's 10!!!! That's so greedy don't get this app you'd be better off with google translate AT LEAST THAT DOESN'T HAVE A LIMIT OF 10!!!.Version: 2.7
✓ Cheated and want a refundI’ve been completely gypped!😫 a few months ago I did a free trial without realizing this app costs $40! Never would’ve gone for that since google is free. But during the trial it was useful and worked well so I justified it after I got charged. Then a few weeks later an “updated” version was forced upon me and now it’s the worst app I’ve ever experienced! There’s never a time when I open the app and it’s not frozen. Sometimes is a takes one to two minutes and then it catches up with what I’ve been trying to do. Sometimes it doesn’t work at all! There’s also never a time when I go to paste a sentence to be translated and it doesn’t let me paste until many tries later. To get a simple translation is always at least a two minute ordeal! I am deleting this app because it’s one of the more frustrating parts of my day, and I strongly feel I deserve a refund!.Version: 5.0.4
✓ 😡🤬.Version: 5.0.29
✓ BadddddMade me pay to SPEAK.Version: 5.0.20
✓ RubbishAbsolutely rubbish! Good job I only got the trial.Version: 4.13.11
✓ It’s great, but...Overall, it is a decent app. However, I reckon you should be able to download the different voices for free. Charging people for a simple translator is absolutely stupid. This should be a free feature. Also, offline use would be lovely. So, what I am trying to say, is get rid of Premium and make it a completely free app..Version: 4.9
✓ Stopped working after 5 daysThe app stopped working after 5 days. Only wanted to try it and it charged me straight away. The translation is inaccurate and you have to speak really slow and very simple sentences. Very disappointed and will be seeking the refund.Version: 5.0.18
✓ Cancelled subscription and they continue to charge meNot impressed. Not worth $7.27 a week. I cancelled the subscription yesterday before the date and they just charged my credit card today. There is no way to contact them to advise them of this. App is just so so. The free “Translate” seems to be just as good..Version: 5.0.28
✓ Doesn’t workNot intuitive at all. I’m clicking the flag and trying the microphone and still nothing is translating to Spanish. Just a type box. Make it intuitive. Deleted!.Version: 5.0.35
✓ Cannot be trustedI am in the process of deleting this app as the last update has made the app not workable. That’s right the app doesn’t work at all. My subscription is not supposed to run out till September but we have just made it to July and the app doesn’t work..Version: 5.0.4
✓ I’ve been using this app for months now.....I’m sick of it. I literally use it everyday when there’s something I really need to explain to my girlfriend. The problem is when it goes to translate it hangs up. I can be in the middle of telling her something very important and it just sits there.... hung. The translator “button” you press just spins and it doesn’t return a translation. Why don’t free translators do this? So I have to kill the app and reopen. Sometimes I have to do that a few times before I can get it to cooperate. I have been doing automatic updates, so I know I’m at the latest version. I tricked myself into thinking that a paid app would ENSURE that it would ease and speed up the translation process on a day to day basis. If I keep using this trash, I’ll end up throwing my phone through the wall. I’m done with it. WASTE OF MONEY AND TIME. IT NEVER IMPROVED!!!!!!!.Version: 4.13.3
✓ Be more responsible plzI would advice this app’s developer and management to be more responsible and realistic to their users. Please don’t try to find shortcut to be famous, that won’t last long. Hope you guys hire senior and responsible employees in your business. Plz try to follow Steve job’s foot steps..Version: 5.0.4
✓ HELPThe app completely stopped working for me and I was using it a lot it came in extremely handy. Now I’m stuck and will download something different but I already spent $ on a subscription and I can’t find any type or help customer service to contact!??!!??? -IDK HOW IM SUPPOSE TO CONTACT SOMEONE! I go to the apalon page and there is no where to ask for help. I am getting so frustursted, I paid for a month and can’t use this app for a week now already. I never wanted to uninstall it because I did not want to lose any of the data any of the things I’ve already searched and asked for translation of. If I have to do that and lose everything then I’d like a refund please..Version: 5.0.13
✓ Probably ok without ads etc DELETED!Just downloaded free version and cannot enable Speech-to-speech function as, even though prompted to enable in a pop-up screen-blocking box which directs to Settings, no setting switch exists for this. Also, as I cannot enable Speech-to-Speech, each time I have tried to use the type-to-type function, pop-up screen-blocking ads appear and require dismissing before I can continue... which due to the constant interruption of app blocking ads, I cant do either. I detest being patronised with ads, so until this free version becomes ad free, it won’t be on my iphone. DELETED!.Version: 3.7
✓ DO NOT INSTALL THIS APPMy boyfriend downloaded this app ages ago and he doesn’t even have it installed anymore, and then out of nowhere I discover it’s been charging my card monthly? God knows how long they’ve been taking money out of my pocket without notifying us at all! Apple are only able to refund the last two transactions and I am furious. Don’t install this app unless you want to get scammed. Edit: I’ve been looking at some other review and seeing the responses from the app developers. It’s actually laughable. This app is clearly built to trick people into a monthly subscription. How can you say it’s our responsibility to cancel the subscription when we don’t even know about it! This shouldn't be on the App Store. I don’t know how good the app itself is because because I’m too afraid to try it 😂 but if you want this app to be half decent then stop trying to scam people out of their hard earned money. Have an optional premium option don’t try trick people into it..Version: 4.13.2
✓ Money grabbingI had this app for a long time, as I used it to help with gaming with people from different countries. It helped amazingly as we could communicate easily and for no absurd cost, come to find out one day, they disabled the app to force you to change to download the new version which was a 70$ subscription, so I am appalled at the simple cash-grab mentality this once good app is now stuck with... and when this company gets an honest review from a longtime user, the developer tries to play it off like you, the consumer, is incompetent as evidenced by many of their “responses. Therefore I drop my rating, and I would give it zero if I could. (And noted that whoever is in charge of responses should not be...).Version: 5.0.12
✓ Inconsistent at bestI paid the yearly subscription and have been using this app for about a year. For the last two months, the app freezes when I tap the American flag to speak for Mexican Spanish translation. It was progressive in terms of diminishing return. The first three months were really awesome. I speak it and it translated perfectly. After some time, I noticed when I tap the flag, there was this long “freeze” before allowing me to speak. Now that I’m 10 months in, it doesn’t allow me to speak unless I wait 5 minutes. Who needs it at that point after I google it!? Cancelled and not worth the full cost if you’re a frequent user. Freezes shouldn’t happen..Version: 5.0.20
✓ The apps great but not what I thought it wasI was searching for an app with audio translation. The app description said everything I was looking for but when I signed up for the app, copy and pasted my text, all I got was a written translation when I wanted to hear a verbal translation. If this option is made available then I would definitely buy this app long term..Version: 4.13
✓ Fraud!Fraud!.Version: 5.0.29
✓ GarbleComplete nonsensical translations. If it can't do the job then limit what it can do and don't say it can do more than it can...Version: 2.9
✓ Got charged without a notice!I signed up for a free version and got charged without a notice afterwards! Where did I agree to this payment? And How can I get a refund?.Version: 4.4
✓ Will not workThe app works great when it works. I click on the button on the screen and nothing happens. I have restarted my phone and still nothing. This has happened a few times now but this time it has been a few days. I pay for this app so any help to fix the glitch would be great. Edit: You have reached out and I can not respond to you because the app will not work so I hope this helps. I’m not really sure what started this issue. I go to the app and it opens but I can not click anything on the screen. It would appear that my phone is frozen but I can use any other app and the the touch screen works perfectly but when I go to this app there is nothing. I have restarted my phone multiple times but still I can not click on any button on this app..Version: 5.0.4
✓ Robbed by this app and appleUpdate: Apple is refunding, but it looks like they may be trying to only refund price of app and not tax. I’ll call them again if tax is not also refunded. I was trying to deal with another subscription when this app popped up unsolicited causing me to inadvertently purchase an annual subscription I did not want. I immediately hit the unsubscribe button to no avail. I contacted app developers and was redirected to apple. Apple denied refund . This unintended purchase wiped out balance of my birthday gift card plus charged $20. To my AE. I will dispute the $20. with AE and recover that. I won’t get my birthday gift card money back but that's okay. For my birthday next year I will be asking for the newest Galaxy. I’m done with Apple..Version: 4.13.9
✓ Can't even test itFirst time opening, it forces you to trial or select a subscription. What a terrible model, why would I commit to something I can't even try. I don't like the tactic of hey try us but if we forget to cancel, will get charged. So 1 star for not even letting me try anything..Version: 5.0.35
✓ Should mention subscription requiredIt should have shown that subscription (after 3 days trial) required so people are well aware of this. I downloaded the apps just now. But then, as I would like to try the apps I saw monthly subscription is required after 3 days trial. And the subscription will be automatically executed after 3 days trial. I did not even bother to try the app as I am not willing to subscribe..Version: 4.9.7
✓ Use Google translate insteadI downloaded this app for a couple days of use. I made an account and made sure everything was free! I stopped using the app because it barely works and never listened to what I was trying to understand. That’s not the worst part though, apparently, a couple days ago while I was eating dinner and never used the app during that day or the day before, the app decided to charge me $50 for a yearly subscription. I didn’t realize until just now when looking at my bank statements. Even now, when I’m trying to cancel my subscription... it just sends me to a site with nothing basically. At the end of the day, if I don’t get my money back and some form of apology, this app is done. HIGHLY DON’T RECOMMEND!.Version: 5.0.4
✓ Wasted my moneyFirst of all I want a refund. I downloaded the App and it did not work. I was unable to use it and I didn’t realise the free trial ended after 3 days. It is a very useless App and I wish I had listened to the review I read about not downloading it because it doesn’t work. The country flag won’t change to the country I was in and my account was debited almost immediately with the subscription fee . I ended up using Google translator which was free..Version: 4.13.4
✓ App ruined.The best translate app now wants to rob you with a monthly premium. I’m sad and mad at the same time. This use to be worth every penny now it’s just trying to rob you blind. (Hey developer when all apps on computers and phones start charging months (no one will use them)) greed is going to ruin you. And the best part is the developers tried to respond with monthly fees will help you crap... You only want a monthly fee now years later because you can't sell your app . I'm so disappointed in you. So they changed their response so I’ll add this. Once again the developer tries to lie and say month subscriptions are a way to save money. So let’s do the math.... Pay a one time fee let’s say $10usd v pay $5 per month. Now you keep the app like all other apps on my phone in definitely.... after 2 months I am not saving a dime and the developer is making money off of a program that I already paid for. As I said before, greedy is what you are, you are not evolving you are devolving this product and I’m not going to forgive you. You want to tell me I’m saving money... yes I’ll save money but not wasting it on this good for nothing monthly fee. ( btw there’s a 15$ translator that does more than this app ever will. ).Version: 4.9
✓ Very expensive and it’s completely frozenThe translation itself is ok. Not 100%, but it’s usable. The software however is terrible. It has not worked for over a month. It’s just frozen. I paid almost $100 for this and it doesn’t work..Version: 5.0.29
✓ It’s a scamSigned up for the trial then somehow got charged a while later for the one year premium version.Version: 4.13.12
✓ One time useYou have to pay if you want to translate the talking more than 3 times..Version: 5.0.29
✓ Advertised as free but by default renews as a paid subscription.Got this app as it’s advertised as being free, chose the 3 day trial. Application by default will renew after those 3 days for a $10 per month subscription unless you opt out. To make it worse you have to opt out 24 hours before the trial ends - effectively making a 3 day trial a 2 day trial. Don’t be fooled..Version: 4.9
✓ No goodI deeply regret having bought the yearly subscription. The app is lagging all the time. You need this type of translator asap when faced with language issues. I always have to wait 20 seconds for the app to be functional. The language selection is a mess and the swap between typing and speaking is very tedious. I reverted to google translate which works much better. And made sure to cancel the subscription..Version: 5.0.20
✓ Free trial auto renews to paid subscriptionI signed up for a free trial - however it then automatically renewed and charged me a subscription cost..Version: 4.2
✓ Don’t waste your moneyI needed this app for communicating with a Ukrainian coming to work for me in Canada. The app continually freezes even after deleting and re-downloading. I contacted support and all I received back was “we’ll look into it”. I’d appreciate a refund so I can use an app that actually does what it is supposed. But don’t waste your time or money..Version: 5.0.20
✓ Little Bit DisappointedGood app but I bought it to use offline, however in offline mode it only has about 10 languages you can download, none of which are the language I need. The app didn’t disclose this prior to purchase. So 3 stars for a good app I can use online but you lose 2 stars for being sneaky..Version: 4.13.14
✓ If you like advertising you will love this app.Don’t like it. The ad’s are ridiculous, soo many pop up, and you only get about 6 phrases per day unless you pay $31 😲 Many other apps that work better for cheaper. I’ve gone to google translate. So far so good..Version: 4.2
✓ Needs a fixWorks great for about two days. Then you have to delete it and reinstall it because it lags and takes about five minutes to load up. Slightly annoying when you’re trying to talk to somebody and you have to wait five minutes for it to start working again..Version: 5.0.35
✓ Long story shortThis app got me stuck in Peru Wanna know why? I didn’t buy the full version and quickly downloaded this app so I could communicate when I got off the plane. After driving for a while, car broke down. Asked a civilian for help but due to way they spoke, the answers were ending up strange and not making sense. Unfortunately, after the man repeated his question twice, the app ran out of translations so I could not answer the man. Eventually an English speaking civilian found me by the road side and got me help. Thanks a lot app, you stupid piece of garbage. Deleting it right now because Google translate is better than this trash. Sorry, this review was pretty mean, I was just in a bad mood when I wrote it so I slightly exaggerated, no hard feelings..Version: 4.2
✓ How to remove appI didn’t know it was an app I had to pay for monthly, how do I cancel it?.Version: 4.13.11
✓ GratefulAsk and you shall receive. ! The developer has now resolved my two problems, how to delete items and how to slow down the speech. Much appreciated it's just a pity I was so frustrated by lack of clarity in the first place. But many thanks anyway. With more use I hope to be able to increase my star rating..Version: 3.7
✓ It was working great until.......The app was working great for what I needed it for but after trying to use the app several times across multiple days, the app continues to glitch and mess up the translations. For example it would translate something like normal and all of a sudden after I had said the sentence, it would start adding “debajo” over and over and over again until it began to fill the entire screen, I exited out of the app in time. This app used to work so well but now it’s sort of creeping me out. The screen freezes at random points and five minutes later I hear the beep noise to speak the sentence. I would love to use this app again once these bugs are fixed..Version: 4.13.15
