Not a bad application for basic use. A bit slow in translating, on rare ocassions, and translations not perfect. Due to language, grammar, syntax, etc. it can't be... no program can be. No problems. Only minor issue is conversation mode doesn't always stay active after a verbal translation, so it's difficult to, for example, give directions in a timely manner. Have to keep reactivating it. All-in-all, a good app."

Have been using this app for English<>Spanish for more than a year. Recent changes to the app mean it doesn't show the sentence after I type it in on the keyboard for translation and worse - it doesn't show me the translation in the other language. It is all verbal. If you need to see it as most of us do, there needs to be an option to turn that back on. Thanks! Please escalate. Still not working. Development broke something that was working. Tried reading manual, but that's NOT the problem."

The new interface is trash, which says a lot coming from someone who's used the app for the last 10 yrs. History used to be sth you can access easily. Now you need to press 2 buttons to get to it. I used to press the left arrow and go back from the next word to the previous one. Now I go back to nothingness. I saw some people talking abt the camera being bad. It has been bad for a very long time, which is why I just use the app for single word meaning(s), now my experience with that is worse."
