Paid for this app 7 years ago

I paid for this app and worked fine. Now it asks for money to get the same features I already paid for… SCAM!

Scam

Uelix on

Switzerland

Don't download, this is a joke, unusable... a big scam. I'm very disappointed...

Sehr instabil!

Cataclisma on

Switzerland

An und für sich eine tolle Idee. Übersetzung klappt meistens ganz akzeptabel. Leider stürzt die App pausenlos ab und eine Übersetzung kann dadurch nur sehr schwer ausgeführt werden! Bitte beheben und updaten!

Would rate this a zero if I could!! Such a waste!!

I got this app because my grandmas mom gave her this vase years ago and it has Chinese letters on it and we don’t know what it says. Once I got the app it immediately took me to a button that said free trial. I went along with it and took the picture of the vase and it didn’t translate!! I pressed the button translate and it kicked me out of the entire app!! Don’t get this app!!

lol doesn’t work

robloxprincess417 on

United States

I tried translating japanese characters on a mask that had Kokichi Ouma on it and all it did was translate everything that wasn’t Japanese 😃

Doesn’t even work for one character translation

Lakhena on

United States

I don’t know why it won’t even translate single characters. It keeps telling me there is no text in the box no matter how clear the picture is, or where I space it between the orange brackets. And this is a single typed character on a white piece of paper to test the app. It’s way too finicky for me to bother with.

No good

ebbyhill on

United States

This app is useless and does absolutely nothing.

Free translations excellent; Paid is HORRIBLE

Pinku Bento Box on

United States

Got this app to help with translation of very small Japanese print. Tested multi-line translation with the free app and it worked brilliantly. Bought the paid unlimited translation for Japanese only, and immediately saw a difference. What once translated as (Light Red 50%) now translates as TUNA or Shy, or other ridiculous phrases. Do yourself a favor, don't even bother with the free version, let alone pay for the unlimited version.

It crashes

Please update the app, it crashes when I use it in iphone 11.
