I USED TO like it- now? Not so much at ALL!!
I have used this app since 2009 WHEN I DOWNLOADED IT AS "FREE"! Now it won't allow me access UNLESS I SIGN A "SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT"!
SURPRISE!! NOT AS DESCRIBED WHEN I DOWNLOADED!!! So- They scam.

Should be Free
Not going to pay $10 per WEEK for an app that others like Google translator is free.
It’s ok
So when it was $6 I would of given it a 5 starts but now that I’m paying good chunk more for this I don’t think it’s worth it .
I have been using this for a long time and it works pretty good but I do have some problems with it
1. It doesn’t translate properly a lot and messes up conversation
2. The app integration with the keyboard is so annoying half the time it just doesn’t load the words or it completely disappears from my keyboard (note this is with my iPhone 13 & 14 so it’s not my phone)
3. The voice translation doesn’t work that well sometimes it will just totally not work and stop recording half way in a conversation but when it is working I will admit it’s very smooth and not very often it messes up just not easy to get it to do that.
It’s extremely annoying to constantly be closing the app and starting it again. And trying to fix it when I’m paying that much for this. If it remains at it low price sure it’s worth it not now. I have other translating applications I can use that are same question for far cheaper .
So I give it 3 stars it’s not horrible but also not amazing .

Very good app
I recently used your app in Japan and South Korea and it was very good particularly using the voice recordings to ask questions etc. however I am now back home and don’t require the app and cancelled it however you are still charging me for your weekly fee. I no longer have your app on my phone so Please advise how to stop these payments. Thanks

Rip off! Do not trust this app or the free trial!
This app charged me even though I cancelled well before the 10 day free trial period expired! It’s a Scam!
automatically charges card
doesn’t accurately translate, tried it on Vietnamese and thai and it’s gibberish.
charged my card 1 year after purchasing without my knowledge. Never bought the insanely expensive year subscription, only wanted it for a month and it automatically changed my card. just get google translate this is a scam.
i could really use my 97 dollars back :(

Would not recommend.
I trialled this app for a trip I took and after the free trial ended I was charged 86.99 for a year of iTranslate pro which I did not want. I did not receive a warning that my free subscription was ending nor a notification/bill or the charge. The only reason I found this out was a charge on my credit card. I would not recommend iTranslate nor any other apps made by this slimy company unless you want to receive random charges.

Relatively good translations, very annoying popups
I have paid for a pro version ($70/yr), and have used it to translate single words and short sentences between Spanish and English and vice versa. It is very easy to reverse the source and target, and the material to be translated can be entered either via a keyboard, or via the phone’s microphone. Most of the translations were good, but a nontrivial number of words were useless repetitions of the source words (requiring a Google search).
I also had a need to reach their tech support. My email was sent over a weekend, to which their Bot responded with useless information, but a live person responded the first thing of a first working day, and followed up.
My biggest displeasure with the program is that, since I cancelled automatic renewal of the yearly subscription through the Apple iCloud service, the app keeps popping up with a question why I cancelled (mind you, I have almost the full year remaining for the service), very often when I need a quick translation. I find it so frustrating, that I would cancel the service if I still could, and might explore that option with Apple. It’s a pity, as otherwise it could be a useful aid.

Not worth $87 yearly
The app works well but many online translations for free…
