AI Photo Translator by WIS User Reviews

Poor

It didn’t even recognize the Japanese menu. Used a different app that does the same functions as this app, and the better app translated the Japanese menu in 15 seconds accurately!

Response from developer

Sorry to hear that you had issues with the app. That shouldn’t happen. If you could email me the image you tried to translate so I can debug the issue, it would be greatly appreciated! You can send it to contact@whatitsay.app. Thanks for giving the app a shot. - Chris

Great app, but sharing could be improved

The translation is working really well! Perhaps printing results (via share) could be improved if texts remain layovers instead of being incorporated into the picture itself, in which case texts could be too small to read, as they have been rasterised.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! That is a really good point about the sharing image. I will add this request to my todo list. If you have some time, could you send me an example of the issue? You can send it to contact@whatitsay.app. Thanks again! -Chris

Surprisingly better than Apple Translate & Google

Apple Translate app doesn’t have Cantonese translation and Google translate has, but only if you use the website version(not the app).

This app has Cantonese translation built in from Apple translate into the app. Translations from DeepL makes more sense as it’s more
conversational like. No more gibberish translations and trying to decipher what is written.

It’s amazing how a dev can simply make someone else’s life much easier.

picture translator is amazing

i use this app whenever i travel and it works flawlessly

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! Much appreciated! -Chris

🫰🏿👍

If tapping the back of the phone for instant translation is supported, that would be perfect! Looking forward to new features!

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! Tapping the back is a good idea, I’ll add it to my backlog. -Chris

Works

It does what it says it will and it does it well.

Snap a photo or access your images and the app will translate all text on top of the original language.

I successfully used it to translate a game that advertised that it was in English and Japanese. It was only Japanese. I was able to play and understand by snapping images and translating them to English.

Not for me

Developer kindly explained how the app is supposed to work. It does not do what I wanted which is to hover-to-translate. Deleting. Some may find it useful.

Response from developer

Hi, thanks for your review. You do need to snap a photo first rather than hovering as I find it hard sometimes to keep my arm still when trying to translate while holding my position while using other apps. I would rather snap a photo first. This is why I built the app. If you would rather translate without taking a photo, then this app is probably not for you. If the app is not translating Spanish into your target language, make sure that the language choice in the top right (your target language) is the language you want to translate into. The app will recognize the source language automatically from the image. I apologize for the jumbled translation. That shouldn’t happen. If you email me at contact@whatitsay.app I can help debug this issue. Thanks again for your feedback. -Chris

Bad

What is this app for? It does NOT translate--Spanish stayed in Spanish. It does the OCR thing (a jumbled mass of words), which Apple iOS does by default. I want an app that actually translates from a foreign language by holding the phone over the text, without having to first take a photo. Hence, one star rating.

Thanks for the review! There are some inaccuracies though, as currently there is no offline support or pronunciation guides, but these are on my roadmap for future releases. -Chris

Terrible

I can read the text more accurately than this app

Response from developer

I apologize for this issue. If you can email me and send some screenshots to contact@whatitsay.app I can troubleshoot and fix this issue. -Chris

Love it

Love the app! So helpful!!

Thanks for the review! -Chris

Fantastic App for Travel

Used abroad to get my bearings. Easy to use and accurate translations!

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! - Chris

Awesome app!

This app has been incredibly helpful for me and my family on our travels. It’s clear and concise with a fast response time. I highly recommend this app.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! - Chris

Great

This is a great app. It works perfectly. Google translate works while hovering and this works after the photo is taken, which is much better and practical. Especially while traveling with friends. I’ve been using this in Mexico and haven’t had any issues with the product. It’s been extremely helpful. Will continue to use this as I travel quite a bit. I’m not sure why other people had an issue with the free trial. It was clearly for the annual subscription and not the lifetime… lifetime doesn’t even make sense as a free trial. Looks like they thought they could scam the developer and then now are blaming him. ANNUAL! Pretty indicative of the freeloaders in today’s society just wanting to take take take, and when they make mistakes it’s everyone else’s fault. Anyway - I’ll keep using this. Love it.

Shady

BE CAREFUL I RECEIVED AN OFFER TO GET THE LIFETIME VERSION FOR FREE, WHICH I ACCEPTED. WHEN I LOOKED AT MY SUBSCRIPTIONS IN APPLE IT SAID IT WAS JUST A FREE TRIAL AND AT SOME POINT I’D START TO GET CHARGED FOR IT. I CANCELLED IT. SHADY SHADY NOT COOL 👎🏻

RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPER: No it openly states Lifetime Subscription. Not all these ppl r making the same mistake c’mon man. no need to work anything out i cancelled my subscription, in time thank goodness

Response from developer

Updated response: All these people are making the same mistake because I designed this part of the app poorly. I didn’t make the free lifetime offer clear enough (it is the green button below the “Continue” button). That is 100% my fault. I am a solo developer and I need good reviews and feedback, why would I purposely do a bait and switch? If you are still interested in the lifetime subscription, you can email me at contact@whatitsay.app - Chris Original response: Hi, thanks for your review. It sounds like you accidentally chose the annual plan, which has a free trial, rather than the Lifetime Access plan (the green button under the annual plan button). If you email me I can help you sort this out contact@whatitsay.app -Chris

Feels like cheated

Download as an offer but no option. Who can do such thing is not trust worthy.

Response from developer

I am sorry for the confusion. Not sure what happened, the offer was live until the end of the day on November 19th. If you email me at contact@whatitsay.app I can help sort it out for you. -Chris

Why isn’t the app subscription showing up as Premium lifetime updated? Is it a catch & switch?

Is today’s lifetime free premium a catch & switch fake promotion?

Just downloaded the app. Followed instructions, onboarding & selected lifetime $0 as advertised & promotion. However nothing in the app confirms it’s now premium.

I deleted & reinstalled the app. Went to app settings. Still no premium update. Tried subscription & restore . Nope 👎 not confirmed or lifetime premium free subscription.

Checked Apple purchase history.

100% NOT LIFETIME $00 PREMIUM Subscription hence either an oversight error by your company or an intentional fault advertising. Disappointed either way.

Liars! They said it was free for a limited time, but it actually isn't.
