### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-02*

Found this app very useful as I learned to speak Hebrew as a local. And quite fun too, with built in gamification. Heads and tails above the other translation apps.

### 5/5 — Best hebrew app i've used

*2026-08-02*

Most translators give you stiff, formal Hebrew nobody actually speaks. Baba gets slang and everyday phrasing right, and the voice features make it easy to actually learn how things sound. Super clean app too. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to speak like a local.

### 5/5 — Helped me form real connections half a world away

*2026-07-12*

As the mom of a Lone Soldier, Baba has been my lifeline for the last 6 months helping me connect with my son’s mom/parent WhatsApp group from 12,000 km away. Other online translators were unreliable often giving me translations that made no sense (Example: the boys are all dating!) which was incredibly frustrating.  I discovered Baba and found clarity and comprehension. It’s rapid so I could quickly process 50 texts during the Masa Kumpta to locate the parent’s group in a large park and before the event, could CORRECTLY translate the PDF invitation.  I cannot overstate how important this app has been to helping me form new friendships across the world. THANK YOU for creating it.

**Developer response:** We love getting messages like this from you and so many other people! Glad to hear you're enjoying the app and excited to release new features as we grow.

### 2/5 — Once was very Good

*2026-07-07*

I used it for a while and thought it was pretty good. Lately, as of May June 2026, it became unstable and unreliable. I would gladly paint for the service if it were half way relatable.

**Developer response:** Hey, how's it going? I would love to hear more about what the issues are if you can message us at isaac@itsbaba.com and we'll be sure to take care of them. 

We had a large influx of users when we released the new version, which caused some scaling issues, but we're working on them

### 5/5 — Very accurate translations

*2026-04-15*

Honestly so glad I downloaded this app!! It’s super accurate and my Israeli friends keep telling me I’m getting better!!!

**Developer response:** David — there's nothing better than hearing your Israeli friends are noticing the difference. That's the proof we obsess over gender and slang accuracy. Keep going 💪

### 5/5 — Great translation app

*2026-04-13*
