### 2/5 — Keine Info zum Inhalt der Speisen

*2023-04-16*

Es ist zwar toll das die App die Speisekarte scannt und in dementsprechenden Fotos die Speisen wiedergibt aber wo bitte ist der übersetzte Text der mir Auskunft gibt was die Speise beinhaltet.

### 5/5 — More than a translator

*2023-01-22*

Should be marketed as more than just a translator. I will probably never use the translation feature but I love that it picks out keywords and shows me images associated with those words and phrases. That's useful for more than just menus. One feature that would be cool to see (but admittedly hard to create) would be if I could point this app at a menu and it would show photos of each menu item. Not generic photos like it currently does, I mean the actual thing I'd get if I ordered it. It could do this by finding the restaurant on Google Maps and matching their food photos with the item names from the menu. This would be a tricky feature to add but I'm annoyed that food photos aren't standard on menus and this app could possibly tackle that problem. Anyway, this app is great as is and more powerful than its name gives it credit for.

### 1/5 — Hat mich nicht überzeugt

*2022-08-16*

Die App hat die Speisekarten nicht übersetzt ich weis nicht wofür diese App überhaupt geeignet ist auf jeden fall  nicht fürs übersetzen

### 1/5 — Does not translate

*2022-07-13*

We are scanning German menus, it just gives the same thing in German as the answer hahahah. Does not work, don’t waste the time

**Developer response:** The app is not meant to translate menu items. It allows you to easily see pictures of it by clicking on the items on the menu. Hope that makes sense 🙂

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-09-09*

Super useful for travailing

### 5/5 — Really Good🤩

*2021-09-07*

**Developer response:** Thanks for the great review! Please let us know if you have more suggestions! Jordi

### 4/5 — Waiting for Japanese

*2021-09-06*

I’ll hold my review until I can use it. I live in japan.

**Developer response:** Hi LasDivine, thanks for your review! Unfortunately Apple's text recognition system does not support Japanese (yet). I requested this feature a few years ago, so I hope they will add it soon!
