That was all straightforward and easy. However once it was connected to my account it didn’t seem to do anything. I wanted to use it to more easily chat with my Thai friend. However it didn’t actually ever translate anything to Thai; there was no option to enable a translation feature or a “press and hold message to translate to [foreign language]” option. I don’t get it. What’s the point? Scraping my WhatsApp account for data mining? ### 1/5 — It was great until four days ago. *2025-11-25* I loved this app until this latest update. After the latest update. I am no longer able to send messages within the app. The app is no longer usable. Furthermore, I reached out for a customer support and have not received any response. ### 1/5 — App not translating *2025-08-08* After update, the app stopped translating messages **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback, we fixed this issue so if you download it everything should work alright again ### 3/5 — Need option to delete messages *2025-08-12* Almost good! Just need the ability to delete messages since I delete them on WhatsApp but it did not delete on Flipchat (had to reinstall the app to resync chat history) **Developer response:** Thank you very much! I will add it to the road map! ### 3/5 — Wow! Impressive! *2025-04-03* The last bug with person’s names being “Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat…x100” (yes it was THAT long) bas been fixed in v3.1.5. Thank goodness. Now the only thing that is lacking, is maintaining capitalization. If I want to say OH MY GOODNESS. It will change it to standard sentence case on the recipient’s message. I also really want to see Brazilian Portuguese, which is much different than standard European Portuguese. And, per capita, theres hardly anybody who uses standard Portuguese (3%)… the Brazilian version is the most widely-used worldwide (97%). So the App Publisher really needs to add both versions to avoid confusion or just replace it altogether with Brazilian Portuguese. **Developer response:** Hi, Thanks for the feedback. With the new advanced translation models, Portuguese is now Brazilian Portuguese. Best wishes, ### 3/5 — Wow! Impressive! *2025-03-21* Incredibly impressive honestly. However there is a bug when replying to a specific message, the name of the person which is usually referenced in Bold Blue Letters doesn’t work, instead, “-Flipchat” is appended every single time, even in unrelated messages .. so, currently, just after 2 days of using, the person’s name is “-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat-Flipchat” and unfortunately it keeps growing and growing and growing and i don’t know how to fix it. ### 4/5 — Useful app *2025-08-22* After update, they fixed the translation issue. Very useful app, if you can add a way to choose masculine/feminine words that would be helpful. Overall, good app **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback, we fixed this issue so if you download it everything should work alright again ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2025-12-04* It is making my life easier. ### 5/5 — This is groundbreaking *2025-08-31* I have never seen such an app before, so fast, accurate translation and easy to install. Makes life easier for me **Developer response:** Thank you very much!!! ### 5/5 — Very easy to use *2025-08-02* I just installed this app and already love it. I’m a native English speaker and intermediate Spanish speaker. My wife and all my in laws speak Spanish, and everyone uses WhatsApp. This app makes those conversations super easy so I don’t have to switch apps to translate if I need to. It’s also a great app for learning since the translations are so seamless in the Learning Mode. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback! ## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Cool app! *2025-05-20* This is a really cool app! Easy to setup and use, UI is well designed and connection to WhatsApp is seamless. Thank you. **Developer response:** Welcome!!!! ### 5/5 — Please fix *2025-04-21* The app is terrific and a lifesaver when it works, however, a lot of times it’s just stuck trying to load my chat history :( **Developer response:** Hi, Thanks for the feedback. I will add it to the list ### 5/5 — This app is a lifesaver! *2025-04-09* I am so glad I stumbled onto this app — it is so much more usable than any other WhatsApp translation method I have seen. Everything else I could find is a keyboard extension, and you have to copy/paste each incoming message. This is a standalone app that translates the entire conversation. With the latest version the translation quality is much improved. **Developer response:** Thank you for the review and the advice :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
