### 1/5 — What’s happened?

*2021-01-01*

I used to love this app and get so much use out of it. It now closes as soon as I press any button to speak. There are no updates to fix bugs, so the app is now useless. You cannot use any of its features without it closing the app. Pointless.

**Developer response:** Dear TezLasgMaau, thank you so much for the valuable feedback. We are very sorry for the inconvenience caused. We believe to have fix the crashing issue. Please update to v5.8.0 on the App Store. If there are still problems, feel free to drop us an email at karamationapp@gmail.com. We will do our best to resolve it! Thank you.

### 5/5 — Type English, Hear Cantonese translation!

*2020-11-24, version 5.1.0*

I've been looking for something like this for so long! My mom doesn't speak English and my Cantonese is terrible and for the longest time I couldn't express myself. 

How to Use: Go into Settings in the top right and choose Manual Input. Then make sure the left circle is English and right circle is Cantonese. Click the English circle to type your English words, press enter for translation. And click Speaker icon to hear the Cantonese!
