### 2/5 — It was fun while it lasted

*2026-04-07*

It was good just after barley even using it, it forced me in to buy a subscription so I can use it and mind you I probably have only used it for 2 sentences and said I’ve used it for 25 paragraphs

### 5/5 — Greatest Keyboard Translstor

*2025-06-14*

Finally I made my move and pay the Life time to try this out. It was a bit confuse when I am first time using it. But now I have no regret I purchase this. I was using one that is free but did not update for serval years. This app, I can finish all my typing then click a button to do the translate. I can easily copy and paste it through the keyboard and translate to something I can understand. Now I can even change different translator in the setting. I do not have to switch app to do it all. Fantastic! 😍😍

### 3/5 — Beware

*2025-06-06*

This app advertises seven days, free and charges after that. However. I downloaded the app it automatically and immediately charged me the annual fee even though I hadn’t even used it for a few minutes. Let alone seven days!  For that reason, I cannot recommend it to anyone. There was no chance to try it out before being charged

**Developer response:** Dear user, Thank you for your review, I'm taking notes of all of them.
The app has a 7 days trial and you will not be charged before the trial ends. Are you sure you did not used the app before? Can you give me more details? Please send me an email to hello@alexdenk.eu and provide me more details and for sure we can find a solution.
Regards.

### 3/5 — ITS STILL GOOD THOUGH

*2025-05-19*

**Developer response:** Dear user, Thank you for your review, I'm taking notes of all of them.
But can you give me more details? Please send me an email to hello@alexdenk.eu and provide me more details and for sure we can find a solution.
