Essential for International Travel

Microsoft Translator is a fantastic app and very easy to use. It made communicating in another language simple and stress-free. During my recent business trip to Spain, I used it to translate English to Spanish, and it was incredibly helpful. The translations were quick, accurate, and made everyday conversations much easier. I highly recommend this app to anyone traveling internationally or communicating in different languages.

有意识形态的误导翻译

App does not work well anymore

Microsoft removed the ability to download languages for offline use.

Microsoft did not adapt the app to be visually accessible, especially with an interface that does not allow resizing of fonts in the device’s Zoomed View.

And it misses some gendered nuances, especially in Russian and Middle East languages.

Won’t play through headphones anymore?

The audio only wants to play through my phone speaker which is really annoying for studying, wonder if anyone else is having this issue

Conversation feature

Ok, with the update that has taken out the multiple device conversation, where has the single device conversation gone to? For deaf or hard of hearing, this is a necessary app as unfortunately the teams or browser, unlike that of the non iOS op system

No

Yesterday’s

Not so good anymore

It doesn’t realize when translating a convo between two people the mic and speaker for the other person needs to stay on the phone not the headphones. So worthless
No pinyin so worthless for phonetic pronunciation
Most times it just spins because of the mic and speaker oversite.

Chinese character translation

If you are in China this is not the translation app. If the characters go down the page, the app will translate the words, with the printing space being as wide as the characters. The translation is printed from left to right and not top down. This leads to the app trying to print a potentially long translation in one really small space (the whole phrase in one horizontal line) shrinking the words to try and fit it, making it unreadable or blurry.

Recent update broke translator

All my devices are unable to translate live messages. Keeps stating unable to detect audio but when using other options it works sentence by sentence. Please restore translator using your previous build. Unable to use app.

Voice translator doesn’t work

It is not picking up on my voice at all. Useless

UI not even functional

Can’t change source language back to auto detect

Worse app ever used

Unable to use it at all. Keep telling me to check my network connection while I was on WiFi. Turn off the WiFi and try to use my phone cellular and still have same error. Unable to use but this is recommended app to use in China. Prepare for my trip but disappointed and frustrated that I can’t use this app

:(

On the iPhone 15 Pro Max it doesn't support it at all, but on Android it read every sneeze and it was amazing.
What need to do?

Issue detecting Spanish in Conversation Mode

Having issues since the last update of not working as it used to the spanish detection for different language and keep the conversation going.

Terrible la actualízacion

Antes funcionaba bien , ahora no lee nada y no sirve , usen mejor el Google translate ! Tiene las mismas funciones

No speech feature

Today it can’t hear me. It says it’s listening for English or Spanish. It translates when I speak Spanish, but it just won’t hear me if I speak English. This is a new problem. It used to work.

Why

Since the update it has many error just translates from one language no 2 like it used to be before

Won’t auto play the translated text

When translating a big sentence I have to click the play button every time and if I begin to speak again or if there is any other sound in the room it will overwrite it if I don’t hit the play button fast enough, have the auto play setting on too it’s just unusable until that’s working. Google translate has the same problem.

bug

The translation between Chinese and British English is not working properly. It only works correctly when selecting American English; it fails to translate English from other languages.
