用不了

挺好用的翻译也比较准确,但是为什么现在用不了了,明明昨天都还能翻译,但是今天想翻译的时候怎么也翻译不出来重下了好几次网络也检查了没有问题希望尽快改进一下

Slow translation, Often freezes

I’ve used this app for a few years and it’s been my go to when needing to translate Korean. However, after the most recent update the translation is really slow, and freezes when I’m halfway through typing. What used to be a really efficient and reliable app when needing quick translations is now a frustration and a lot less reliable!

Can I use the app normally?

I uninstalled the app because they keep asking me to turn on my Location (which I dont want to???). I can’t even use the app properly without getting they pop up ad/notification asking me to do it because of their new feature (that I don’t care). If someone says no one time, how about leaving them alone…..

Suddenly slow and unusable

The new update seems to have broken the app. It’s so slow even with short text translations. I don’t know what you did but change it back.

Almost there!

It does reasonably well. It thinks too hard with spoken words and wants to use more commonly used words similar to an autocorrect feature. It will start out with what you expect, then change it to a more common similar sounding words. With similar sounds from words like 쭉, 죽 and 죽, Papago wants to change them all to 죽.

It would be nice to turn off the autocorrect feature and have a feature that displays whatever is spoken. Have a pronunciation learning section as well.

Autocorrect is very helpful with complete words. Not always with word parts or word symbols.

Translate from image function no longer works

Just after the recent update, the transation from image function no longer works. A few weeks ago, I was translating passages of the same size and of the same word count in order to help me with my school work. The app cannot even recognise 4 written characters. The issue has been with Chinese(simplified) and I have yet to try it with other languages. Very disappointing since I have been using papago for almost a year. I loved it for its speed and accuracy, the ability to pick up the characters and pinyin from photos of printed and written text. Today, it no longer works.

Helps me

It helps learn languages and practice!

한국어 원어민을 위한 로마자 표기 끄기 옵션이 필요함

저는 한국어 원어민입니다. 파파고를 태국어 또는 영어 인터페이스로 설정해서 사용하고 있는데, 한국어를 입력하면 자동으로 로마자 표기가 함께 표시됩니다.
한국어를 완전히 읽고 쓸 수 있는 사용자에게는 이 기능이 전혀 필요하지 않으며, 오히려 화면이 지저분해 보여서 불편합니다. 앱 언어를 한국어로 설정했을 때는 로마자 표기가 나타나지 않는 걸 보면, 인터페이스 언어에 따라 자동으로 활성화되는 것 같습니다.
한국어를 모르는 사용자에게는 유용한 기능일 수 있지만, 원어민 사용자에게는 선택 사항이 되어야 한다고 생각합니다. 로마자 표기를 켜고 끌 수 있는 설정 옵션을 추가해 주시면 정말 감사하겠습니다

Not as good as the built in translator

As someone who’s been learning Japanese, I’ve come to rely on this app less & less as I’ve noticed that it’s not as good, and occasionally gets things incredibly wrong. I feel like it’s actually gotten worse as times gone on & not as good as previous versions.

最近、翻訳精度がかなり下がった...?(日韓翻訳)

日韓翻訳では間違いなく断トツで精度が高かった安心と信頼のpapago...
日本語で文章をバーッと入力しても、一発で言いたいニュアンス含め翻訳してくれて、逆翻訳をかけても当初の言いたかった内容と概ね一致していて、韓国の友人と連絡を取り合う際に本当に重宝していたんです...。

ところが最近、翻訳の質が明らかに下がったと感じます。何か仕様変更などされたのでしょうか..?
気になった変化は主に2点です。
-------------
①簡単な頻出単語すら出て来なくなった
→使いたい韓国語の単語があったのですがスペルがわからず、まず日本語で意味を入力し、出たハングルをコピーしようとするも該当単語が全く候補にも出ませんでした。(そのうえ、出たハングルを逆翻訳すると当初の単語とは全く違う日本語になりました..)

②勝手な意訳が付け足されるようになった
→ネイティブのメッセージは、いちいち主語〜述語の文体でしっかり書かず、リアルな話し言葉に近い感じで、語尾等が省略される場合も多いと思います。
その文章を翻訳にかけると、書かれていない語尾の部分を勝手に意訳して、全く言っていないことまで付け足されるようになったと感じます。
(自分の場合、少しは韓国語がわかるためそんなこと言ってないなと気づけますが、まるっきりわからない人であればそれをそのまま相手が言った言葉だと認識すると思います。
しかもそれが、おそらく相手が言いたかったであろうニュアンスと異なっていることも多く、かなり厄介です。噛み合わなかったり最悪誤解が生じたりするのではと思います..)
-------------

一度翻訳した言葉をさらに逆翻訳にかけた時に、その翻訳機の精度がよくわかると思います。
元の文章そのまま表示されるのではなく、ちゃんと微妙に語彙に変化があり翻訳されていることがわかりつつ、言いたい内容から大筋が逸れていないこと、伝えたいニュアンスが変わらないことがpapagoの最大の強みだったのに...
今は、齟齬無く適切な翻訳結果を導き出すのに試行錯誤して、かなり時間を要するようになりました。
友人とチャットのような感じで、テンポ良くメッセージをやり取り出来ていたのに、だいぶ使い勝手が悪くなってしまい悲しい...。
ヘビーユーザーだったので、個人的にこの変化は明確で、私の思い込みでは無いのではと感じるのですが...実際どうなのでしょう。
もし翻訳精度に関わる部分に変更が加えられたのであれば、できる限り以前の仕様に戻して欲しいと切実に願います..!

回退功能

更新后,为什么直接从部分翻译扫描图片的话,不会高亮显示文字了?想要看到高亮显示的扫描文字,必须先点全部翻译、再点部分翻译。这很麻烦。以前很好用,请回退这部分的功能

편하 다이얏

재미떠

Camera function

Camera function does not work properly and will by default have korean as the language being translated or translated to

Useful one

It was very convenient tools

とても使いやすい

とても使いやすく愛用しています!翻訳の精度や文字表示の見た目もバッチリです。

少しだけ改善してほしいところを挙げれば、翻訳画面の上(タイトルバー?)を下にスワイプして画面を閉じられるようにしてほしいです。下にスワイプすると少し動くので閉じられるかと思いきや閉じられず、右上の閉じるボタンを押さなければ行けないので、スワイプで閉じられたら片手で操作ができてとても楽だと思います。
もう一つは翻訳した画像のサイズが大きかったりする場合に自動的に少し拡大した状態で表示されてしまいます、また手動で縮小か移動しないといけない場合もあるので勝手に拡大せずに表示されていたままの拡大率で表示してほしいです。

way better than anything apple or google could ever do lol

try harder next time!

Позор

Невпопад поставляет значения слов, нет синхронного перевода.. позорище

셀카모드

번역하려고 사진찍으면 셀카모드 나오는데 어떻게 바꾸는지 설명이 안되어있고 검색해봐도 방법이 안나와있네요

Compare.

I like comparing its translations with other software, and I always come back to it.

Superb.

Apple’s built-in translation tools are pretty great, especially the ability to find and translate text in photos; it’s just too bad that there doesn’t seem to be a way to save a photo with translations in place! Enter Papago. It does this extremely well.
