User reviews

Translations

Excellent translations, unlike the trashy MTL translations that makes it seem like a middle schooler wrote it.

Try it!!

Iโ€™ve been trying to read korean raws and finally this app allowed me to comprehensively translate. Yes, thereโ€™s a couple tweaks here and there but nothing you canโ€™t go in and edit manually. Really do recommend people to try it instead of mtl

Not bad

I tried it itโ€™s functional and I can read it but at first glance my first time trying it there were clear grammatical errors with the pronouns

Response from developer

Thanks for trying it! There's actually a glossary feature where you can set the pronouns of characters, give that a try if the AI gets it wrong the first time.
