### 1/5 — Horrible and buggy

*2020-08-29, version 10.0.2*

Randomly deletes previously entered text

### 4/5 — Higly recommended

*2020-08-26, version 10.0.2*

I am happy to use this app which converts Tenglish into Telugu excellently.

My reason for giving a 4-star is the app gets killed suddenly while using, and everything typed till then just gets vanished. You need type everything again.

We will be extremely happy if you fix this and will rate the app 5.

### 3/5 — “Paste” not working

*2020-06-25, version 10.0.2*

I downloaded the latest version, however the “Paste” button is missed. Earlier I used to copy telugu text from other websites/apps and paste it here for modifying the content. It is not working now! Pls fix it.
