### 2/5 — Mo Wa

*2023-01-11, version 7.1*

Machine translator has absurdly low limits for what it will process. The site is designed to funnel you to a live translator at extra cost. Support never  responded to my questions.  I’m gone.

### 1/5 — I think the App is?

*2022-08-12, version 7.1*

Well at first it seems normal I was going to translate something I didn’t get any ads yet When I seen The reviews I should read them first The app is useless I’m deleting it because well I don’t really think The app is much useless I just how much you just need to add something

### 1/5 — Didn’t work for me at all

*2021-07-15, version 7.1*

I tried to register for an account. The app would never sent me a text or phone call for the verification code. I uninstalled it.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2021-02-26, version 7.1*

Waste of time.  Glitchy.  Slow.  The only thing that works are the relentless popup ad links.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2021-01-01, version 7.1*

I should have read the reviews first. I have used this on the web and loved the translation so I decided to try their app. This is a bad app. Like many have said, at least half of your screen is ads. First of all who looks at ads anymore these days, let alone clicks in them?!? 
There are too many ads, they take up more than half of the screen; buttons don’t work; navigation is very frustrating.

### 1/5 — So many ads!

*2020-11-23, version 7.1*

Literally so many ads it’s impossible to use. I’d pay 0.99 cents just to get rid of them, but that’s not even an option!

### 1/5 — No

*2020-11-04, version 7.1*

I really hated this app it’s full of ads it’s so complicated to use 😭 like man I just want to understand what the book is saying just translate and go

### 2/5 — Practically unusable now

*2020-09-07, version 7.1*

I detest Google, so this was my preferred application for translating. I just opened the app today, and it was cluttered with ads and things that completely obscured the interface. I get that they need to make money somehow, but the they have made the application impossible to use in the process.

### 1/5 — Please don’t download it’ll save you so much time.

*2020-08-28, version 7.1*

Every single time I tried to translate it from Spanish to English using voice, pop ups would stay at the bottom of the screen taking a good 60% of the screen up and I couldn’t even see my translation. Couldn’t even scroll either.

### 3/5 — It could be okay but I’ll never know

*2020-08-25, version 7.1*

After one translation pop ups appear immediately. Pls stop that.
