I didn't even realize it was there at first. More instructions would be nice. 3) also, a slide bar for playback would be great for us who are trying to learn a language. Native speed is just way too fast. With a slide bar you could alter the speed as needed as you start to catch on to the language. Also, an Erase or Delete text button would be great. 4) otherwise, very handy! Spoken entries are pretty accurate! I like it. ### 4/5 — Good stuff! *2015-04-05, version 1.5* Nice speech recognition and simple to use ### 3/5 — The operation is so simple that it is ackward. *2015-02-21, version 1.5* The operation of the software is not well defined so that the results are some times unexpected. ### 4/5 — Like it *2015-01-10, version 1.5* I like this app because I'm able to send a message in French to my family in France without having to learn the language and yet allow them to understand what I am saying. With an easy copy and paste onto a message on Face Book, this app has opened up a world of possibilities. My only drawback is that it changes the way I write in paragraphs ### 3/5 — Language *2013-11-07, version 1.3* Missing the Hebrew language. ### 4/5 — Good, but not as I expected *2013-05-01, version 1.1* This is a very good app. But the only problem with it is. When a word is translated into a foreign language. It does the job well, but how can one read it without knowing the alphabets. It would be nice if there is transliteration provided in English. Ex. I can translate a word from English to Japanese, but I can not read it. Therefore, in the next update, include transliteration feature, or at least let the app read it for us what us translated. Or do you have already incorporated those features, which I am unaware of it? Help in this regard. ### 4/5 — Альбомная ориентация *2013-04-30, version 1.1* Огромная просьба, сделайте альбомную ориентацию. Иначе очень неудобно переключаться между программой и текстовым редактором. Спасибо ### 5/5 — Translator *2012-10-18, version 1.0* This app is fantastic! ### 4/5 — Funciona bien *2012-10-08, version 1.0* Traducir de español - inglés y viceversa :) ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Work *2022-12-21, version 1.8.4* It doesn’t work for me ### 1/5 — Worthless does not work *2018-10-06, version 1.6.1* Do not download. Does not work. Not worth the space on your iPad. ### 1/5 — Doesn't seem to work on my mini. *2015-03-09, version 1.5* Speech to text ...not able to erase a phrase. I delete the text which is cumbersome (should be a start over button) then speak a new phrase. What comes up on the screen is the deleted txt followed by the new in one long sentence. Pretty lame app! ### 1/5 — Mikeneri *2013-06-26, version 1.2* As of mid-June , this otherwise great app fails to clear the message space after the translation has been emailed. What happened? This needs to be fixed! Back spacing out ones entire message is tedious and ridiculous . So, at this point , I do not recommend anyone buy this app. Do something , Tensift technicians !! 1 week later: Now app no longer translates!!!!! How can I take away the 1 star I gave it last week. A ridiculous waste of 7.99.... ### 1/5 — Useless *2013-05-04, version 1.1* Won't make a simple translation from Latin to English. Can' give it zero stars! ### 1/5 — Livre? *2012-10-06, version 1.0* Tudo é pago. não serve pra nada pois é oferecido Free mas vc não faz nada sem comprar os modulos adicionais. ### 2/5 — Needs to translate from another language to English better! *2015-05-24, version 1.5* Works well from English to other languages, however doesn't understand other languages English. Just started using as we have friends from France here. When they try talk into it, it doesn't seem to work that well. There are a lot of free apps that can accomplish that. ### 2/5 — Crashes *2014-04-16, version 1.4.1* I'm using an iPad 2 with updated iOS. When I click on the microphone to translate the app crashes. However, text to translated text works well for Spanish. I need the microphone component of this app to work! ### 2/5 — And.... *2014-04-16, version 1.4.1* And where is the PERSIAN language? I give 2 stars after u add more language like PERSIAN i give 5 stars ### 3/5 — Needs to work on iPhone *2015-03-22, version 1.5* This app is just ok. Other Apps in its class work also on iPhone. If this did I would give it 4 stars. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Very Helpful *2020-03-16, version 1.7.2* My wife recently immigrated from China and speaks very little English. I’m a typical American with no talent for foreign language. We get by day to day, but when we need to communicate complex things and understand each other clearly, we use this app. It works well. ### 5/5 — Translator HD *2016-01-11, version 1.5* Translator HD is a great app for quick reference to foreign language words. For example to greet someone or wish them a happy holiday in their language. It gives both the written and audio translations. Very entertaining and even educational! Highly recommended and well worth the price. ### 5/5 — Ok *2016-01-10, version 1.5* Good ### 5/5 — Reunited Family *2015-03-09, version 1.5* I love this program. It is allowing me to write to my mother in her native language and to communicate with family like never before! Needs to translate to US English instead of only British English. ### 5/5 — Works very well *2015-03-08, version 1.5* App is very easy and accurate. Only request would be for audio used in the translation be a little slower. Other than that I give it 5 stars! ### 5/5 — So far, I really like this. I use it everyday *2015-02-02, version 1.5* I have relatives in Taiwan and friends all over the world. This translator really works for me. You do have to speak clearly though. If your accent is too much from another country, like redneck country (just kidding), it may have a difficult time. Works great for me and fast. ### 5/5 — Definetly a help!!! *2013-12-25, version 1.4* I like this app, I just purchased it and was able to translate Spanish product information! Will definitely be using in the Dominican Republic!!! Yessssss ### 5/5 — SUPER *2013-11-13, version 1.3* Is the best translator met by me before I recommend to all ! 10 stars from me ! ### 5/5 — Very well. *2013-05-10, version 1.1* So good!!! ### 5/5 — Muy buen traductor... Se Los recomiendo... ;) *2013-04-30, version 1.1* ;) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
