How do you know which language I’m able to translate if I can’t create an account? So disappointed ☹️ ### 1/5 — Don’t download *2022-10-04, version 3.7.2* The app does not work, it won’t even let me sign up ### 1/5 — Can’t even sign up *2022-02-08, version 3.6.4* When I try to sign up and pick my native language, there are no languages shown ### 1/5 — Cannot sign up *2020-06-24, version 2.8* When I'm signing up ... no languages appear ### 1/5 — Help *2020-05-02, version 2.7* I signed up but didn’t see the Spanish option. Help please! ### 1/5 — Fake *2020-02-22, version 2.5* I do what it tells and it didn’t give me anything ### 1/5 — Not kept up-to-date *2019-11-22, version 2.3.2* I should have checked to make sure the app was up-to-date. It doesn’t let me log in though I can login to web version. **Developer response:** Hi! We apologize for your bad experience with our app. We’ve updated it, and the issue you experienced should now be solved. If you face any issues again, please let us know through support@unbabel.com. Thank you for your feedback! ### 1/5 — Lots of bugs and the worst one deleted my account!!! *2018-09-13, version 2.2.4* The app is very nice in a way that you can make money in your free time while transit in the bus or travelling. However, the app has many frustrating bugs, like while writing the translation, the cursor would jump and select random text and you end up deleting what you’ve wrote. But this is nothing in front of the latest bug I got stung by which is when I was unlinking my LinkedIn account. I received an email saying that my request for deleting my account is received and I’m no longer able to access my account or language pair!!! This is the most stupid bug an app could have. All my work history, time spent on the app and balance is lost!!! They don’t even ask whether I want to confirm the unlinking or explain that this will cause deleting the account which I don’t understand why would it do so as there is a separate button for deleting the account. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2018-06-01, version 2.2.2* I can’t do anything through the app, it crashes all the time. Nothing even loads ### 1/5 — Limited languages *2018-01-25, version 2.1.1* Unless you can help translate with Chinese Dutch Finnish Norwegian or danish don’t bother downloading. ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I like it! *2019-07-23, version 2.3.2* I like it so far, I’ll update it when I get my first payout! ### 5/5 — Useless *2017-11-27, version 2.1.1* Don't bother using this on an iPhone. ### 4/5 — Limited Languages *2019-10-11, version 2.3.2* I would give it 5 stars but there is limit languages. You can only translate to 3 foreign languages and two of them are Hindu and Japanese. ### 4/5 — Notifications are not consistent *2018-02-23, version 2.1.2* I have to reload the tasks page manually to get any job ### 4/5 — It’s great, but the algorithm is not good for fast translators *2017-11-21, version 2.1.1* I tend to do my work very fast and I found the algorithm not very fair for fast people. If you are a fast translator, you’ll know what I’m talking about. I sometimes find myself in an awkward situation, I earn only like 3 cents for each sentences that I translated. Instead, if you slow down a bit, you’ll make more money by just staring at the sentence and do nothing. This is not fair for people who really work hard. please fix that. ### 3/5 — Got notification but no job *2018-02-05, version 2.1.1* This used to be a great app but for the past 5 days, I got only 1 task, but I often got notifications from the app that I still have 1-2 minutes to finish a task. It’s like the task is there but doesn’t show up on the app. ### 2/5 — Language *2020-04-28, version 2.7* Can't select the language ### 2/5 — Cannot get any tasks *2018-06-12, version 2.2.2* When i tap on them so they load They just dont An error appears for me to try later and that the task cant be opened ### 2/5 — A lot to improve *2017-01-19, version 1.0* The app has several problems: First of all it randomly crashes,especially when you open it through notifications Then the guidelines aren't shown:how can i know if i have to use an informal or formal style? And finally the text block mode is ridiculous:translate something doesn't mean translating every word in another one Fix the crashes and fix the whole translation process by making it similar to the desktop one **Developer response:** Hello KiD MiO, thanks a million for your feedback - we've released a new version of our app and I believe all the issues you've reported has been fixed. In any case, do you mind to log in and double check? Thanks for your support! :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
