Ratings and reviews

Really inconvenient after the last update.. Like i can't even translate on-screen directly like i could before? I only highlighted it and chose the option to translate it.. Not anymore. Now I have to copy and paste it and it's really slowing the process down. And it only pisses me off because when i forget to click out off it now, that it's build into the keyboard, i just keep typing into the translator instead of the app.. The old one showed convenient window that translated it on the screen.

I preferred it before the recent changes. In the past, you saw the translation on the fly as you inputted, but now you have to complete the input and press return before seeing the result. Worse still, if you make a typo (or predictive text changes your word) you have to erase up to the mistake and begin again. This is NOT an improvement. Also, the camera option only seems to work with certain classic fonts. I have tried it on comic dialogue balloon text and it doesn't work.

I had been using this translator for 2 years without an issue. Today, they updated the UI, and I absolutely can't stand it. Now, it feels like I have to jump through hoops to copy a message to share through what's app. (eg: type what i want translate. press enter. click share. click copy 2 clipboard. choose where i want to send the message. click send. verify in other app that the message sent) before: type, copy, switch app, paste. May not seem like a lot,but it was actually way easier before
