The old user interface was much better, and I am used to using it, and access to the features inside it was better. In addition to integrating the translation feature by photographing with Google lens, the application worked well. I think that Google should investigate the issue of the smoothness of the application for its users and not cling to its opinions so that Google Translator does not become

It used to be great. Nothing needed to be changed. But now you've integrated the camera feature into "lens" since you asked for how it is, it sucks. It requires you to install a separate app rather than beeing integrated into this one. As many other people have stated it also reduces the amount of features. Nobody liked this change and nobody cares that you want everything integrated into Google lens. Just let the translate app have a translate feature. No need for separate apps.

Hi there, thank you for sharing your experience. That's correct, the Translate camera is now powered by Google Lens which is part of the Google app. Please try out and let us know what you think!

This app used to be awesome, but ever since they wanted to integrate it with Google lens (for some reason) it has just gotten worse. I used to be able to take a pic, select the parts I would want to translate and it would give me the translation. It was super helpful for studying Chinese, I could see the characters, the pinyin and the translation.

Thanks for reaching out, Sandip. We're bringing the Google Lens visual translation experience to the Translate app, replacing the separate modes - instant, scan and import – with one unified Lens experience. You can also copy the selected text, listen to it, search it and send it to Translate home screen. Learn more here: https://goo.gle/2F6FYz2.
