Customer Reviews
Add the sync translations feature.
Great update! These improvements of offline translation, bigger text and English-Chinese instant camera translations are big!
Now I can learn new English vocabulary without the internet since cellular data is blocked in my school to improve my English by translating English from or to Chinese.
But one disadvantage: Can't sync your starred translations to your Google account. If I accidentally deleted the app, hundreds of my starred translations would be gone! PC version already had this, so please add this feature to the mobile version too. This means translations that are synced should be accessible to both PC and mobile on one Google account.
Thanks Google.
Good but missing some important languages
Cantonese is pretty important, although it is similar to Mandarin, the characters are read differently, with differences increasing as you get into higher level vocabulary (like the difference between Spanish and Portuguese). Cantonese may not be as popular as Mandarin, but it is the official language of Hong Kong, Macau, Guangdong, and eastern Guangxi. It is also the most popular language among overseas Chinese speakers, with about 80 million speakers in total. While the number of languages on the Google Translate app is impressive, Cantonese has been overlooked for some time. On a side note, the Spanish is lacking some commonly used slang words.
Just needs to have sideways txt feature for Apple. ;)
This app has really worked for me so far. My only problem and may also be a problem for people who txt sideways (maybe Apple users)...is just for it to adjust that way so it provides an easier way of typing the messages you want to translate (Esp for keyboard-oriented types). This would make finding your answer maybe not just easier, but faster as well in conversing with someone of another language. Overall so far, I personally find this a great use. It has been helpful! cx
