Problems with audio. I give this two stars at this point. In the past I loved it, however, had a lot of issues with it closing out on me, and now I only get audio for the English that I put in to translate into my target language. The language I am trying to learn the audio will not play. I even tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it but it didn't fix the issue. App has severely gone downhill.....I will only use the online version going forward.
Reviews for DeepL Translate
The App is good, but there are some things I'd mention for improvement. 1. The American English voice is too fast and too robotic. It doesn't sound natural. 2. The App stops from listening very quickly, when I'm speaking in English. English quick is too accelerated, either for listening of for speaking. 3. Even in my mother language, I have to continue fluidly speaking, because if I do a pause, the App stops from recording. As a consequence, I have split out my recording in several pieces.
I LOVE this app, it's very accurate! however I would like to see a few modes. camera mode - As in being able to use the camera to see languages (a stop sign for example) and have the app translate it. Along with a picture upload mode - As in if we upload a picture that has a different language on it, it'll translate the picture. And maybe even conversation mode - you say the word outloud and the app translates it.
Changing it so that you have to pay a separate fee for Write is lame. I'm not even on the base level plan. It's one of the more expensive ones. It was a useful tool until now. I might just cancel altogether. It's not like the paid version of the translator offers anything special compared to the free one. Write would have been an excuse to keep the plan. Oh well.
lately it hasn't had the best translations from Spanish to English. It seems to be doing a more direct translation in it's first attempt, and doesn'tseem to look at the context of the whole sentence. You can try and use the alternatives but if you are unsure if the language yourself it's hard to determine which alternatives make the most sense.
This is definitely better than any other translator I have tried so far! However, unreliable because too often, it suddenly stops translating unexpectedly and displays a message saying "Access Denied" with explanation that too many requests are being sent to server. Once this happens, it's impossible to use the translator for a while, especially if you open DeepL in incognito browser to try again, then go to try app once 2nd browser messes up, only for all three methods to have same end result.
This app is amazing. When compared to other translation apps, DeepL stands out in a good way. As expected, there are a few hiccups here and there, but I would rather have a wonky translation than a useless one. I accidentally deleted some saved translations, I feel like it might be too easy to do so. Asking for confirmation, or having undo would be nice.
Easily one of the best MTLs out there, most of the time Deepl's translation is better than google. 2 reasons I didn't give 5 stars is because when using the phone app there is no way(that I've found so far) to just draw the characters of let's say, Japanese, Korean or chinese. And better image recognition, when selecting an image from your gallery the image will display, but if there are any foreign characters Deepl will not see them. Having these upgrades would certainly improve my rating.
I love this app. The translations are mostly accurate and very quick, and it's very good for translating slang. There are no ads and you can save as many translations as you want to look through them later. However, one feature I really loved was the ability to tap on a word and look at synonyms, the gender and infinitive of the word, and see how the word is used in example sentences. I'd also like a list of all the conjugations of a word (either for pronouns or for the different tenses.) Thanks
I really like using this app most of the time, its one of the best translation apps out there, and I especially appreciate the feature of word by word alternate translations, which goes a long way to making sentences more comprehensible. however, I got this for reading manga, and when I plug images into the app, it does not translate in the proper right to left reading order, resulting in multi-line sentences being cut up and shuffled into incomprehensible gibberish.
