An editorial reading of the saved reviews

Basic translations of simple words get it wrong (piña is rendered as 'Rose' instead of 'pineapple'). Japanese breaks at the sentence level. Language coverage is narrow with no Hungarian, Tamil, or Cantonese. Little practical value for real communication.

What users experience

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

Takes forever to find a translation. Even if I download the languages I need it still tries to find using the internet which can be extremely slow when traveling internationally. Now I have to put my iphone into airplane mode to get an instant offline translation which is annoying.
