Product Review of iTranslate Translator

By Matthew Lynch

Spread the love

The leading translation and dictionary app that will help you translate texts and websites or start voice-to-voice communications in more than 100 languages. It also allows you to listen to translations in male or female voices and switch between different dialects. It also comes with dictionaries with synonyms and different meanings.

Website: https://www.itranslate.com/

What Users Love About the App

“I don’t speak Spanish at all but met a Latino guy who needed help taking some classes at the community college I work at. We only used the free part and within two minutes of us opening it we were communicating, not just talking. We were able to ask each other any questions we had and give detailed answers.”

“I love iTranslate and use it frequently! My sister-in-law is Italian and I am American. iTranslate helps me understand Facebook comments about my sister-in-law or niece that I would otherwise be unable to read/translate (my Italian isn’t that advanced). It also allows me to look at foreign websites and translate from the source language into English.”

“I use this app a great deal, at least once a week, most the time way more. This app helps me a lot, without spending so much time trying to learn the languages. This app helps me figure things out quickly, and move on. I’ve actually written long letters in French to some people. They seem to understand what I’m wiring.”

“This app translates every word I want to say, or read. I copy paste away in both directions; depending on whether I want to compose, or read in another language. It takes a little thinking sometimes, this app does most the work. Try this app out to close the communication gap with different languages.”

“I am from the U.S. Living in Quebec Canada and have the need to use this app constantly. I have used it for over a year now and it is by far the best that I have found so far…….and I have tried many. For the most part, I have found it to be fast, efficient, and accurate.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“If you don’t believe me download it, you can’t use anything but the bare minimum of translating by typing it in manually, if you want to use a translator app just use google translate app completely free and has a camera translator function, you have to pay actual money to even use the camera function on this app.”

“The app consistently crashes immediately after is finishes the cycle of translation; and before I have time to even verify it’s accuracy so not sure if it’s still as correct as it used to be I read in some reviews that it isn’t anymore; i.e. Korean for example, but I wouldn’t know since it keeps crashing.”

“Beware that it requires access to any past translations as well & beware that anything you type it paste into it to translate will be accessed by this app; so you might wish to leave out financial or sensitive Information, etc.; like if you’re translating a contract. Also, the premium (paid) version price tag seems rather steep to a lot of the reviewers here as well as to me the way it is organized now.”

“It’s so sad to see how this app has gone downhill when it used to be fantastic. They now charge an exorbitant amount comparatively (4.99 per month), and compared to other services it’s just not worth it. Not only that, but “updates” have misled many subscribers to sign up for a paid account, when it looks like a normal update.”

“I purchased this app because I’m traveling Latin America for the next 6 months and was looking to use this as a tool while I’m learning Spanish. The voice recognition is frustrating, it takes a few tries to recognize the correct thing being said for English and Spanish. It also gives a different translation when spoken vs typed even though the spoken words show up exactly as typed.”

About Us

Since technology is not going anywhere and does more good than harm, adapting is the best course of action. That is where The Tech Edvocate comes in. We plan to cover the PreK-12 and Higher Education EdTech sectors and provide our readers with the latest news and opinion on the subject. From time to time, I will invite other voices to weigh in on important issues in EdTech. We hope to provide a well-rounded, multi-faceted look at the past, present, the future of EdTech in the US and internationally.

We started this journey back in June 2016, and we plan to continue it for many more years to come. I hope that you will join us in this discussion of the past, present and future of EdTech and lend your own insight to the issues that are discussed.
