Very accurate scan & text translator. Transcribes things easily and quite accurately. Has cropping capabilities and the interface is beautiful. A well-designed app and very useful. I use it for translating Japanese text in photobooks to English. If it can be synced to all your devices under your Google login that would make it perfect. Oh, and if there was a buy for a lifetime purchase for using the app. Looking into it. I think they do have that option as well.

I downloaded this app in December and cancelled it well before the free trial was over. I know I did it the right way because I followed the instructions to a tee. I just realized that I have been being charged $5.99 for six months for an app that isn't even installed on my phone and was appropriately cancelled. It's not the end of the world, but be cautious if anyone offers a "free" trial, make sure you check a few times that they are not still charging you.

I paid for the Lifetime premium, I still don't have my account activated, I sent an email to the only email listed in the support menu, but this email is not working. I will appreciate it if someone contacts me to get this problem resolved, it's almost a week with this issue.

Not a free app, requires purchase to translate Spanish to English *edited for the reply. The app, not being user friendly, allowed me to take a pic of the document and translate it to a randomly predetermined language. After figuring out the settings I attempted to redo the translation. At which point it prompted a purchase to be able to continue services of translation. To insult me by stating I "need to turn my internet on," is ridiculous. Your app has been pumped up w fake positive reviews

Anything I tried to take a photo of and translate just gave me an error: "Oops! Something went wrong." The cover of the novel was understandable because the colourful font probably couldn't be read properly, but it was even giving this error on the black and white text inside, despite choosing the languages.

Amazed at how great it is. Am using it to translate a book from Italian to English (no English edition available). And it's doing an amazing job. A few notes that I've learned. If the book pages are not completely flat, ithe OCR occasionally misses the last character (where the page is curving at the spine). Next, it sometimes helps the final English translation if I remove the grad carriage returns (from the book's actual layout), and let normal wrapping happen. Otherwise, amazing!
