The new update sucks. Especially for Japanese translation. I used to be able to use it offline, though in very low accuracy, now I can even use it. The Google lens, sends to translate feature become worse. Also the romaji style, I used to be able to read what I typed in the board now I had to come out of typing to be able to read the romanized kanji.

I'm unable to use the app for the past few months. Everytime I try and translate a word (regardless of what language), it states that I need to check my internet connection. I've restarted the app, and even tested the offline function via airplane mode which saw some partial success when downloading the language packs, but this serves as an unfeasible alternative in the long run.

Generally reliable translations between English, French, Italian, and Spanish. I'm disappointed that my translation history was deleted by the web activity setting to delete stuff after 3 months. That setting needs to be more clearly explained, more granular ie by app. Lost many key phrases. Could care less about search history or YouTube history, but I have to turn off web activity deletion to keep my translations! I don't like the recent UI changes in this app.
