It's the best translation app I've ever used, it can even speed up one's language learning journey, but here is an area where I thought it could be improved, you see when one uses translation app, it don't matter if the fade in transitions and other animations are looking cool or not, I just want to quickly translate. When we use the camera to translate text , it has , by today's standard a very large animation delay/duration. So it's wasting my time when I want to move onto translate next.

It's alright. Nothing new to say other than what most people are bound to say about this app: it is the best out there as of now. However I do think it'll be much better and easier to use of you added a toggle in the quick settings menu in the notifications drop-down shade, like in Shazam. That would enable us to translate audio playing from other apps on the phone such as Instagram, for example, and/or allow us to get translations in real time when we are conversing with other people without having to open the app.

Google Translate is an incredible tool for breaking language barriers. It’s fast, accurate, and supports a wide range of languages. The instant camera translation and offline mode are especially useful for travel or quick translations. However, some translations can feel awkward in context, and improving grammar accuracy would make it even better. Overall, Google Translate is an essential app for communication and understanding across languages. Highly recommended
