User Reviews

I heard about this app but didn't have a device that could run the higher os (I can't update my old devices). I actually purchased a brand new device to be able to run this app. It was worth it! This app is amazing for language learning. I am trying to learn French and with this app, I can have open 3 windows - French/French, French/English, English/French and see all the translations together. Plus it works offline so it doesn't feel like spyware. And it is not a subscription (which is a deal breaker for me - I don't buy subscription based apps). I wish the (sorry, but gross) name could be changed, but I put the app in my dock so I don't have to see the app's name. App name aside, it's a great app! I do have a few wish list items. Please consider... * A separate font size setting on a per window basis (ideally with a slider to change on the fly) * Adjusting the margins to better allow for a vertical layout (the text gets cut off when the windows are narrow) * Please add a 'back' button to close the settings screen * It would be nice if there was a way to save the transcripts for each window * It would be helpful if the text didn't go away so quickly by default (maybe it could scooch up a bit instead of disappear?) * It would also be nice if there was a pause button to keep the text frozen on the screen for those times you want to get a good look at the text * Sometimes it's very difficult to select the desired language (it jumps around and is hard to select sometimes) * It would be great if you could set default languages (it's a pain to have to set them manually each time) * It might not be possible, but it would be great if you could automatically open, say, 3 windows with 3 default language pairs, ideally in a horizontal layout * Sometimes it doesn't detect external audio very well, other times it does a GREAT job. I'm going to get an external microphone, so hopefully that will help, but please advise if there are any tips/tweaks to make it more consistent Thank you for this fantastic app!! Wow, just wow.
