After the most recent update, the app has become almost unusable. Every time I try to use Google Translate, it works for about a minute or two, and then the app suddenly crashes and completely closes out. This is happening consistently, not just a one-time issue. It makes the app unreliable, especially when I actually need it for real-time communication. For reference, I’m using a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra, so this shouldn’t be a device performance issue. Please fix this ASAP!

Used to be one of the most useful apps on my phone, the latest update this week has made it close to useless for real world use. It used to be very reliable and seemed to translate with pretty reasonable precision, even for my work at an auto parts store with technical, specific terms. The latest update has ruined translate because it will cut off mid sentence, on both sides of the conversation, with horrible, useless translations.

this app is amazing! I use it often at work and when I am traveling abroad. it has helped me learn to read in other languages and is great for assisting in pronunciation. the accuracy is about 95% due to regional and country variations of som3 languages (Spanish) but it is accurate enough that you can communicate with very little or no knowledge of a given language.
