Difficult to use along with other apps. Many frequent uses take too many steps. Like copy and paste. Meanwhile why is font size so much larger then device default? And yet not adjustable? Update: tap-to-translate is helpful for usability, but a bit buggy; will create multiple floating icons. I will use tap to translate floating windows for incoming messages (in Spanish), and then I will use the full screen app to check my outgoing message as I type (in Spanish; I'm learning).

Google Translate’s conversation feature is mind-blowing! It translates live as you speak, and you can pause as much as you need before hitting the button to let it read out the translation. I recommend using manual playback instead of auto-read to avoid interruptions mid-speech. The transcription is super accurate, even for Indian languages, making it perfect for smooth, natural conversations. Although it struggles with translation here and there, it does the job.

Is the Live translate option from my Google Pixel phone part of this app? It used to live translate messages on whatsapp without having downloaded the language. Now it only does it if i download that language. But the download never finishes. It's been at it for hours on 5G speed and still, it's not over. At least make a percentage bar to see if it's downloading or not. Or fix the issue please. It was really useful, but now useless feature.
