Tap Translate - Translate directly from Safari App Reviews

Yeah the setupn is confusing but theres a video setup, Loved it !

My wife got this app to help her, she is from Ukraine. We were pleased to find support for the Ukrainian language. Works well, it even translates entire webpages! Translations are not %100, but awesome nonetheless. Set up is easy, took about 10 seconds to do. I highly recommend this app

The application doesnt work properly. Not recommended.

Easy setup, it works very well and its free for today.

Its exactly that I looked for! Thanks

This app is the best within others Easy to integrate with Safari With just few touches Work perfectly with iOS5 Also clean interface Nothing to say more, this is the best

Excellent app. :) Easy to integrate and use.

This $10 app is nothing more than a bit of javascript and a basic server-side script that returns the translation. its ingenious but overpriced for what it does. There is no offline support which would be most helpful.

Doesnt work well for browser translation. Not worth the money.

The idea looks good but it doesnt work on my iPhone. I dont know if it is something to with iOS 5.0.1 but its not working on my phone! please fix it.

Thanks

pls fix！！！

This app is still a total waste of money because you cant translate links with this program. When you go to the tap-translate bookmark in Safari it tells you to click on the word to see the translation. Well guess what happens if the word is a link...thats right, it takes you to the link instead of translating the word. For real??! This is the biggest waste of money until they can come up with some kind of fix for this. When I am surfing the web most of the things I want translated are links.

I was about to give 5 stars but I found a bug or may be some restrictions. I am unable to translate most sentences, 80% of the time. Itll prompt "text too long" My main purpose is to translate email I got, but it useless as 100% of the time itll prompt "text too long" So this apps failed 80% of the time when trying to translate sentences on webpage, and 100% of the time when trying to translate sentences on email.

I recently purchased tap-dictionary and tap-translate. They both work well. After integrating both into safari, do I need to re-integrate either one if I go between tap dictionary and tap translate?

I just installed it and tried it in different websites. Its work great for what its advertised for. Just know how to use it. I think its suitable for word, not for long text. It doesnt work offline. Its just use the same idea that are already used in the browser.

I bought this app to work with one specific website that has a little bit of JavaScript on it. This app doesnt work on it at all. I have made it work on some sites, but not on the sites Im trying to use. If this app doesnt work on certain sites, they should clearly disclose that. I want my money back. Buyer beware.

7-1-12: iPhone 4s, 64gb, OS 5.1.1, latest app update: When I integrated w/Safari (which I think is a FABULOUS idea, btw), I could only get it to work the first time w/I having to restart the app. Devs, and plans to upgrade & fix probs? I hope so! Tried going to website to contact you, but only what seemed to be a Japanese porn site opened up (I wouldnt know for sure because it wouldnt translate it!)!

Pros I just bought this app for my iPad 2 to read German newspapers and it works seamlessly in Safari. One click on a word and a translation pops up immediately. Click the "+" button on the Pop-up and you get a translation of the paragraph. So far I havent encountered the "babblefish" effect where you know the translation is just nonsense. Cons They advertise "hear the word pronounced". Well, the Robot voice does say something when you click the "play" button but unless you want to mispronounce everything dont even bother. Its totally wrong. I almost suspect they used a Speak n Spell. The advertised "translate sentences & paragraphs" does work with short texts but once you get beyond the length of a twitter feed it will simply display "Oops! Text is too long!" I guess I prefer logical translations of short text over an entire page of nonsense. But seriously, major updates needed to do the full range. Summary All in all. Im giving this a 4 for translate and 2 for overall value. It translates words in Safari immediately and gives accurate translations. Easy to install, no hassle and works on the first try. No fussy trouble shooting. Why 2 then? Because it is too expensive ! LISTEN UP DEVELOPER : I will be happy to purchase it for 6-9 bucks when you ACTUALLY have an somewhat decent pronunciation and can translate paragraphs without error messages. Otherwise this is at most a Beta release FREE or you should sell it as a $2 app that doesnt have those functions. I feel cheated and if I could get my money back I would. (quite angry to be honest) Ps. The German version robot simply pronounces German words in English! .??? What were you guys thinking?

The translation part is ok. Foreign pronunciation is ridiculous. You also get an advertisement for Tap-Dictionary every time you tap for a translation.
