I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but I downloaded the Japanese folder and still couldn't get any proper translations. I tried photographing a full sentence, a single word, and typing one in, both hiragana and romanji and got gibberish for the translation result. I was very disappointed considering the stars and the fact that this is Microsoft. If I did something wrong or missed a step, I'm willing to change my review, but as it stands, this app doesn't translate Japanese at all for me.

After the newest update, I can't stand the app. The formatting is ugly and unnecessarily complicated. Feels like it's trying to push users teaching users instead of simply translating my text. Has some new features (that I'll never use) but removed the ability to view different forms of a translation and what the context behind them. You can no longer view the two translations for Japanese. Also can no longer copy the text easily. I'd much rather use Google translate, and that says something.

I use it all the time ----- Now I hate it. The newest update has been a real disappointment. You can't edit. Copying translations is more difficult. And there are no alternative translations shown. It seems optimized for active conversation translation. Which is not what I want. I would like the old version back. Otherwise I'm going to need to find a different app.
