Ratings and Reviews
The updates doesn’t fix this one issue
It was working great for me but one day after updating the app it became a disaster. I was able to translate Arabic to English and English to Arabic from pictures in previous versions which as a student got me addicted to this app. But with previous few updates it’s gone and I can’t do it anymore. I request you to do something and bring back this feature. Its been more than couple of months now!
Outstanding
I was waiting from a long time to get updating of my nationwide language Malayalam they updated that’s also
Now I can translate that to any language with my voice.
Google are doing very good job.
Wrong traslation
Before it was one of the best tranlators and now it became worse as translating totally wrong, to turkish english because I know both language fluent so I can understand that this application is translates totally wrong.

Google Translate Document
In late 2017, Google announced several enhancements to language support in Google Docs like additional font support for non-Latin scripts like Cyrillic and Devanagari as well as the availability of templates in four new languages: European Spanish, Latin American Spanish, French, and Brazilian Portuguese. And recently, the company added templates in Hindi, German, Indonesian, Japanese, Dutch, and Chinese.
Google Docs supports around 70 languages on web, Android, and iOS, Allen Yang, product manager at G Suite said in an email. And any enterprise that seeks to serve people around the world will need tools that support communication in multiple languages. For each supported language, user interfaces need to enable: the use of application capabilities, input methods that capture words efficiently, fonts that display all characters clearly, and spellcheck and autocorrect services that identify potential errors and offer alternatives accurately.
'In November of this year, we announced increased support for non-Latin fonts— this opened up 800+ new font choices for our non-Latin users,' Yang said. 'On Voice, we support over 40 languages with no training or setup required. After launching the feature, we heard from users that they wanted us to focus on dialects of those 40 languages, so we added support for English (Australia), English (Canada), and English (Ghana), among others.'
Google offers several language selection settings. On desktop systems, you can change your preferred language associated with your Google account (Login at myaccount.google.com, then go to Language & Input Tools), as well as within Chrome (Settings > Advanced > Language).
You can also translate a document into another language from within Google Docs (Tools > Translate document). Optionally, you can select text, copy it, then paste it into the Google Translate service on the web (https://translate.google.com) or in a mobile app.
