Poliglu Translator 4+

The Poliglu translator is a good device. However, there are times when the device doesn’t pick up exactly what you are saying. Lastly, it is almost impossible to slip in the neck chain.

Bought for a honeymoon to Japan and Korea. Some issues/pain points we found were:

1) I’m on the IPhone 15. As of writing this the app only works when the phone is in the “low power mode”. Otherwise it will stay on the loading screen indefinitely. Only found out by mistake when my phone was low and I tried the app. Hopefully that’ll get fixed.

2) The translation sometimes doesn’t catch what you say exactly right. However they also added a keyboard so that you can type the message to them as well slower but a good second option.

3) Wish you didn’t have to keep the app open while using it. It kinda defeats the purpose of having the extra device with you at all If you can do everything on the phone as well.

For the three reasons above I’m giving it 3 stars. Will come back and edit this if the issues get fixed.

Other than those issues the app and device work well and tried it with my Spanish speaking wife and it works very well.

Hope this helps.

When translating it cuts off the words printing on the screen so you are not able to read the entire translation. Also having trouble with the translation from English to Arabic
