I like the clean layout and the split-pane conversation translate feature. It would be better to reverse the top pane so the person receiving the message can read and respond directly. It is a bit slower than Google (fractionally), but in translating English <> Spanish, the accuracy is very good.

Living in Korea, this is a life saver. I use it daily for survival, and for helping my English students learn proper and accurate translations. Google translate does not compare to this app. Papago is extremely accurate and the only reliable Korean-English application. The voice is very natural sounding and accurate, it helps me when I need last second translations and to hear its pronunciation! Again, you cannot go wrong with this app!

I use Papago all the time when I'm working on my Japanese studies and when I want to know what images say! I'm normally content enough with Google translate, but it just doesn't do as well of a job when it comes to translating Japanese. It also has the unfortunate feature as of late that it refuses to pick up the characters in an image, even when they're in plain text... It was incredibly frustrating, so Naver is really a lifesaver! It reads my images perfectly and translates JP so much better!
