Good!
I like this app. I started using it a long time ago on the web, and have grown rather fond of it while translating Mandarin Chinese text to/from English for my Immersion classes. It is also useful because I am an aspiring writer. This app provides translations to Latin, definitions of words, and creative words to use in place of others, and so allows me to free up my narration and supply my readers (mostly just friends and family at this point 😁) with a more unique and alluring sound. I highly recommend this application. I have no problems with this app, only a few suggestions, the first being; on the translate feature in this app, it would be really nice if we could “heart” or “favorite” languages so that they stay at the top of the list of languages, ready for use. (So yeah, this suggestion is mostly here in this review because I’m lazy 😏. ) The second suggestion (and last) is: could you please add a “Names” feature? I can never come up with names for characters. It would be really nice if you could. Overall, this is an excellent app. I enjoy using it and have benefitted from it in the short time that I have had it. I highly recommend it for everyone and anyone who is interested in this app. -loonymoon

Everyone else was wrong!
I searched high and low for an English>German translator app that could translate a phrase, that actually worked and was correct! Look no more! Word Hippo was the only one who gave the correct answer let alone AN answer. Others may be able to do one word but don’t bother putting in a small phrase. Only Word Hippo did it and it gave easy to read translations but also different ways it’s used. I’m training a German Shepherd in German and the other apps couldn’t handle the phrase “Leave it!” But Word Hippo did it and did it well! Thank you Word Hippo!

Versatile features and excellent translations
Having seen many translation systems and apps including google, I found this app perhaps the best. It translated one English word in all appropriate forms of usage into my native language. Here I want to differentiate translation from giving a lengthy meaning. WHippo tres to give one word equivalent in another language of request. It also provides the adjunct words in different usage. All this is shown in one page instead of going to many links. Everything considered, I highly recommend this app.
