Translate app on iPhone no longer works after recent software update

I don’t remember exactly when, but since one of the last software updates the translate app on my iPhone does not work properly anymore. It just doesn’t download the languages and it says that without downloading them it is not possible to use the app. Has anyone got the same problem?

I have installed the Google Play app English Polish Translator by MobiLionInc on my Nokia mobile today. All ok. Now I want to download it to my iPad but it won’t let me. Says it is already installed on the Nokia and no other devices available (although it says you can download it to other devices) . Can anyone help please?

You can’t install Google play stuff on Apple devices, only apps you get from apple’s App Store.

For me it’s far worse than this.


I can download languages, I can enter text. Everything seems fine.


upon inputting text: it doesn’t do anything. Whether or not the language is downloaded. Whether I have offline translate turned on or off.


I enter text and it simply does not produce a translation.


Im going to rate the app 1 star until this is fixed.


although its already rated 2 stars and Apple doesn’t seem to care.

Hi, my Key nounce(Bengali) is not working to write my language in WhatsApp.

Are you talking about Apple's Bengali keyboard or something else? If Apple's keyboard, what exactly is not working about it.


I tried to download ‘ iTranslate Translator’ which is not downloading or working at all. What can I do?

You need to contact the people who make that app. This forum is for Apple products. Try Google Translate instead.
