"Accurate, Fast, and Effortless Translations Across Languages—Google Translate Delivers"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

As a social media manager, I was working in four regions of the UAE, Indonesia, the US, and India. I had to translate my content into three languages without changing the original message of the content. Google Translate was a huge help in my work. The translation was up to the mark in local languages. I had tried the translation in Bahasa, Arabic, English, and Hindi; all were accurate. I could blindly depend on the features of the tool.

Easy steps- Select the target language from the list, check the translation, if the meaning differs, adjust words, and get accurate results.

Just paste in one box, and the translation is ready in another box in a few seconds. So simple and easy to use.

I use it for understanding messages with camera scanning and real-time translation.

My scope of work increased with Google Translate. Working on the same content for different regional markets is at my fingertips. I had cross-checked the translated versions with local language experts, and they said there were no errors, which is commendable.

I can translate in over 200 languages (from & to) for free. There are many languages included that we do not find in other translators.

It can even detect the language we insert.

We can speak and get the audio translated. It understands handwriting also.

It saves the history. We can edit the translated text.

It can work without internet for downloaded content. It can also work on images.

The tool is easy to implement, just log in, insert input, and get going.

Even the punctuations are correct.

Upload large pdf or docs, and they are also translated in bulk.

Integrates well with all the tools you are working with.

It is available on Android, iOS, web, and offline.

It is good for general content, emails, social media copies, memes, blogs, message responses, articles, and newsletters.

I have published the content translated from this tool on X(Twitter), LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, etc., and received good engagement.

It has made my written communication easy, helped me to connect with people across the globe, and empowered me to understand markets without a language barrier.

Good customer support when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

No dislikes. There can be obvious mistakes where the meaning of slang, idioms, punches might vary in different languages. This tool might not be completely reliable for sensitive documents like legal, privacy policy, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simple, Fast, and Incredibly Handy for Instant Translations"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

Google Translate’s best quality is how quickly and effortlessly it helps you understand another language.

What stands out

- Instant translations that are usually accurate enough to get the meaning right.

- Support for a huge number of languages, even less‑common ones.

- Voice, camera, and handwriting input, which makes it useful in real‑world situations.

- Offline mode, so you can translate even without internet access.

It’s simple, fast, and incredibly handy whenever you need quick language help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

Google Translate’s main downside is that its accuracy can drop with complex sentences, slang, or context‑heavy phrases. It often gives very literal translations, so the meaning can come out awkward or slightly off Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quick, easy, and very practical: translations in seconds with voice and images"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

What I like most about Google Translate is its speed and ease of use: it allows you to translate texts and phrases in seconds, even with voice or images, which makes it very practical for everyday use and for communicating in other languages without complications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

What I didn't like at all is the clicking to translate, I spend my time talking to people in English on Discord and other apps. Before, when I clicked to copy text and then just touched the option, the process was practically automatic, now it's not, now you have to delete and then paste, it's awkward and slow.

"Broad Language Support and Accurate Translations"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

I use Google Translate for quick language translation, especially when traveling or working with multilingual content. I like its accuracy, easy-to-use interface, and usefulness for everyday translations. The wide language support makes it super handy for travel and work. We switched from Microsoft Translator to Google Translate because of its broader language support, more accurate translation, and better integration with our existing Google services. The initial setup was very straightforward and easy, which made the whole process smooth and quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

It often struggles with idioms and slang, so the translation sometimes misses the real meaning of the original phrase. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Essential Tool for Instant and Reliable Translations"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

I like that with Google Translate, we can use the scan feature to instantly translate any language we don’t know. It's easy to use; if we have it from the Play Store, we just need to log in, but if we're using it on Google, we just need to search for Google Translate and start translating. I also rely on its instant translation for converting website content and chats on apps like WhatsApp or other social media. I definitely would give it a 10 out of 10 because it's been around forever—I've been using it for translation since childhood, even before other apps existed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

It's good for translation, but for learning English, Google Translate needs to upgrade its features. It could also improve for learning any new language. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Must-have tips"
What do you like best about Google Translate?

What I like best about Google Translate is that it has no limits — you can translate various types of files, making it extremely versatile. I also find the camera feature very useful, as it allows you to translate text in real time. It’s simple, intuitive, and fast. Moreover, with the “Detect language” option, there’s no need to specify the source language. In short, it’s a must-have tool that’s always good to keep within reach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Google Translate?

What I dislike about Google Translate is that, compared to some competitors, its translations are sometimes less detailed and precise. Other platforms provide more advanced tools for reviewing text at the individual word level. I would also suggest adding an option to choose different translation styles depending on the context or region (including dialects). In addition, Google Translate doesn’t support documents larger than 10 MB — it would be very helpful to include a built-in splitter to handle larger files automatically.
