Translation apps are essentially useful especially when you are abroad where the locals don’t speak your language.

Mobile gadgets such as smartphones and tablets have made communication between two people much easier.

If you are one of those that love to travel and experience a new and entirely different environment, translation apps will surely come in handy.

If you are new to travelling, you will realize that communicating in a foreign language can be a problem at times.

However, if you travelled abroad and struggling to ask for directions abroad, translation apps could turn out to be your best ever friend.

Translation Apps You Can Download

Table of Contents

  • Translation Apps You Can Download
  • #1). Google Translate
  • #2). Bing Translator
  • #3). Word Lens
  • #4). iTranslate
  • #5). All Languages Translator

There are many translation apps out there in the app store that you can download but the fact is that not all of them are actually great and easy to use.

For this reason, we have compiled a list of some of the best translation apps you can have on your mobile device whenever you are travelling abroad below:

#1). Google Translate

Free | Available on Android & iOS

Google Translate translation apps

When it comes to translation apps, Google Translate is arguably the best especially for dealing with idioms and brand names. Google Translate is an all-round super-comprehensive translation app that supported over 80 world languages and it’s available on Android and Apple’s iOS.

Some of the best features of this translation app is the fact that you can dictate, type and even write your query, whether you want to translate a complex phrase or just get a dictionary definition of a single word.

However, as good as Google Translate is, the app doesn’t work offline. This means you will need to be connected via Wi-Fi or mobile data if you’re using an iPhone, but Android users can download language packs for offline translation. Download Google Translate Here


#2). Bing Translator

Free | Available on Windows

Bing Translator translation apps

Bing Translator is your companion when you need to overcome the language barrier. You can use your camera, voice or keyboard to enter text you want to translate. Bing Translator is not as comprehensive as Google Translate or Apple’s iTranslate.

This translation app can only handle 40 languages and it definitely worth downloading if you use a Windows-powered smartphone.

It supports offline translation, which means you can translate when you are not connected to the Internet and when you want to avoid expensive data roaming charges, by using downloadable offline language packs. Download Bing Translator Here


#3). Word Lens

Available on Android & iOS

Word Lens translation apps

Word Lens is arguably the most sc-fi-like app and it instantly translates written words in real-time using your smartphone camera. You simply snap the text, and the words magically re-arrange into English in front of your eyes.

Whether it is a foreign sign or menu, the app can work the magic. And best of all, the database is offline, so you don’t even have to be connected to use the app.

Recently acquired by Google, the much-hyped app does have its limitations however. It can only translate individual words and doesn’t recognise context, so you may find the translations bitty and nonsensical at times. Expected to become more sophisticated in future. Download Word Lens Translator Here


#4). iTranslate

Available on iOS, Android & Windows

iTranslate translation apps

iTranslate is the world’s most popular translation app and with over 80 languages supported, it is just as comprehensive as Google Translate. This translation app offers voice input and output, but you won’t be able to write your query though.

The iTranslate supported over 80 languages, however, it depends on your operating system because the Android version of the app only handles 40 languages.

Handy if you’re travelling long haul, iTranslate is particularly nifty at romanising non-Latin characters. And The Text-to-Speech function is second to none. It can handle different dialects and you can even control the speaking rate. The Text-to-Speech function is also available offline. Download iTranslate Here


#5). All Languages Translator

Free | Android & Windows

All Languages Translator translation apps

All Languages Translator app can be really useful when you want to improve your vocabulary, writing skills and communication skills. It will also come handy especially when you are in a foreign country.

However, don’t get carried away with the name – All Languages Translator. It doesn’t mean the app can translate all languages of the world; it only supports 40 different languages.

Just select the language you want to convert ‘FROM’ and ‘TO’ in the box and hit the ‘TRANSLATE’ button. The desired result will be right in front of you instantly. It also has a built-in sound feature which plays the translated word. Download All Languages Translator Here
