iTranslate 1.0.2.0
When only your mobile handset is at hand, keeping a specialized tool installed on it so as to carry out quick translations is a must. One of the utilities designed to provide such functionality is iTranslate and it is made to accommodate the needs of Windows Phone users.
Clear look and intuitive layout
This application offers you a simple, yet quite practical and well structured interface, where the ease of use is one of the main goals. It has a light color scheme and its nice graphics are consistent all through the app.
The features and commands are all at hand, while moving around the various sections of the app is done quite smoothly and without any delays or other types of flaws.
There are, nonetheless, ad banners that keep flashing and changing inside the main screen of iTranslate and getting rid of them is only possible by purchasing the Premium version.
Select the language pair and translate texts
The whole purpose of this app is to help you get translations as quickly and as accurately as possible and the tool is pretty well prepared for this job. There are just over 80 languages at your disposal and there is a "Detect Language" feature you can use for the source text.
If for the input iTranslate only handles text content, after the interlingual rendition is complete the application enables you to listen to the translation in the target language and hear the correct pronunciation.
View translation history and save favorites
With this utility you can revisit all the attempts you made to translate some words and phrases as they are kept inside the "History" area. In addition, you can select any of those entries and mark them as favorites, so you can load them from the dedicated section even if you choose to empty the translation history.
From the "Settings" area of iTranslate you can activate the live tile and view the last translation on the Start screen as the tile flips. Also, you can enable the auto correction function, which works only if AutoCorrect is active in the keyboard settings.
In case you want to share any translations you make with this app, it is possible to send them out via SMS, email or through social networks directly form inside the utility.
