Finally tried the app in my Galaxy Player and it works like a charm. I
really like the new simplified version. I don't miss anything from the old
one and I find it really easy and intuitive to use. Having the possibility
of installing language pairs from the SD card would be nice, but I guess
that the vast majority of users would never use this feature.
There are two things that I would like to comment though:
- The text area to display the translations is editable, which doesn't seem
to make much sense. Moreover, the 'Next' button that appears when editing
the text to translate on landscape mode brings me there, which is rather
annoying.
- The "ClipBoard Get" and "ClipBoard Push" options in the settings don't
seem to have any effect for me... What are they supposed to do?
All the rest seems to be working correctly. Performance is really good as
well, I still remember how our first versions were continuously crashing
and required about a minute to translate a simple sentence for some
language pairs...
