Google Translate
Google Translate is a free translation service that provides instant translations between dozens of different languages. It can translate words, sentences and web pages between any combination of our supported languages. With Google Translate, we hope to make information universally accessible and useful, regardless of the language in which it’s written.

iTranslate
The most popular translator App, completely re-imagined for iOS7. With the new iTranslate you can now translate words, phrases and text in over 80 supported languages. Use voice recognition to type and listen to translations using text-to-speech. Select between different dialects, male and female and even control the speaking rate.

In the vast and bewildering cosmos of translation apps, two titans have emerged to save humans from their perennial confusion over foreign languages: Google Translate and iTranslate. Google Translate, being from the mighty tech behemoth Google, naturally has access to more languages than any reasonable person could ever hope to speak, read, or even mime. Not only does it translate text with the grace of a well-oiled machine (which it literally is), but it also listens to you babble in various tongues, peers through your camera to decipher foreign menus and even works when your internet has forsaken you, a rare feat indeed.

iTranslate, meanwhile, takes a slightly different approach. It offers much of the same magic: text, voice and offline translation, all wrapped up in a user-friendly package so simple that even a Vogon could navigate it without needing to compose poetry in frustration. Not content with mere functionality, iTranslate adds a few delightful extras, like a translation keyboard, which might lead you to believe you're effortlessly bilingual and the ability to share your newly-translated wisdom across social media, for those moments when you absolutely must inform the world about the meaning of a random street sign in perfect Portuguese.

In the end, both Google Translate and iTranslate are like intergalactic hitchhikers with their own peculiarities. Google Translate, with its vast database and machine learning wizardry, is the trusty towel you never leave home without. iTranslate, on the other hand, is like a digital friend who makes sure you’re both understood and stylish while you bumble your way through interplanetary linguistic chaos. Choose wisely, or, better yet, use both—you can never have too many tools when faced with the complexities of the universe.
