Title: Message translations
Post by: Colloc on January 20, 2018, 05:45:13 AM

I have Skype for Windows 10 installed on my laptop and the instant translation of text messages is really quite good.
I went out and bought an iPad yesterday to untie me from the laptop only to realise that message translation isn't supported in IOS for Skype.
It's a real pain having to cut and paste one liners all the time.
Is there an alternative app / way of doing it?
Thanks in advance

Skype translate for iOS was advertised as launched over 1.5 years ago - with Russian added in Oct 2016
