the translation it's doing automatically is almost laughable if you're a native Italian
Unfortunately nearly useless thanks to their token price gouging
So many bugs and mistakes in the translations handled by Transcy
Too expensive compared to other similar apps. Their pricing model is thought to grow exponentially.
They take money, but the program doesn’t work and translates nothing.
