Edit: I'm still getting notifications to practice when clearly I don't have it.* Decide whether you want me to have access to Practice Mode or not because you've made it available twice and pulled them off the same. Either I should have it or not, just decide which. I don't want to invest time on an app feature that could be pulled off just like that.

The camera functionality is now much improved over older versions of this app. I can take a picture of a whole page of text, and then scan around translating individual words as needed. However, it would be even better if we could select a word, choose "Send to Translate Home" to get more info about the word, and then go back to the photo. Right now, after "Send to Translate Home", we have to retake the photo, which interrupts the flow.

This app is invaluable!!! I would be having a hard time in Costa Rica without it. The only drawback is that when using the microphone to say the message you want translated, if you pause even sightly, it stops. Google talk to text is great - you can pause for 10 seconds to gather your thoughts and continue speaking. It's very frustrating when using this app because it's constantly stopping and you have to start over. I find myself using Google Talk to Text in another screen, then copying and pasting my message in Google Translate to be translated. It makes using the 'conversation' mode of the app useless because it's a slow process. Change the lag time to 10 seconds and this gets a robust 5 out of 5 stars from me!
