Questions about Translator keyboard
What people ask before they try it.
Is the keyboard free?
The keyboard, its layouts and themes are free. Translating as you type, translating copied text, grammar check, word predictions and clipboard history are part of Pro.
Why does it ask for Full Access?
iOS requires Full Access before a keyboard can use the network, and translation needs it. Your text is sent only to translate it or check its grammar when you ask.
Which apps can I use it in?
Any app where the iPhone keyboard appears: Messages, WhatsApp, Mail, Notes, Safari and the rest. iOS switches to its own keyboard in password fields, as it does for every third-party keyboard.
