My Microsoft Translator on Android changed out of all recognition on about the 11th June 2025. The new version doesn't seem to have an option to download an offline language. Text recognition no longer works. Is this affecting anyone else please? I loved the old version but the new one seems very poor.

    I can only agree with all those voicing their dismay at the latest upgrade. What was a brilliant app is now really awful. As for downloading the legacy version, well, no way can I get that to work. And the Pro Tip about enabling a hidden Legacy Mode also doesn't work. There is no "About Translator" when I go to Settings. Next Update: Track progress here - takes you to a dead page when you click on it. It wasn't broken so why "fix" it?
