iSpeak Dutch app review: translate text and listen

Reviews

Introduction

If you grab iSpeak Dutch on your iPhone or iPad, you'll have a handy two-way translator along with a voice synthesizer that can help you communicate with others in Dutch, both verbally and by text.

There are dozens upon dozens of translator apps available within the App Store, ranging from the very basic ones to some extremely detailed and comprehensive apps with plenty of features. This app manages to stay in the middle, as it's both simple to use as well as contains just the right features to make it a fantastic translation tool.

You can find this app in the Reference section of the App Store, where it can be purchased for $1.99. This is a fair price for an app such as this one when you consider the costs of purchasing expensive translation tools and books.

Let's take a look at its features.

Sizeable Translator

iSpeak Dutch appears to be made with a lot of attention to details and regard for the user experience. Though this app takes up a whopping 143 MB of space on your iOS device, it's likely the awesome text-to-speech synthesizer that constitutes most of this space.

Besides, it's fairly easy to accommodate an app like this one especially if you wish to make it a priority to have a handy translator at your fingertips, whether you are aiming to communicate with a Dutch person with no prior knowledge of the language, or wishing to improve your already-advanced command of Dutch.

iOS-Friendly Features

The interface of this app is rather simple and intuitive, so you likely won't need to spend a lot of time learning how to use this app. Regular iOS functions are fully leveraged in this app, such as clipboard integration and background audio support.

Clipboard integration allows users to paste in large chunks of text into this app so that you can easily import articles, emails, and even documents by simply copy-pasting them into this app. By tapping on the Speak It button, you'll get to listen to the synthesized audio of your translated text in your target language.

This is where the background audio support comes in: if you play a large audio file, you don't have to stick around on this app while you listen; you can use other apps, multitask, or even read the text while you listen for two-pronged approach to language input.
