Any good alternative to Google Translator in Android? (lemmy.world)

I've been using DeepL in Translate You for some time, but lately I don't like that it is so limited, I mean its api, I would like to find something open source that gives the same results, because with DeepL I haven't had any problems...

I use Translate You with DeepL as well. Some time ago it stopped accepting my API key. Now I use the free API which works fine. I didn't dig to deep but what changed with the API? 🤔

Does it work offline?

Sadly not. I wonder if anyone ever tried to bring MarianNMT to Android?

Sometimes the translator doesn't work for me with the free api

I remember that I also tried this gTranslate frontend once. Even thougt not an alternative might be a temporary solution.

I don't use it much, so never noticed. But did you ever try with your own API key by chance? It worked fine for me, but now I get 403 error.
