I don't think there's anything better than translate you atm.
Also I don't get your point, you don't like translate you because it is limited because of deepl api? Limited how? And how would another app fix the limitation with the API?

Could just learn the language I guess but then you gotta trust your own head
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.
