Hi,

Does anybody know of a good translator app (language translator, spanish to english, french to german, etc.) that works offline? I've found a couple but they only work online. I'm willing to pay a small price ($3 or something) if necessary.

Thanks!

I'm looking for one too. Are there any that speak out loud because there is no way I can pronounce French or German words clearly on my first Europe trip this summer.
 
Check out the iSpeak series, I know you can get voice translation with that one. Not 100% sure about offline but I thought I saw that in their description. I haven't purchased that one yet but it sounds top notch.
 
is the ispeak range offline?

just checked on itunes....and no. once youve saved the result it is available offline
 
it says:

"Internet connection is required to obtain initial translation. Once the translation is saved, no interent connection is needed to view or speak a translation"
 
Offline translator apps

A really good new language translation app just got released into the :apple: apps catalog. Its called Communilator. Its able to recognize and translate foreign text (books, newspapers, menus, etc.) in 44 languages and dialects captured with the iphone camera; of delivering translations in 3,000 language-pairs; of providing High Quality (HQ) Speech for translations in 21 foreign languages; of Voice Recognition* (4S iphone required) and a lot more.
One of the features is the ability to save your favorite translations and the app automatically stores all your translations into your history. So even though the phrases require a data connection the first time they are translated, you can reuse them as much as you like off-line by going into your history and favorites folder since they are stored in your phone.
