Also try scan and translate. Take a pic of a document on your iphone or ipad and translate it. Set it up to translate Spanish to English

You can speak into google translate and it will translate it for you. It will also read the translation. But you have to be on a network (Internet, etc) for it to work.

I can't get it to work. It keeps saying there is an error. Any suggestions?

Try Jibbigo. You can do voice translations between almost any languages for free by internet. I bought the English / Spanish that works without internet. After the most recent update I saw a bunch of offline languages for free. Not sure if that was a promo or if they changed to all free?

I did it on an ipad and have used it several times. Delete the app and d/l it again and try it.

Jibbigo was recently bought by Facebook and it looks like language packages are now free. No one has mentioned Google Translate on Android and IOS. It also has free download packages for offline use.
