Wooask G5 Pro Offline Language Translator Device | 138 Languages | Accurate Online and Offline Two Way AI Voice Translation for Travel Business White

The Wooask G5 Pro Offline AI Translator is a sleek little device. It can be so because it depends on your smartphone and the Wooask app to function. Also, if you want offline functionality, you'll need to pony up some money for a 7-day, 30-day, 3 month or 6 month subscription. These go, respectively, for $17.99 up to $89.99. Oh, and only 8 languages are available for offline use and it looks like you must buy a subscription for each one, so if you're traveling multiple countries, it could get pricey.My limited testing produced adequate results with French and Spanish, but I cannot vouch for Korean, Japanese or Chinese. But I can also see how useful such a device could be. The idea is you can converse with someone in each person's native language more or less seamlessly.Of course, we all want a universal translator don't we? If the Wooask team keeps updating their tech, good things could be in store in the future.

The app is buggy, and the device doesn't do ANYTHING without a connection to the phone. They force you to sign up for an account just to connect to the device, then the device just says "The bluetooth device is not connected properly." No amount of restarting of the phone or the device will cause it to start working.The instruction manual indicates you can only use 5 languages offline as well... Chinese, Japanese, English, French, Spanish. The device is entirely unnecessary because the app lets you do all the same things.This device is a glorified bluetooth speaker and microphone to control an app I wouldn't use to translate anything anyway, and it took over my phone's audio like a bluetooth headset... Even though it wasn't "properly connected."Absolute trash.

This is a very useful tool to have! Everyone needs one of these in my opinion. You can use it offline to talk to anyone who speaks another language. It makes it very easy to understand them and opens the door for communication.

The Wooask G5 Pro Offline Language Translator Device is a bit clumsy to set-up. First, you have to go online and open a free account. Then, if you want to use the device offline (a must when traveling overseas), you must individually download each language. After that, you have to get the pocket translator device to pair with your phone or tablet and manipulate the app, which, at least for me, didn't go smoothly. After about a half-hour of frustration I was ready to give up. Normally, I’m the technical/computer savvy person in the family, but as a last resort, I handed the pocket translator device and my Android tablet to my very non-technical wife. Somehow she did something that I didn't do, and the unit started working beautifully.I then turned everything off and tried again. This time it worked for me too.Two tips:1) The translator device works fine offline, but it must be paired with a tablet or a smartphone at all times. I used my Android tablet, and I’m glad I did, because both ends of the conversation are verbal and in type. It’s nice having a larger tablet screen to look at.2) Don’t be tempted to use the mic on your tablet or smartphone, as the translations are quite inaccurate that way. Use the pocket translator device (which is essentially just a microphone and a small speaker) for the most accurate translations. Also multi-language conversations are much faster, because you press and hold the top button for the language you are speaking, and then press and hold the bottom button for the language the other person is speaking.I’m giving the Wooask G5 Pro Offline Language Translator Device four stars, only because the set-up was a bit frustrating. (It might not be so for you.) But once my wife got the translator working, it was most definitely a five-star performer.Give Star Trek a big applause. This is yet another device predicted by the series that now has practical applications. As the author of the book “Cool Creatures: Hot Planet: Exploring the Seven Continents,” I have traveled all over the world. Communications would have been so much easier if I had this device while traveling for that book. I can’t wait to give the Wooask G5 Pro a real-life test my next time overseas!

I totally don't understand the point of this device. You are buying two things of this products:1) The Physical Device. This device acts just the same as a microphone and speaker, it doesn't work by itself, it must connected to a phone at all time, and the phone is acting as a brain. Because the phone is the brain, the app also need to be running (at least running in the background).2) The Service. It comes with an app that requires top up, and the top up is very expensive, like about $1 per day. If it's professional, then I totally understand the cost behind it. But i test out the languages that I am good enough at (English and Chinese), the translation is only OK, probably not even as good as Google Translate. There's offline service too, charged at a different rate. But when purchase this device, it comes with two years of free offline and online service.Also, it's hard to use, you need to download the app, create an account, linked the phone with Bluetooth (so you lose one simultaneous connection spot of Bluetooth for your other devices). The connection is also not automatically recognized by the app.I seriously don't see any value of this device. The device itself is poorly design in term of application. The service portion can be improve, and making it more accurate and more professional, but I really doubt this company can pull it off and continue to invest into the service, which is a lot more costly for the company than making a simple device.
