Offline translation in the iOS app is unreliable right now — fixed in the next update

Offline translation in the Sumi iOS app (1.0.7) can crash or fail to load, mostly on iPhones and iPads without much free memory. The next version stops offering models a device can't run and falls back to another engine instead of failing. It's already submitted and sitting with App Review — I won't promise a date, since that queue isn't mine.

Only on-device translation is affected. Cloud translation works normally, and so do the web translator and the Chrome extension.

If you bought the offline pack in the app, I've added 1,000 cloud pages to your account so you can keep reading in the meantime. Nothing to claim, and it isn't a refund. Don't see them? Reply here.

Sorry for the trouble.
