Yandex Translate

Yandex Translate logo on the cover of the review

Yandex Translate handles words, phrases, full texts, photos, documents, and web pages; the provider’s page displays a text counter with a limit of 10,000.

For buyers comparing translation tools, the practical question is whether the listed formats and stated conditions match the task.

What can words, photos, and pages become?

The provider lists translation for individual words and phrases, full texts, photos, documents, and web pages. Its language description names English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Turkish, Russian, and other languages.

Third-party descriptions add detail about app functions: irecommend.ru describes text, image, website, and conversation translation, while ailist.ru lists text, websites, images, and documents. An App Store reviewer describes photo translation, live photo translation, and vocabulary learning with saved words.

The provider’s document page gives a narrower language description than its general service page, tying document translation to Russian in both directions. This distinction matters when a task depends on a particular language pair or input type.

How do microphone access and collections fit?

The service asks for browser microphone permission, while its collections feature carries an incognito-mode caveat.

The provider warns that collections may not work in incognito mode.

A third-party app listing describes conversation translation, and an App Store reviewer mentions live photo translation and saved vocabulary.

What do the free-use listings actually say?

The third-party descriptions differ in scope: one calls the app free of charge, while another limits its statement to personal, non-commercial use.

  • irecommend.ru — reviewer describes the app as free of charge — checked 2026-11-01.
  • ailist.ru — interface described as free for personal, non-commercial use — checked 2026-11-01.
  • toolfox.ru — service listed as free and as having a free version — checked 2026-11-01.

Ailist.ru also states that basic translation does not require registration or payment. The same listing says commercial integrations require a separate cloud API.

What should buyers check before relying on it?

Before using a translation service for work, ask how submitted text, images, and documents are handled. Clarify whether retention, processing, or reuse terms differ by input type.

Ask what usage rules apply to personal, business, and integrated use. Request the terms that govern each use case rather than assuming that a free-use description covers every workflow.

Confirm which language pairs and input formats are supported for your specific task. Ask what setup an integration requires, how support is reached, and which legal entity provides the service.

Which translation inputs are documented?

The provider’s pages describe several distinct input types, and third-party listings add web and mobile access.

  • The provider lists individual words, phrases, full texts, photos, documents, and web pages for translation.
  • Its document page names common office and image formats, including jpg, pdf, docx, and xlsx.
  • The provider describes document translation from the listed languages into Russian and vice versa.
  • Ailist.ru reports web access and mobile apps for iOS and Android.

Where do the input and app limits bite?

The clearest documented constraints are the text counter, document file-size cap, and an incognito-mode caveat for collections. The provider displays a text limit of 10,000 and lists a maximum file size of 5 MB.

  • The provider warns that collections may not work in incognito mode.
  • On apps.apple.com, a reviewer reported frequent translation errors and occasional missing words; this is one reviewer’s report, not a general finding.
  • On apps.apple.com, a reviewer said the microphone turned off quickly during dictation, including during short pauses.
  • On apps.apple.com, one reviewer reported that the app stopped working after the last two or three updates.
  • On apps.apple.com, a reviewer said the app lacked offline support for Czech.

Several details are missing; they are listed under What we could not confirm.

Who can use the listed translation formats?

The listed formats suit tasks involving words, longer text, photos, documents, or web pages, provided the input meets the stated conditions.

For document translation, the provider describes language directions into Russian and vice versa, and lists the supported file formats. For text and files, check the displayed limits against the material you need to process.

Which translation criteria belong in comparison?

Compare language coverage and input formats against the actual material you need translated. Check how pricing scope, usage terms, API access, privacy statements, and support are documented before choosing a service.

What we could not confirm

  • Pricing, plans, trial, and refund terms
  • Rules, terms of use, and restrictions
  • Company legal entity, address, and history
  • Support channels and response times
  • Integrations and setup requirements
  • Complete current language list and language-pair coverage
  • API documentation, access conditions, and pricing details
  • Provider privacy and data-handling statements
  • Independent assessment of translation quality across languages and input types

What do the listed translation details answer?

Does the service list translation beyond full text?

Yes. The provider lists individual words and phrases, full texts, photos, documents, and web pages as translation inputs. That describes the range of listed input types; it does not establish how well each type works for a particular task.

Which languages does the document page describe?

The provider describes document translation from English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Turkish, and other languages into Russian, and vice versa.

What does the text counter mean for a longer passage?

The provider’s page displays a text counter with a limit of 10,000. That is the stated condition for the text field; check the counter against the passage you intend to submit before relying on it.

Does the provider request microphone access?

Yes. The provider says the service asks for browser microphone permission. An App Store reviewer separately reported that the microphone turned off quickly during dictation, including during short pauses; that is one reviewer’s account.

Do the free-use descriptions cover commercial integrations?

Ailist.ru describes the interface as free for personal, non-commercial use and says commercial integrations require a separate cloud API.

Does the documented scope fit your task?

Fits if the listed input formats cover your material and the stated text and file conditions suit the task.

Probably not if your workflow needs a commercial integration without a separate cloud API, as ailist.ru reports.

Main risk… treating third-party free-use descriptions as complete pricing terms, or relying on individual app-review reports as general evidence.
