Documents and images enter translation
Yandex Translate describes translation for individual words, phrases, full texts, photos, documents, and web pages. Its document page names image, office-document, spreadsheet, and presentation formats, with a stated file-size ceiling.
The vendor describes document translation into Russian and vice versa from English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Turkish, and other languages. Separately, irecommend.ru describes app features for text, images, websites, and conversations.
A reviewer on apps.apple.com describes photo translation, live photo translation, and vocabulary learning with saved words. A third-party listing also describes translation of text, websites, images, and documents. These app and listing descriptions are not vendor specifications.
Free listings do not settle commercial pricing
- 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, with a free version — checked 2026-11-01.
The personal-use qualification appears in ailist.ru’s description, not in the other listed price statements. A separate ailist.ru listing says commercial integrations require a cloud API. Treat these as third-party descriptions, not as a complete price schedule or vendor terms.
Checks before relying on translation
Ask which terms apply to your intended use, including whether personal and commercial use are treated differently. The source material describes a separate API route for commercial integrations, so clarify what access that route requires.
For a translation task, check whether the supported language direction and content type match your needs.
Microphone permission and text entry
The service asks for browser microphone permission.
The page displays a text counter with a limit of 10,000. Collections may not work in incognito mode, according to the vendor page. If collections are part of your workflow, check their availability in the browser mode you plan to use.
File size and app reports narrow use
The vendor document page limits listed files to 5 MB each. The vendor also says collections may not work in incognito mode. These conditions matter when documents exceed the stated cap or saved vocabulary is part of the workflow.
Third-party app reviews describe differing image-translation experiences. According to irecommend.ru, one reviewer said image translation had worked incorrectly before, then worked well after recent updates. A reviewer on apps.apple.com reported frequent translation errors and words sometimes missing.
On apps.apple.com, individual reviewers also reported microphone interruptions during pauses, app failures after recent updates, and missing offline support for Czech. These are individual reports, not measured performance findings. See “What we could not confirm” for outstanding checks.

Compare translators by workflow and terms
In general, compare supported languages and formats, document handling, input limits, and commercial access. Check privacy statements and support arrangements against the workflow you need.
Document and web translation set the fit
The listed inputs cover text, photos, documents, and web pages, while the document page describes translation into Russian and vice versa.
For commercial integrations, ailist.ru describes a separate cloud API route. Check the access conditions for that route before building it into a commercial workflow.

Questions about limits, files, and access
Does the page show a text limit?
Yes. The vendor page displays a text counter with a limit of 10,000. The counter describes the page’s stated text limit; it does not establish whether other translation inputs follow the same limit. Check the relevant input before preparing longer material.
What happens when browser microphone permission is requested?
The service asks for browser microphone permission. This confirms a permission prompt, not how speech is processed or how well dictation works. Decide whether the microphone feature belongs in your workflow, then review the browser’s permission settings.
Can collections work in incognito mode?
The vendor says collections may not work in incognito mode. That qualification applies to collections, rather than establishing a limitation for every translation input. If saved collections matter to your workflow, check them in the browser mode you intend to use.
Does commercial integration use the same access route?
A listing on ailist.ru says commercial integrations require a separate cloud API. This describes a distinction between the translation service and commercial integration access. Ask what access conditions and charges apply before planning an integration.
Which languages does the vendor describe?
The vendor names English, German, French, Spanish, Polish, Turkish, Russian, and other languages. The document page separately describes translation into Russian and vice versa from several named languages and others. Confirm the required direction and content type for your task.
What independent sources report
Ailist.ru reports that Yandex Translate offers web access and mobile apps for iOS and Android. The listing also says commercial integrations require a separate cloud API. Toolfox.ru lists a free version of Yandex Perevodchik.
Choose by translation scope and access
Fits if web access and mobile apps for iOS and Android suit your workflow.
Probably not if commercial integration is central and the separate cloud API route described by ailist.ru does not fit your setup.
Main risk… commercial integrations require a separate cloud API, according to ailist.ru.
