The new app also features:

 

Listen to your translations spoken out loud in one of 23 different languages.

Easily enlarge the translated text to full-screen size.

Access your starred translations and translation history even when offline

You can download Google Translate from the App Store globally. The app is available in all iOS supported languages; however, you’ll need an iPhone or iPod touch iOS version 3 or later.
