HOW SURE ARE WE
Small app: combines its grossing ranks with ratings growth (28 new ratings a month on average since launch). Tested on 418 apps with verified revenue: typically off by about 2.6 times, so the range is wide. Countries we don't track (and Google Play in China, which doesn't exist) aren't included, and neither are ads or web payments. Gross revenue before store fees.

★★★★★ Excellent, easy to use, and super helpful.
★★★★★ Perfect for translations!! You can take a photo or upload one and it translates the photo/menu for you! It also works for ingredient translations and receipts! Love this app so much since it helped me double check…

Refund

This app is terrible. I wish I would’ve NEVER purchased it. I have scanned several items and it has not translated one. Do not waste your money. If I could return it, I definitely would.

★★★★★Oct 10, 2026
Helped me immensely.

Kuli Kuli is a life saver for those small moments when you’re overseas in a foreign country with no idea how to speak the language. The only thing that would make it better is if there was a way to see the pronunciation under the result of what you’re translating.

★★★★★Oct 9, 2026
Great app

Works very well, something’s could be changed to make it better. But I really like this app over Google Translate

★★★★★Sep 23, 2026
New downloaded promotion

I just downloaded for my upcoming trip and when I signed up to make an account it gave me a lifetime usage for $30 promotion and I signed up for it but charged me the full price .

★★★★★Sep 22, 2026
Can you add Filipino?

I would like to see Filipino on my app?

★★★★★Aug 22, 2026
Worth the $30

Now that they added conversations, this is a one stop shop. I love the general info that pops up and even more cool when taking picture of a menu and then you select something on the menu, it will bring up general info about the dish including allergy, spice level and calories using a simple icon system. This is a huge help when trying to figure out what stuff is and what’s in the dish. Can’t wait to give this a go in the real world when I go to Japan soon.

What's new in 2.0.2

TRAVEL LOG #12 I caught a red leaf at the temple gate. When I was little, leaves were bigger than my hand. Now my hand is bigger than the leaves. Added support for iPhone Duo. Fixed several issues with voice translation.

Released Sep 19, 2023. Current version shipped Oct 23, 2026.

Store description

Kuli Kuli is the context-aware voice, text, and camera translator built for real-world travel. Have natural, two-way conversations, enter text, or use your camera to understand menus, signs, products, receipts, handwritten notes, cultural sites, and more. Go beyond a literal translation. Kuli Kuli adds useful context—dish references, potential allergens, product ingredients, usage details, and cultural explanations—so you can decide what to say, order, buy, or explore. KEY FEATURES • Two-Way Voice Conversations — Speak naturally and keep conversations moving when ordering food, shopping, asking for directions, or connecting with locals. • Text Translation — Enter text for a quick translation whenever you need to understand something or find the right words to reply. • Context-Aware Camera Translation — Take a photo or choose one from your library to translate printed or handwritten text and get useful context for what you’re seeing. • Food & Menus — Understand unfamiliar dishes and daily specials, view helpful dish references, and identify potential allergens and ingredients before ordering. • Shopping & Everyday Essentials — Decode skincare and beauty labels, snacks, pharmacy labels, tickets, receipts, and more. • Culture & Discovery — Uncover the meaning behind omikuji fortune slips, artwork, landmarks, and local curiosities—not just the words. Kuli Kuli supports 120+ languages. Feature availability varies by language. From restaurants and markets to pharmacies and souvenir shops, Kuli Kuli helps you spend less time decoding and more time exploring.
