What are the best language learning apps for Android?

Pros

Pro
Open ended

Instead of requesting a direct translation, users can ask anything language related. While the focus is on translation, social engagement and less direct questions (such as synonyms) are encouraged.

Pro
Get a translation from a photo or audio clip

Whether it's a menu, a street sign, letter, or lecturer, just take a picture and someone will personally translate it.

Cons

Con
Not much support for uncommon languages

Because of the social nature of this app, languages with the most speakers will yield the most responses. Languages that are less widely spoken will take longer to be answered.
