Swift Translate is an Android app that translates anything on your screen — chats, subtitles, photos, and games — with a floating bubble, without switching apps. It is built by YDZ Labs and has been helping people talk across languages since 2020.
Swift Translate started with a simple observation: the hard part of translation was never the translating — it was the copy, switch apps, paste, switch back dance you had to do a hundred times per conversation. So we put the translator on top of everything else, in a little bubble you drag around.
Ten million downloads later, that bubble translates chats in Lagos, K-dramas in São Paulo, gacha games in Berlin, and customer messages for small businesses everywhere.
These figures come from our own anonymized product analytics and the public Google Play listing. Journalists and researchers: you're welcome to cite them with a link back.
The best translator is the one you forget is running.
Your conversations are translated, not collected.
Swift Translate runs on flagship phones and $80 phones alike — most of the world chats on the latter.
