About Swift Translate

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.

The story

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.

What we believe

Translation should be invisible. The best translator is the one you forget is running.

Privacy first. Your conversations are translated, not collected.

Every phone deserves it. Swift Translate runs on flagship phones and $80 phones alike — most of the world chats on the latter.
