Swift Translate

Voice & live translator

Speak in your language and the other person hears or reads theirs.

How it works

Swift Translate translates speech in real time. Speak in your language and the other person hears or reads theirs — in both directions. It can also show live translated captions for any audio playing on your phone.

  1. Install Swift Translate and open Voice mode.
  2. Speak in your language — the translation appears (and can be read aloud) in the other language.
  3. Hand the phone over or use two-way mode for a live conversation.

Three ways to translate speech

  1. Two-way conversation

    A live interpreter between two people. Each side speaks their own language; the phone handles the middle.

  2. Live audio captions

    Translated captions over your screen for any speech — a podcast, a video, a voice chat, or the room around you.

  3. Speak and listen

    Type or speak a phrase and hear the pronunciation with text-to-speech. Useful for travel and learning.

Where it helps

  1. Travel

    Taxis, hotels, markets, directions — talk to anyone.

  2. Appointments

    Doctors, offices, and paperwork conversations in a new country.

  3. Foreign audio

    Follow videos and voice messages you can't understand.

  4. Meeting people

    A real conversation, even without a shared language.

Common questions

What is a voice translator?

A voice translator listens to speech and translates it into another language in real time. Swift Translate includes a two-way voice interpreter: you speak in your language, the other person hears or reads theirs, and their reply is translated back.

Can it translate a live conversation?

Yes — two-way conversation mode translates both sides of a spoken conversation, with text on screen and spoken playback using text-to-speech.

Can it translate audio from another app?

Yes. The live audio caption mode can listen to speech — from the microphone or from another app, such as a podcast or video — and show translated captions over your screen in real time.

How is this different from the screen translator?

The screen translator reads text; the voice translator listens to speech. Swift Translate includes both, in one app, in 100+ languages.
