My Adjustment time needed
I just need some hands on time to get use to the procedure on how to use the Ambassador. When to click and when not to. I need the Adjustment time. And the time delay takes some getting use to. I am taking a trip to Germany and Switzerland this summer and I want to put this to good use. The ear piece is a little tight on my ear but I am going to try to get it to loosen up. If I could make any suggestions on improvements it might be to increase the reception distance. With Covid it’s hard to get 2 meters way. That’s kinda close. Otherwise it’s great.Sir Cricket

Wow...please buy one for anyone you know who has language barrier issues.WesleyL12334
The translator is much better
I was finally able to have a long conversation with my Brazilian wife. There were two thing that were a problem. First it said Brazilian Portuguese but my wife who is Brazilian said it’s still Portugal Portuguese. The second was unable to move to the conversation mode to continues mode. Nothing in the upper right corner in the app when in full conversation with two people. Others that this was so much improved from the beginning. 😀VegasNow
Ups and downs
As an investor for Waverly Labs I’ve had high hopes for this product for the last few years. Based on my industry and the vast number of folks I speak with who speak other languages I was excited to be able to get rid of the standard “language lines” and cut the middle man out. Unfortunately the Ambassador is not there yet. When conversing with another person while each are using an earpiece translation is a “B” as long as each person speaks clearly, slowly, and louder than the standard conversational tone of voice. When in “listen” mode however, the translation is abysmally poor. Listening to a conversation where others are speaking another language has resulted in some of the most comical sentences I have ever heard. We’ve all had a good laugh around the office as we have played with then”listen” setting.
I know Waverly was anxious to get this to market and Covid certainly has not helped, but as an investor I would have much preferred another 6 months of R&D and improvements before this hit the shelves. With any hope some future software updates will cure the ailments of the Ambassador and it will not be a hardware issue.rollincode3
Developer Response
Thank you for your review. Covid indeed impacted our planning but Ambassador was released as soon as we deemed it ready. At Waverly Labs we not only value our user feedback, we use it to iterate and bring our products to their full potential. We already have many refinements on our roadmap which will further improve your future experience of Ambassador, and those software updates will be released soon.Ambassador
So far, so good!!!elvis197
Awesomeness!!
Received my Ambassador two days ago, I’ve done a couple practice runs with the lecture mode, and I must say it will open any language barrier one may encounter.openair991
Delivers as expected
It takes a little getting used to the rate at which you should talk, but it translates accurately and close to real time.Crazy cash cow
Amazing Technology!
As one of the first IndieGoGo backers of this and its predecessor, Pilot, I have been looking forward to using these for my own personal life and for job use, be it as being a cop or normal everyday interactions.
After having used this for a little upon getting it, it had worked like a charm for me with no issues and in testing it with various people who speak Spanish, German, and M. Chinese, it hasn’t failed me and I hope it never does. It is def. a step up from Pilot and I really have enjoyed them so far. Time will tell more about its uses in the future but I am looking forward to it! Thanks to the team behind all of this and the tireless efforts of those who make them! 1 of the first 1,000! :)Lightning Wu
A long time coming but worth the wait
Just arrived and so far so good! Took a bit to pair the earpieces, but they’re working now. Can’t wait to try them out.:-3 :-3 :-3
