Works on screenshots

I screenshot Hebrew posts from my neighborhood Facebook group and translate them straight from the photo.

School meetings without the stress

Used Listen at my daughter's school meeting and followed what the teacher was saying for the first time. Total game changer for me as a parent.

Great app

Found this app very useful as I learned to speak Hebrew as a local. And quite fun too, with built in gamification. Heads and tails above the other translation apps.

Response from developer

Thank you! Speaking Hebrew like a local is exactly what we built baba for. Glad the games make practice fun too. Isaac, founder

Best hebrew app i've used

Most translators give you stiff, formal Hebrew nobody actually speaks. Baba gets slang and everyday phrasing right, and the voice features make it easy to actually learn how things sound. Super clean app too. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to speak like a local.

Response from developer

Thank you! Stiff textbook Hebrew is the problem we set out to fix, so this means a lot. Keep using the voice features and you'll sound like you've lived here for years. Isaac, founder

Helped me form real connections half a world away

As the mom of a Lone Soldier, Baba has been my lifeline for the last 6 months helping me connect with my son’s mom/parent WhatsApp group from 12,000 km away. Other online translators were unreliable often giving me translations that made no sense (Example: the boys are all dating!) which was incredibly frustrating. I discovered Baba and found clarity and comprehension. It’s rapid so I could quickly process 50 texts during the Masa Kumpta to locate the parent’s group in a large park and before the event, could CORRECTLY translate the PDF invitation. I cannot overstate how important this app has been to helping me form new friendships across the world. THANK YOU for creating it.
