## What is FlyingText / Voice Translator?

Break the language barrier at your counter — instantly.

FlyingText is a voice translation app built for face-to-face service. Staff (on iPhone) and customers (on iPad) speak in their own language and see each
other's words translated in real time. Just connect the two devices directly over Bluetooth and you're ready to go.

■ Great for
• Inbound service at duty-free shops, drugstores and electronics stores
• Hotel front desks and tourist information
• Restaurants: taking orders and checking allergies
• Apparel and souvenir shops, and more

■ Features

○ Direct Bluetooth connection
The staff iPhone and customer iPad connect directly over Bluetooth — no complicated network setup, and you can start right away.

○ Just speak — translated on the spot
When a customer speaks in their language, the translation appears on the staff's screen, and vice versa. Smooth, two-way conversation.

○ 20 languages
English, Chinese (Simplified/Traditional), Korean, French, Spanish, German, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Russian, Turkish, Arabic, Hindi,
Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian and Japanese — 20 languages across 6 continents.

○ On-device translation
Translation uses Apple's Translation framework. Once language packs are downloaded, translation runs on your device, and translation results are never sent
to our servers. (Speech recognition may require an internet connection depending on the language and device.)

○ Your waiting iPad doubles as in-store signage (new in 1.1.0)
While no one is at the counter, the iPad's waiting screen draws attention. In 1.1.0, alongside the flag slideshow you can now loop a video of your own —
just pick one from Photos or Files in Settings. Run your product or campaign footage, and when a customer taps the screen they go straight to language
selection. One device handles both attracting and serving customers.

○ Welcome customers in their own language
Customers simply pick their language from a flag. Greet visitors from around the world in their native tongue.

○ Never miss a customer
When a customer connects, the staff device is notified right away.

■ How to use
1. Install on a staff iPhone and a customer iPad
2. Staff selects a language (Japanese/English) and waits
3. The customer picks a language from a flag and connects
4. Just talk — your words are translated on the spot

■ Notes
• Translation requires downloading language data (an internet connection is recommended for first-time setup).
• Devices communicate over Bluetooth and are intended for use at close range (a few meters).
• Videos used on the waiting screen are stored on your device and are never uploaded. Please keep an eye on available storage.
• Requires iOS 18.6 or later.

Go beyond the language barrier and deliver outstanding hospitality. Try FlyingText today.
