## What is ListenWay?

ListenWay helps you understand someone speaking nearby. It recognizes speech and translates it into your chosen language in real time.

• Hear translations through headphones, or mute audio and read the text.
• Switch translation direction with one tap to reply.
• Read the original speech and translation phrase by phrase. The newest text stays visible.
• Start translation from Apple Watch and see the text on iPhone too.
• Choose the translation language in Settings. The spoken language is detected automatically.
• Clear the conversation history in Settings when you no longer need it.

An internet connection and your own OpenAI API key are required. OpenAI API usage is billed to your account. The microphone is used only during active translation. Your key is stored securely on your device.
