Background Noise
I work with a crew that speaks Mandarin and Cantonese. The background noise from jackhammers usually kills translation apps. This one cut through the chaos, and just for that, it's better than any other app I tried.
Life Saver
I fell ill in rural Germany, and the hospital staff spoke no English. I opened the app, set it to auto, and let it run. It was nothing too serious, but I don't know what I would have done without this live translator.
Live Translations
My Portuguese friend said live translations were a gimmick. I sat us at a loud café, started the app, and asked her in English how her job interview went. The app played her question in perfect Portuguese, and her jaw dropped.
Auto Detection
My grandmother speaks only Italian; my cousin speaks only Spanish. We sat at the same table for the first time in years. I placed my phone between them. The app auto-detected each language and translated in real time.
Tiny Bandwidth
I traveled through rural Vietnam for a week, and my data plan was tiny. Well, the app barely sipped bandwidth. I translated market haggles, bus schedules, and medical questions without worrying about overage fees.
