Tone Translator
Read full descriptionHide full description
Tone Translator is an accessibility-focused communication aid for moments when conversational tone is hard to read. Start recording when you want support. Tone Translator turns spoken conversation into simple cues: a short tone label, confidence context, and a neutral next-step suggestion. The goal is not to judge anyone's intent. It is to give you a calmer way to pause, understand the moment, and decide what to do next. What you can do: - Start recording manually when you want help - See concise tone cues such as calm, tense, direct, or uncertain - Get neutral suggestions, such as asking a clarifying question or taking a pause - Review local history on your device - Delete recordings and local history from privacy controls - Use readable, low-stimulation screens designed for quick scanning Privacy and control: - No always-on listening - Recording starts only when you choose - Audio and transcripts may be processed by Apple Speech Recognition and secure backend services to provide app functionality - Backend processing is designed to be ephemeral - Your in-app history is saved on your device until you delete it - Device identifiers are used for app functionality such as account/session and quota handling, not advertising tracking Important: Tone Translator provides AI-generated estimates that can be wrong. It is an assistive communication tool, not a medical device, diagnostic tool, therapy service, or emergency service. Tone cues should be treated as suggestions, not facts about another person's feelings or intent. Terms of Use: https://www.thetonetranslator.app/terms
