When it is time to speak, hold the microphone to view both the original words and the translation, then play your message aloud. With PandaLingo you can: • Understand visible station signs and everyday notices, with suggested next steps • Scan Chinese app screenshots and tap numbered labels to understand important buttons, fields, and messages • Recognize well-known landmarks through concise history and culture cards • Explain payment messages and possible options—not process or guarantee a payment • Scan Chinese menus for dish names, common ingredient cues and prices • Review an estimated order total and show Chinese dish names, quantities and dietary notes to staff • Hold to speak for two-way voice communication • Use ready-to-say cards for dietary needs, allergies, payments, and help • Revisit saved scans during your trip • Set dietary preferences for more relevant guidance PandaLingo supports travel communication only. Results can be affected by image quality, network conditions, accents, and context. Always confirm important medical, allergy, payment, transport, or safety information with staff.
