Features

No button to hold. Just talk. When the other person speaks, you see the translation in your language; when you answer, they hear it in theirs. The app works out who is speaking on its own. Ten minutes free. After that, one purchase removes the limit. No monthly or weekly charges. ■ Where it helps ・Travelling — asking directions, ordering, checking a price ・Serving customers who don't share your language, at a shop, hotel or clinic front desk ・Counters and offices, explaining symptoms or paperwork ・Sitting down with a colleague, a neighbour or family who speaks another language ■ How it differs from other interpreter apps ・No push-to-talk. Start speaking and it starts listening; the translation keeps flowing as long as the conversation does ・No handing over your phone. Split view flips the top half 180° for the other person, so you stay face to face ・No account. No sign-up, no login. Open it and use it ・Nothing leaves the device. Speech recognition and translation both run on your iPhone. Your conversations are never sent to a server ・No time limit after you buy. A long meeting won't get cut off mid-sentence ・Works offline. After the one-time language download, it works on a plane or underground ■ Pricing ・Ten minutes free, in total (it is not a daily allowance that resets) ・After that, Pro removes the limit — a single purchase, no monthly or weekly charge ・Family Sharing supported ■ Languages English and Japanese, plus Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Vietnamese, Thai, Arabic, Dutch and Turkish, in any pair. Only the languages your device's speech recognition and translation support are shown. ■ What it does ・Live captions. The translation appears while you are still speaking and firms up when the phrase ends ・Spoken translations, switchable for the other person and for you independently ・Split view, with the top half rotated 180° for the person across from you ・Speaker override. If the automatic detection gets it wrong, pin it to "Me" or "Them" ・Saved conversation history, shareable as text ・Large text mode, readable across a counter ・Microphone sensitivity adjustment ・The screen stays awake while you're interpreting ■ Being straight with you ・It struggles with jargon and long sentences. Short phrases translate far better ・Because everything runs on the device, the translation is not as strong as a large cloud model. In exchange it is cheap, fast, and private ・The microphone mutes while a translation is spoken aloud, so it goes more smoothly if the other person waits for it to finish ・Requires iOS 26 or later, iPhone 11 or later. An Apple Intelligence device is not required ■ Privacy The app collects no data. Neither your conversations nor your usage is sent anywhere. ■ Support Send questions and bug reports from the support page.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: SmartMgmt at none against Interpreter's 1. SmartMgmt also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 26.5). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
