Language shouldn't be a wall between you and the world. Every moment you can't speak up is a connection missed. SayVox carries your voice across languages — speak, and be understood. —— Conversation Mode — Face to Face, Naturally Press record and speak your language. SayVox recognizes, translates, and reads it aloud to the other person — instantly. They reply, and it's translated right back. You speak English, they speak Japanese, but you're having a real conversation. No typing, no waiting. It's like having an invisible interpreter by your side. Asking for directions, ordering at a restaurant, chatting with friends abroad — just speak. —— Lecture Mode — Understand Every Word Turn on Lecture Mode and let SayVox listen to the foreign language around you. Speeches, classes, news, broadcasts — translations appear line by line on your screen, like subtitles. Put on your headphones and the translated audio goes straight to your ears while the phone's microphone keeps capturing the live sound. Just focus on understanding — SayVox handles the rest. —— 6 AI Translation Engines SayVox integrates six world-class AI translation engines, unlocked progressively with your subscription: Qwen — Specialized in CJK languages, outstanding Asian language performance Gemini — Google's latest large language model GPT-4.1 — OpenAI's flagship translation engine DeepSeek V3 — High-performance deep reasoning engine Gemini Flash — Lightning-fast, millisecond-level translation Claude Haiku — Anthropic's precise semantic understanding Smart Routing automatically selects the best engine based on your language pair, text length, and engine load. No manual switching needed — SayVox makes the best choice for you. —— Apple Translation Built-in — Free, Offline, Instant Even without internet, Apple's built-in translation works instantly. It doesn't use your subscription quota, doesn't need a connection, and doesn't upload any data. Your most reliable translation backup, always ready. —— Picture-in-Picture Translation (PiP) Switch to another app without interruption. PiP mode presents translation results in a floating window — translate while checking maps, browsing information, or messaging. Effortless multitasking. —— Conversation History Every conversation is saved automatically. Review your translations anytime, with export support for meeting notes or travel journals. —— Haptic Feedback Recording start, translation complete, language switch — SayVox uses 6 carefully designed haptic patterns so you can feel the app's status without looking at the screen. —— Supported Languages 繁體中文, English, 한국어, 日本語, 简体中文 —— Subscription Plans Free 10 minutes of daily translation 2 AI engines (Qwen + Google) Unlimited Apple Translation Full Conversation & Lecture modes Pro — $6.99/month 50 minutes of daily translation 3 AI engines Picture-in-Picture translation (PiP) Conversation history export Premium — $19.99/month 180 minutes of daily translation All 5 AI engines unlocked Smart Routing Max — $99.99/month Unlimited translation (fair use policy) All 6 AI engines including Claude Haiku Every feature fully unlocked —— Privacy First Your voice belongs to you alone. SayVox uses Apple's on-device speech recognition — your audio never leaves the device. AI translation only sends the recognized text, never the original voice. —— AI translation results are for reference only and may not be perfectly accurate. Subscriptions are charged to your Apple ID account. Subscriptions automatically renew unless auto-renewal is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
