UniTrans is a high-accuracy, real-time AI interpreter for anyone who works across languages — international meetings, online lectures, business calls, or face-to-face conversations. It transcribes as you speak and translates sentence by sentence, with the original and the translation aligned line by line. FOUR WAYS TO INTERPRET · Live Interpreting — Open it and start recording. Your speech is transcribed and translated as you talk, with timestamps on every line and optional speaker separation. Pause and resume anytime. · Device Audio — Translate the sound playing on your device in one tap: online classes, video calls and videos, translated while you watch. · Conversation Mode — Put the phone between the two of you, hold the button for your language and speak, then release to see both sides in both languages. · AI Interview Practice — Add your resume and the role you are preparing for, then rehearse out loud. UniTrans recognizes the question and offers talking points in real time, so you can practice before the day that counts. FLOATING SUBTITLES Switch to another app and your bilingual subtitles keep floating on top in Picture in Picture. Live status also appears on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. YOUR OWN KNOWLEDGE BASE Import the terminology and documents from your field (txt, md, pdf and more). Select several knowledge bases at once and the AI searches across all of them, so the results understand your domain. REVIEW, PLAY BACK AND EXPORT Every session is saved automatically. Star lines, add notes, organize sessions into folders and search them later. Recordings are kept on your device and play back as one continuous timeline, and you can export the transcript and the audio together as a single archive — with timestamps, speakers and translations included or left out, as you prefer. SYNC ACROSS DEVICES Your transcripts sync to your account, so switching devices never loses your records. Recordings stay on the device that made them. TWELVE LANGUAGES Interpret between English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, Italian and Hindi — for meetings, study, business and travel. MEMBERSHIP Membership includes 100 minutes of live interpreting every day, resetting daily without rolling over. One-time minute packs are also available and never expire. An internet connection and an account are required. Download UniTrans and let language stop being a barrier. 隐私政策 Privacy Policy: https://uniflowtrans.com/privacy 服务条款 Terms of Use (EULA): https://uniflowtrans.com/terms
