The honest translator. No account. No tracking. No surprise charges. Cipher translates right on your iPhone — your words stay on your device, not on someone's server. Most translator apps trap you: a paywall the second you open them, a pre-checked $6.99/week plan, a "free trial" toggle that's off by default, and legal pages that don't even load. Cipher is the opposite. WHAT YOU GET, FREE • Unlimited on-device text translation — works on a plane, abroad, with no signal • Voice conversation mode — speak, and Cipher transcribes and translates on-device • Camera translation — point at a menu or sign and read it in your language, on-device • The translator keyboard — translate as you type in any app, free every day up to a generous limit, with a reliable backspace that never eats your message • No ads. Ever. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Text, voice and camera run on your phone using Apple's on-device engine — nothing uploaded • No account, no sign-up, no email, no tracking, no analytics SDKs • We can't read those translations because we never receive them • Two opt-in online features — the keyboard's Cloud Translate and the "Translate with Cipher" share action — send only the text you choose to a translation service so it comes back translated, then forget it. The keyboard's is off until you enable it. Everything else stays on your phone. HONEST PRICING • Cipher Pro: $3.99/month, $27.99/year (7-day free trial), or pay once $67.99 — yours forever • No weekly plan. No pre-checked options. No dark patterns. • Before any charge, you see exactly what you'll pay and when. Cancel in two taps. PRO UNLOCKS • Unlimited keyboard translate — type in any app with no daily limit • Our highest-quality cloud model for the keyboard — for nuance and tone • Offline language packs — download once, translate with no connection Built by the team behind Metadata Cleaner — privacy is the whole point, not a marketing line.
