About

Rakkan

Read full description

Rakkan is a chat app for couples who don't share a first language. You type in your language, your partner reads it in theirs, and it actually sounds like you. Not a robotic word swap. Rakkan learns the context of your relationship, your nicknames, the way you talk to each other, the people and places you mention, and it keeps that context in every message. Every message shows you how it reads back in your own language, so you always know exactly what your partner sees. And when a phrase would land wrong in their language, Rakkan warns you before you send, or simply asks which meaning you meant. What you can do: - Chat in real time, each of you in your own language - See the "reads back as" check on every message - Video call with live translated captions, so you can talk face to face even when the words don't match - Send voice and video messages that arrive with a translated transcript - Put one phone on the table between you and let it interpret out loud when you are finally together - Schedule a good morning for their sunrise, not yours - Share photos, albums, GIFs and stickers made from your own photos - Hear their messages read aloud in a voice that sounds like them - React, reply, edit, star and search your whole history - Rakkan quietly remembers the things that matter, birthdays, anniversaries, names, so you don't have to - Make the app yours with themes, wallpapers and your own bubble style - At the end of the year, see your story: every message, call and photo, counted Built for long-distance and cross-language couples who are tired of copy-pasting into a translator and losing the meaning every time. Plans and prices are shown in the app. Languages The app itself speaks 23 languages, including English, Thai, Khmer, Lao, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Hindi, Korean, Japanese, French, German, Italian and Slovak, and it translates between almost any language pair automatically. Private by design Rakkan is made for two people. Conversations are private, between adults who have accepted each other's request. You must be 18 or older to use it.
