Hear it in your language, live. Livdub dubs videos, podcasts, lectures, and streams that you watch on your iPhone. It can also listen to the voices around you, and dub them into 78 languages as they happen. Not delayed captions. Spoken audio in your language, in near real time. You bring your own Gemini API key from AI Studio (https://aistudio.google.com/). Livdub never stores your key, and live audio does not go through our servers. HOW IT WORKS 1. Paste your Gemini key in Settings. 2. Pick a language. 3. Select the mode: Dub this phone (audio playing on the iPhone) or Around you (the room, a talk, a taxi ride). 4. Start. Hear the dubbed audio while the original keeps going. Mix original volume if you want both. 78 LANGUAGES Afrikaans, Akan, Albanian, Amharic, Arabic, Armenian, Azerbaijani, Basque, Belarusian, Bengali, Bulgarian, Burmese, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Filipino, Finnish, French, Galician, Georgian, German, Greek, Gujarati, Hausa, Hebrew, Hindi, Hungarian, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Javanese, Kannada, Kazakh, Khmer, Kinyarwanda, Korean, Lao, Latvian, Lithuanian, Macedonian, Malay, Malayalam, Marathi, Mongolian, Nepali, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Punjabi, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Sindhi, Sinhala, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Sundanese, Swahili, Swedish, Tamil, Telugu, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, Urdu, Uzbek, Vietnamese, and Zulu. SUBTITLES ON IPHONE (PLUS) Live subtitles are a Plus feature. On iPhone they appear inside the Livdub app, not over the video panels. Open Livdub to read along while video is playing in PiP mode.
