BelliedMonkey Translator vs Margin

BelliedMonkey Translator puts two languages on screen wherever you read, watch or talk — and the sentences you actually read come back as review cards. LIVE SUBTITLES (APP) Bilingual subtitles for whatever your device is playing. On Mac, the app listens to system audio and shows a floating subtitle bar that stays on top of any app, even full-screen video (macOS 26 or later). On iPhone, play a video or podcast out loud in any app, and a picture-in-picture window scrolls the original and the translation, sentence by sentence. Recognition happens on the device; Live Subtitles need iOS 26 / macOS 26. CONVERSATION · LIVE INTERPRETER (APP) Talk across a language gap. Both sides speak freely; each sentence is transcribed, translated and can be read aloud. Speech is recognised on the device, so the audio never leaves it. Requires iOS 26 / macOS 26. SYSTEM TRANSLATION (IPHONE) Select text in any app and tap Translate — BelliedMonkey answers with the engine you configured, in a small sheet, without leaving the app. Choose BelliedMonkey once in Settings › Apps › Translate › Default Translate App. Sentences you translate this way can go straight into your review deck. Requires iOS 18.4 or later. WEB PAGES, SIDE BY SIDE The Safari extension (also on Chrome and Firefox) keeps every paragraph's original text with the translation right below it. No switching tabs, no losing your place. VIDEO DUAL SUBTITLES YouTube, podcasts and web video get sentence-matched dual subtitles. No captions? Turn on AI transcript subtitles. DOCUMENT TRANSLATION Open a PDF, Word file or image and read it page by page, original and translation side by side. LEARN AS YOU READ Sentences you actually read can become review cards on a forgetting curve — read, listen and write practice, sentence notes and read-aloud. Optional sync lets your phone review what you read on your computer. YOUR ENGINE, YOUR CHOICE Bring your own AI service key, or any compatible endpoint. PRIVACY, SPELLED OUT Your keys and settings stay on your device. With your own key, text goes straight to the provider you chose and is not stored. Live Subtitles and on-device transcription never record audio. We send anonymous usage events (which features are used, never page content), and you can turn them off in Settings. No ads. The whole app is open source and free to download.

Your phone is full, and it's never the photos you meant to keep — it's five near-identical shots of the same moment, a screen recording from months ago, and the screenshot you took to remember something and never deleted. Margin finds all of it and shows you exactly what you'd get back before anything is touched. SEE THE SPACE BEFORE YOU FREE IT Margin groups near-identical photos into sets, picks the strongest frame in each one, and lets you review the rest at a glance — a full contact sheet per set, not one photo at a time. Screen recordings, expired screenshots (sorted by the text in them), and exact duplicate files are each their own category, so you know exactly where your storage is going. OR COMPRESS INSTEAD OF DELETE Long videos and large images over a size you choose can be re-encoded in place instead of removed — picked individually or as a batch, tracked from a compression tray. Camera, date and location metadata survive exactly as they were. NOTHING IS EVER PERMANENT Every deletion goes through your device's own Recently Deleted album — recoverable until you empty it yourself, exactly as if you'd deleted the photo in Photos. Nothing Margin suggests touches anything you've already favorited, edited, or filed into an album. RUNS ENTIRELY ON YOUR DEVICE Margin has no network code. There is no server, no account, no analytics, no third-party SDK — nothing your photos could be sent to, because there is no code path capable of sending them anywhere. Every comparison happens locally using Apple's own PhotoKit and Vision frameworks. Built for iPhone and iPad, sharing one engine with the Mac app.
