About

Translo

Features
Read full description

Translo brings everyday translation and vocabulary learning together in one thoughtfully designed iPhone app. When you cannot understand, cannot find the words, or want to remember something useful, move directly from translation into practice. Translate in the way that fits the moment • Text translation: type or paste, detect the source language, choose a target language, then copy and share the result. • Voice translation: transcribe speech on device and translate the final transcript, with manual stop and typed input available. • Face-to-face conversation: take turns recording in two clearly separated languages without continuous listening. • Image translation: choose a photo or use the camera, receive an image with translated text overlaid, then save or share it when you choose. Translo lets you overcome language barriers anytime, anywhere, and turns every translation into a learning opportunity.
