No SIM card yet, no Wi-Fi, no problem. TrailSpeak is a travel translator and phrasebook built to work with airplane mode ON — every phrase, every word, and every pronunciation is stored on your iPhone before you board. Big translator apps quietly assume you have a connection, which is exactly what you don't have at baggage claim, on the metro, or in a mountain village. TrailSpeak takes the opposite bet: 260 hand-picked travel phrases in 10 languages, an 850-word offline dictionary, offline audio pronunciation, and free-form translation that runs entirely on your iPhone — no server involved. WHAT YOU GET • 260 real travel phrases per language — ask for the bill, find your platform, explain an allergy, or haggle at the market without pointing and hoping • Tap-to-speak audio: offline text-to-speech pronounces every phrase out loud, with adjustable speed for noisy streets and fast talkers • Romanization for Japanese, Korean, Chinese, and Thai — read "arigatou gozaimasu" without knowing a single character • Free-form translation on iOS 18: type anything and get it translated by Apple's on-device engine, private, even in airplane mode once the language pack is downloaded • Photo word lookup: snap a photo of English text and tap any recognized word to see its translation in your travel language • Favorites: star the phrases you'll need at breakfast, and they're one tap away at the ticket counter 10 languages: Spanish, French, Japanese, German, Italian, Portuguese, Vietnamese, Korean, Chinese, and Thai — organized into Greetings, Directions, Transport, Food & Drinks, Hotel, Shopping, Emergency, and Numbers & Time. PERFECT FOR • Travelers landing without a data plan or dreading roaming charges • Backpackers heading through Asia where Wi-Fi is a rumor and menus have no photos • Cruise and tour passengers who get 40 minutes in port and zero bars of signal • Anyone who wants three survival phrases ready before the taxi door opens PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Nothing you type, photograph, or star ever leaves your iPhone. Translation runs on-device, the dictionary is on-device, and there is no account, no tracking, and no cloud. FULL ACCESS TrailSpeak Pro unlocks all 10 languages: • TrailSpeak Pro Weekly — week, auto-renewing subscription • TrailSpeak Pro Yearly — year, auto-renewing subscription • Lifetime — one-time purchase, everything forever Subscriptions renew automatically at the same price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings. Lifetime is a one-time purchase and does not renew. Download TrailSpeak before you fly — it's the translator that keeps working after the plane door closes.

Loro translates offline what you hear and what you see. Speak in your language and your iPhone says it in the other. FIVE WAYS TO TRANSLATE - Voice: tap, speak and hear the translation. It translates automatically when you stop talking - Text: type or dictate a sentence and hear it in the other language - Conversation: the screen splits in two, one half for each person, to talk face to face - Camera: take a photo of a sign, a menu or a label, or pick one from your library, and read the translated text. Ask whatever you need to know (with Apple Intelligence) and get an answer in your own language - Headphones: you hear the translation in your headphones and the other person hears it through the speaker. The screen tells them when to talk OFFLINE Each language downloads once, over the internet. From then on, speech recognition and translation run locally on your iPhone, without using data. Made for when you have no internet or a weak signal: when you travel, on the plane, on the subway. 12 LANGUAGES English, Spanish, Italian, German, French, Portuguese (Brazil and Portugal), Japanese, Korean, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional) and Hindi. ASK ABOUT THE PHOTO On iPhones with Apple Intelligence you can ask about the photo you just took: what dish it is, what the label says. The answer comes from the iPhone's own AI, and it can be wrong. PRIVATE What you say, type or photograph is processed on your iPhone, with Apple's frameworks. No account, no ads. Requires Loro Pro, with a 3-day free trial for new subscribers.
