Your words in English, large, and read aloud in English.Xin chào, rất vui được gặp bạn.
Their words in Vietnamese, with the English underneath.What to expect
A short wait after each person pauses
Choose Patient for slower speakers, Quick for brisk chat. Captions show the words as they are spoken.
Mistakes happen
Names, places, dialect and family terms can come out wrong. If something looks odd, say it another way.
A quiet room helps
Television and other voices nearby make it harder to hear who is speaking.
Not for medical, legal or official matters
For those, use a professional interpreter.
Questions
Does the English speaker need the app or an account?
No. They share your phone. Nothing to install, nothing to sign in to.
Can we use earphones?
Yes. Many people wear one earphone each, or use the phone speaker on the table.
Is the conversation kept?
Not unless you choose. Saving is off by default. If you switch it on, the conversation is kept in your account until you delete it.
Can I use it at the doctor or for official papers?
No. For medical, legal or official matters, use a professional interpreter.
What does it cost?
Three minutes a day are free. Plans start at $5.99 a month for 3 hours. A Visit Pass is $9.99 for 10 hours over 14 days and never renews.
