YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU. ALWAYS.
No cloud. No server. No data transmission. Tolki translates entirely on your iPhone: speech recognition, translation, text-to-speech, camera translation, Learn Mode, and Chat. Internet is only needed once to download language packs and optional voices. After that, Tolki works offline.
On a plane, abroad without roaming, in a restaurant with no signal, or in private situations: Tolki stays on your device.
SEVEN MODES. ONE APP.
— Manual — Full control. You decide when Tolki listens and translates.
— Table Mode — Place your iPhone down. Just start talking. Tolki automatically detects who is speaking which language. With AirPods or hearing aids, hear your translation privately in your ear.
— Listen Mode — Passive listening with live subtitles. Ideal for presentations, TV, or nearby conversations.
— Camera — Translate menus, signs, labels, package inserts, and documents. No photo is uploaded.
— Text Input — Type, paste, or share from any app. Tolki translates directly on device.
— Learn — Your personal language trainer. Save important phrases, practice pronunciation with real-time feedback, and prepare trips with phrase packs.
— Chat — Connect two iPhones locally. Each person speaks into their own device, and the chat appears in their own language. No account, no cloud.
YOUR VOICE NEVER LEAVES YOUR IPHONE.
Tolki is built for privacy: no conversation servers, no accounts, no speech uploads. Your speech, text, camera content, favorites, and learning data stay locally on your device.
TRANSLATE AND LEARN.
Tolki shows spoken sentences as original and translation. So you do not just understand the other person, you also pick up new words and phrases along the way.
— 19 translation languages: German, English, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Polish, Russian, Vietnamese, Hindi, Danish, Swedish, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian Bokmål, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Chinese
— 13 natural offline voices plus Apple voice fallback
— Learn phrase packs for all 19 target languages
— Supports AirPods, Beats, MFi, and ASHA hearing aids
COMPATIBILITY
Requires iPhone with iOS 26 (iPhone 12 or later). For the best experience, we recommend iPhone 15 Pro or later: faster speech recognition and better microphones.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Important stability and bug fixes:
• Fixed: Onboarding no longer gets stuck on voice installation. If a voice can't finish downloading, you can now continue with the Apple voice or retry the download.
• Fixed: App no longer crashes when Tolki is launched offline for the very first time. On first launch, a one-time internet connection is requested — after that, everything works permanently offline.
• Fixed: "Language pack required" message for Swedish and Danish no longer appears — these languages work without a separate Apple language pack.
• Fixed: Crash when starting a translation while a voice was still downloading.
