ListenARApp

Live speech & camera to Arabic

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

RU, UK, TH, TR, English & Hebrew live To Arabic. Camera & Vision for menus. On-device first—no ListenAR server. Apple Watch companion.. ListenAR helps you understand and speak Arabic when the other language is Russian, Ukrainian, Thai, Turkish, English, or Hebrew. It is built for real moments—listening in a conversation, reading a menu, or checking a message—not for translating one hundred languages you will never use.
