Hear - Live Voice Translation

Live captions & translation

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Follow lectures, meetings, and web media with live translated captions and speech. Bring your own Gemini API key. Available in English and Korean. Hear turns spoken audio into live translated captions and speech. Follow lectures, meetings, conversations, and supported web media while reading the original and translation together or listening through earphones. A Google Gemini API key and an internet connection are required for Gemini interpretation. Google may charge separately for API usage. Gemini use is for adults aged 18 and over. FEATURES • Live captions: see the original speech and translation as the session continues. • Spoken interpretation: listen to translated speech and adjust its volume and output. • Microphone input: interpret nearby speech using your iPhone, a supported connected microphone such as AirPods, or a paired Apple Watch. • Hear browser: open web pages and interpret supported web media. Playback and audio access depend on the site and its permissions. • Flexible layouts: switch between caption layouts for conversations, lectures, and larger screens. • Apple Watch: view captions and use supported microphone and audio output options with your paired iPhone. • Interpretation context: provide the topic, specialist terms, or speaker names. • Target languages: choose English, Korean, Japanese, Spanish, and more from the in-app list. • English and Korean interface: Hear follows your app language. On first use, a supported device language is selected for interpretation; change it in Settings at any time. BRING YOUR OWN GEMINI API KEY Create your own key in Google AI Studio, then paste it into Hear Settings. No Hear account is needed. A Google account is required to create a Gemini key. Google's API pricing and free-tier limits depend on your account and its policies. PRIVACY Audio is sent directly from your device to Google for Gemini interpretation. We do not operate an interpretation server. Your key is stored in the device Keychain. Hear does not save audio recording files or keep diagnostic audio and caption exports. There are no ads. Firebase crash reports and usage statistics can include installation/device identifiers. Your audio, captions, and API key are not collected in the developer's analytics. See the privacy policy for collection and Google's processing practices. PLEASE NOTE Interpretation is generated by AI and may contain errors or delays. Verify important information against the original. Not every website permits media access or audio capture. Use earphones to reduce feedback from the translated speech into the microphone.
