Questions about Voice Translate
What people ask before they try it.
Which languages work with voice?
Voice needs speech recognition, translation and a voice for each language on your iPhone. The app lists the languages your device supports when you pick them.
What do I need to use Voice Translate?
An iPhone with iOS 26 or later and the TapTranslate app. Natural voice needs a Pro subscription and an internet connection.
Is my voice recorded?
Standard voice is processed on your iPhone. Natural voice streams audio to Google's Gemini service to translate it; Google does not use it to improve its products and keeps it only for a limited time to detect abuse.
