On-device translation
Speechy uses Apple's Translation framework, which runs on device after the language pack is installed. Your transcript doesn't leave the device for translation.
Pick a target language
From the Translate chip on a note, choose any of the ten supported target languages. A dot next to each language tells you whether its language pack is already installed or needs a one-time download.
Offline packs
Under Settings → Translation you can pre-download packs for the languages you use. Once installed, subsequent translations happen instantly and work in Airplane Mode.
