Features & Capabilities

Ekto helps you understand in-person conversations, meetings, lectures, live events with continuous real-time translated captions.

Tap once to see speech as text in the original language or translated into your language. Works from across the table and the back of the room. It automatically detects up to 39 languages.

LIVE TRANSLATION FOR LECTURES, MEETINGS & CONVERSATIONS Ekto is also a full live translator. Follow lectures, meetings, and sermons in a foreign language. Understanding the speaker in the moment, means getting ahead in class abroad or advancing your career in a non-english conference. It can also make your overseas trips or expat life easier before listening skills become fluent.

SUBTITLES FOR LIVE TV & LIVESTREAMS Catch every word of the news, the game, and your favorite shows. Set your phone near the TV or monitor and read the dialogue as it's spoken.

LIVE CAPTIONS FOR HEARING LOSS Reliable captions in noisy rooms, group conversations, and at a distance, alongside hearing aids or without them. Large, readable text. Simple enough for less-technical family members to use every day.

BROADCAST CAPTIONS TO A ROOM (LIVE LINK) With Live Link, a speaker, teacher, or pastor shares a web link and up to 100 people read live captions on their own phones, each in their own language.

User Reviews

- app does not keep the device wake, even in active use (device will go sleep after a few minutes) - sometime the translation does not break the lines so it display 1 very long line in 1 language, blocking the view of the other language - sometime the translation stops ( probably because of sleep), and returning to the app does not get it started again. Have to fully exit and then reopen the translation to continue The app picks up the sounds very well, so hopefully the developer will fix the above critical usability issues, if fixed, will earn 5 stars and yearly subscription.
