Psybeam: Live Translator

Hand your phone to anyone and just talk — they never touch the screen.

Hold your button and speak; Psybeam says it out loud in their language. Hold their button while they answer, and you hear them in yours. The translation always faces whoever it's for, so the person across from you understands instantly — no app for them, no typing, no learning the UI.

Real-time voice-to-voice, built for travel. Order food, ask directions, sort out a hostel, talk to a pharmacist or a taxi driver — face to face, in seconds.

WHY PSYBEAM — No account, no sign-up. It opens straight to talking; sign in with Apple later only if you want to sync. — No subscription, no trial trap. Pay only for the minutes you actually talk. Start with free minutes, then buy a pack when you need more — never a recurring charge. — Your conversation stays on your device.

HOW IT WORKS — Two thumb buttons: your language and theirs. Hold to speak, release to send. — Natural speech-to-speech that follows the speaker's own voice. — 20+ languages, spoken aloud both ways. — Cross a border? Psybeam auto-suggests the local language from your location. — One phone, one operator — the other person just listens, then speaks when it's their turn.

BUILT FOR Travelers, markets, hotel and hostel desks, taxis, pharmacies, asking a local for help — any moment you and someone else don't share a language.

iPhone, iOS 18 and later. Open it, hold a button, and have your first cross-language conversation in seconds.
