Tried following the setup instructions for 2 hours and could not get it to work. The troubleshooting page simply said reread the instructions more carefully

This is the best speech translator ever! It’s very fast and has a customizable layout, unlike Chrome Live Caption. So far, you have helped me understand and communicate with many people for over a year. Thank you for your work!
