Tradio puts two people on opposite sides of one phone
Tradio describes an iPhone app for face-to-face translation: each person speaks on their side of a shared phone, and the translation appears on the other side.

- Two people having an in-person conversation across languages
- Worth noticing
- The page says changed numbers are flagged, so a spoken “€13” cannot quietly become “€30” in translation.
Field notes
The described interface turns one phone into two reading surfaces: the upper half faces the other speaker, and a pause sign indicates when that side is waiting. The page says language resources download on first opening; it also notes that some selected languages need an optional advanced model and that a few are text-only. The privacy policy, terms and support email are linked from the site.
