Creole Translator

Creole Translator is a fast, accurate translation app for Haitian Creole and English — designed for real conversations, not just word lookups.

Whether you're a traveler in Haiti, a healthcare worker with Haitian Creole-speaking patients, a social worker, teacher, or someone staying connected with family, this app lets you
communicate naturally using your voice or keyboard — in both directions.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
SPEAK AND TRANSLATE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Hold the microphone button, say what you want to translate, and release. The app transcribes your speech and translates it in seconds. No typing required. Great for real-time
conversations and situations where your hands are full.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TYPE AND TRANSLATE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Prefer typing? Enter any text directly and get an instant translation. Useful when you're in a quiet environment or working from written text.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
BOTH DIRECTIONS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Switch between Haitian Creole → English and English → Haitian Creole with a single tap. The app remembers your preferred direction between sessions.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
LISTEN TO ANY TRANSLATION
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Every translation can be read aloud. Tap the speaker icon on any result to hear it spoken clearly. English uses natural AI-generated voice for smooth, expressive speech. Haitian
Creole uses on-device voice synthesis so it works even with a poor connection.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
TRANSLATION HISTORY
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Every translation is automatically saved in your local history. Review past conversations, copy the original or translated text, replay the audio, or delete entries you no longer
need. Your last 50 translations are always available — no account or internet connection required to view them.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
POWERED BY GROQ AI
