Now includes speech to text! Speak your message instead of typing. Speech to text will use the language you have set as your language in the options.

Language Training! Use Rosetta-stone like functionality for any phrases saved in your library! To use just press and hold the phrase and press 'Practice'. Practice until you sound like a native!

Use Bing or Google for translation.
Over 40 languages supported for translating to and from.

If you have received a large SMS message and are having trouble translating it using the Google Service, try using Bing or the Google Beta service. Bing is probably the best choice as an alternative as the Google Beta is limited on the amount of requests perday


Conversation thread to easily keep track of the messages from within the application.

The app only uses the existing SMS database unlike other apps so there is no separate copies of the messages floating around eating up your disk space.
