Most chat translator apps make you copy text in and out. ParlApp is a messenger with the translator built in, so every text and voice message is translated the moment it arrives.
A separate translator app is fine for a sign or a menu. For a real conversation it gets old fast. Every message means switching apps twice, and the person on the other side waits while you do it.
ParlApp turns that around. The translator sits inside the chat, so messages arrive already translated and you reply in your own language.
You write in English. Kenji writes in Japanese. Texts and voice messages both come through in your language.
ParlApp works as a text message translator for the people you chat with in ParlApp. You write normally, they read your message in their language. Their replies show up in yours. Tap Show original whenever you want to see the exact words they used.
Voice notes are the hardest thing to translate yourself. ParlApp transcribes each voice message, translates it, and plays it back in the listener's language with a natural-sounding voice. The original audio stays in the chat too, so you can still hear their real voice.
Word-for-word tools trip over slang, abbreviations and names. ParlApp's AI reads the whole conversation, so it knows that "tmrw" means tomorrow, that Rosa is a person, and that a joke should still sound like a joke.
Messages are translated as soon as they're sent. It's a messenger, not a live interpreter, so it's made for texting back and forth rather than for translating a face-to-face conversation out loud.

Pick your language for that chat and send a text or a voice message. They get it in their language, and their replies come back in yours.
