BuntuLingo

Speak uBuntu

A live interpreter for African languages. Speak in your own language — BuntuLingo listens, translates directly into the other person's language and says it out loud. No English in between.

How it works

  1. 1
    Choose two languages

    Pick your language and the other person's language at the top and bottom of the screen.

  2. 2
    Press and hold the big round button

    Keep holding while you speak. Let go when you finish your sentence.

  3. 3
    Listen

    BuntuLingo speaks your words out loud in the other person's language. Then they hold their button and reply.

Three ways to use it

Face to face

Put the phone on the table between you. Each person has their own button.

Phone call

Put your call on loudspeaker. BuntuLingo listens and translates both sides — hands free.

Conference

The speaker shares a 5-letter room code. Every listener hears the talk in their own language in their earphones.
