Walt Translator App

Say goodbye to language barriers. With real-time translation built right into your Walt, two people can have a natural conversation in different languages using just one device. No extra radios or logins—just simple, seamless communication wherever work takes you! 

Where the Translator App can help:

• Guard shacks and front desks for checking in guests 
• Delivery and warehouse drivers during loading and unloading
• HR teams during interviews

To get started, open your Walt menu by clicking the back button or selecting the three-line menu icon in the lower-left corner of your screen. Once the menu is open, locate and select the Translator tile to continue.

Select the two languages you want to use for your translation. Language 1 is automatically set to your Walt’s current language. To choose Language 2, scroll through the list of supported languages until you find the language you need, then select it.

Pro Tip! Some languages are available in multiple regional dialects. Make sure you select the correct dialect for your audience or translation needs, as choosing the appropriate option can help ensure the translation is as accurate and natural as possible.

Once both languages are selected, click Start. 

Press and hold the PTT (Push-to-Talk) button, then speak in Language 1. Release the PTT button when you're finished speaking. Your message will automatically translate and play back out loud.

Tap the Switch button at the bottom of the screen to swap to Language 2.

Hand the Walt device to the other person so they can use it. Once they have it, they can press the PTT button and speak in Language 2. Their message will then be translated automatically and played back in the same way, allowing you both to continue the conversation smoothly.

When you're done with your conversation, select the Exit button at the bottom of your screen. 

Note: When you’re using the Translator App, radio scanning will be turned off. Don’t worry, you’ll still receive messages from high-priority channels and Mass Alerts, as well as pages if teammates are trying to reach you. 

With Translator, language differences no longer have to slow down communication on the job. Whether you're coordinating with a new team member, working with a subcontractor, or communicating with visitors on-site, your Walt makes it easy to have a real conversation. No extra devices, no delays, just clear communication in real time.
