Common questions
Quick answers about what Translate Chat does, which chat apps work best, whether you need an account, and how privacy is handled.
- What does Translate Chat do?
- You upload chat screenshots (Messenger, WhatsApp, LINE, Instagram, Telegram, iMessage, and similar apps). We read the conversation layout with AI vision and OCR hints, then produce a clean English chat-style image you can save or share.
- Which chat apps work best?
- The pipeline is tuned for common layouts: Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, LINE, Instagram-style threads, Telegram, and iMessage-style bubbles. See the translation guides for app-specific tips.
- Do I need an account to try it?
- You can start with a limited free run without signing in. Create an account when you want more usage, subscriptions, or one-time paid runs.
- Where can I read about privacy and data handling?
- See the Privacy page (/privacy) for how screenshots, accounts, and payments are handled. We do not use your screenshots to train public models.
- Which image formats can I upload?
- PNG, JPEG, WebP, and BMP. Upload screenshots in conversation order. Higher-resolution exports usually improve small-text recognition.
- How does billing work?
- Payments are processed by Paddle (merchant of record). Free-tier runs may be available without an account; paid plans and one-time runs add usage. See Terms (/terms) for acceptable use and checkout details.
