Running a session comes down to two buttons: Start and Stop.

  1. 1Press Start listening.
  2. 2The first time, your browser asks for the microphone — click Allow.
  3. 3Speak naturally. Translation begins streaming right away.
  4. 4When the message is over, press Stop.

Tip

Brief Wi-Fi blips are fine

The session auto-reconnects across short network hiccups and keeps the same entry — you won't lose your place.

Important

Stop draws the line on credits

Credits only draw while a session is live. Always press Stop when you finish so you're not billed for silence afterward.
