Big text. Big buttons.
*Download your language packs first. On Android, offline speech depends on your phone’s on-device recognition support; its system speech service may process audio otherwise.

Teal for you, coral for them. Tap to start and stop, or press and hold.
Read the translation in large text and hear it spoken to the other person.
For the everyday moments
A split screen gives each person a half in their own language and colour. Flip their half across the table, or use “show to the other person” for a full-screen phrase.

For face-to-face conversations with one person wearing AirPods or any Bluetooth headset. Hear their translation privately in your ear; the phone speaker plays your translated words to them. The phone mic captures both voices, using the selected sides or automatic language detection to identify the speaker.

Point the camera at a menu, sign or label, or choose a photo from your library. See translated text over each detected block; tap a block to hear it.

An English ↔ Russian phrasebook with 12 travel and emergency categories. Keep favourites and revisit your conversation history, all on your phone.

Choose English or Russian menus and your text size during setup. Large text, targets of at least 48 pt and slower speech at the largest sizes make every turn easier.

Speech recognition, translation, text recognition and voices run on your phone. Download language packs once, then use airplane mode. Android speech support varies by phone.

Private by design
Your voice, typed text and photos are processed on your device. Tilia never sends them to us. iPhone speech stays on the device; on Android, the system speech service may process audio if on-device recognition is unavailable.
No account, no login, no analytics SDK or crash reporting. Free Tilia has ads on Phrasebook, History and Settings, never during a conversation. Google may process advertising identifiers and ad interactions. Premium has no ads.

A few things to know
Yes, after you download the language packs and required voices. Speech recognition, translation and text recognition run on the phone. On Android, offline speech requires on-device recognition support; the system speech service may process audio on phones without it.
iPhone uses Apple Translation’s offline languages, about 20. Android uses the ML Kit set, about 59. Speech and voices also depend on your phone and installed packs. The app menus are in English and Russian; phrasebook content is English ↔ Russian.
Tilia does not upload your voice, typed text or photos to us or our servers. iOS forces on-device speech recognition. On Android without on-device recognition, the phone’s system speech service may process audio.
10 conversation translations, 3 headphone conversations and 3 camera scans each day; the last 10 history entries, with starred entries always kept; and 3 phrasebook categories. Ads appear only on Phrasebook, History and Settings, never during a conversation.
Manage or cancel in your Apple App Store or Google Play account. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. Deleting Tilia does not cancel a subscription. See Support for links to both stores.
Tilia is coming to iPhone with iOS 18 or later, and Android phones with Android 8 or later. It is not in the stores yet.
Translation, speech recognition and text recognition are automatic and may be wrong. Check important details. Do not rely on Tilia for medical, legal or emergency decisions without a qualified interpreter.
Yes. Each person has a half of the screen, in their own language and colour. Tap your half, speak, and Tilia reads the translation aloud. You can also flip the other half or show a phrase full screen.
A small app. A shared moment.
For the next trip, the next visit, the next person you meet.
