Classroom transcription & translation

Follow a foreign-language class with live captions on iPhone

Use Caplo's microphone input to turn your teacher's speech into live text. Enable translation when you want captions in another language.

Ask your teacher for permission before capturing classroom speech.

Three steps before class

  1. Choose the microphone

    For speech in the classroom, use microphone input—not system audio.

  2. Set the languages

    Select the language your teacher speaks, and enable translation if needed.

  3. Try a short sample

    Start listening and check that text appears. Adjust the phone's position so speech is clear.

Revisit the text after class. How to save and export

Two things to know

  • Distance affects recognition

    Noise, distance and specialist terms can reduce accuracy. Check important details yourself.

  • Text without translation works too

    Leave translation off to follow the original words. Check language, device and usage requirements in the app.
