What you get
Made to be understood, not to be fiddled with
It talks out loud, both ways
Press the button and say it in English. It says your words out loud in their language. When they answer, it says their words back to you in yours. A real back-and-forth at the counter, at the table, in the taxi.
One button. No typing.
There is one button to translate. No menus to open, nothing to type, no screen to squint at in the sun. Press it, talk, let go.
Its own speaker and microphone
A 2-watt speaker you can hear across a table, and a microphone that picks up a normal voice from a few feet away. Nothing to hold up to anyone’s ear. For a quieter conversation, turn it down with the side buttons.
Your phone stays in your pocket
Set it up once in the free app on your phone (iPhone or Android), then it’s one button. From then on the translator does the talking, and nobody has to take your phone out of your hands.

Questions
Before you order
Why not just use the free app on my phone?
You can. But a phone app makes you type, hold a screen up and pass your phone back and forth with a stranger.
With the translator you press one button and talk. It speaks out loud, both ways, and nobody takes your phone out of your hands.
What do I need to use it?
Set it up once in the free app on your phone (iPhone or Android), then it’s one button. It works wherever your phone works.
How many languages does it speak?
165 languages, both ways, including Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Russian. You choose your two in the app and can switch the pair any time.
Not sure about yours? Email support@ecdf-usa.com before you order and we will check for you.
Is there a subscription?
No. You buy the translator once. There is no subscription and no monthly fee.
How accurate is it?
Very good for everyday travel: directions, prices, menus, small talk, family dinners. Speak in short, clear sentences and it does the rest.
The honest limit: heavy slang, very fast speech and technical terms are hard for any translator. For medical, legal or official matters, use a professional interpreter.
How long does the battery last?
A full day of travel on one charge. It recharges by USB-C from any phone charger or power bank, so it is ready again the next morning.
Is ECDF a real company? What if it doesn’t work for me?
Yes. ECDF sells from ecdf-usa.com, every order ships with a tracking number, and a real person answers support@ecdf-usa.com within 24 to 48 business hours. 9,700+ orders since July.
If the translator is not for you, email us within 30 days of delivery with your order number and send it back. The refund goes to your original payment method.

Review
“My dad can have his independence back”
My dad has had a really hard time learning English, so going somewhere by himself is difficult. When I found this little translator I thought it could be a lifesaver for him: you don’t even take your phone out of your pocket, it translates what he says and translates back whatever they answer. Instead of relying on someone else to translate, he can have his independence back.

“13 years selling cars, and all the Spanish customers I missed”
Thirteen years selling cars, and all the Spanish-speaking customers I’ve missed because I didn’t have this. Real-time translation for over 165 languages, and all I need is Spanish. I’m going to be unstoppable. I’m adding it to my cart right now.

“It saved my life when I arrived in the US”
You speak Spanish and it translates to English, and the other way around. It’s like having a private teacher available 24 hours a day, with no subscription. It keeps your translation history on your phone and you can repeat a word as many times as you want. I just arrived in the United States and this has saved my life. I highly recommend it.

Review
“Totally worth it”
‘Speak Spanish, please’ was the only sentence I knew in English. If you’re thinking about buying this translator, it’s totally worth it: no subscription, 165 languages. You download the app, scan the QR code and that’s all it takes to set it up. If you don’t speak English, that’s no longer a problem.

“It translates both ways in real time”
‘Hello my friend, how are you? Can you help me, please?’ It says it in Spanish, then my Spanish comes back in English. This is the translator that translates in real time, Spanish to English and English to Spanish.

“It speaks both ways, out loud”
‘My name is Melissa.’ It said it back in Spanish. Then I spoke in Spanish and it came back in English, out loud, with the translator just hanging on my chest. Do you love this translator? I’ll leave it here for you.
