Speak & Translate
Speak & Translate is a language translation utility for macOS that combines speech-to-text and translation capabilities. Users can speak into the microphone to have their words transcribed and then translated into another language, with optional text-to-speech output in the target language. The app is designed for language learners, travellers, and people who need quick translations of spoken phrases across various language pairs.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about Speak & Translate in our search results, including whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. The app may still be actively maintained, discontinued, or updated infrequently — there is no clear signal either way. With the deadline of September 2028 now approximately 27 months away, if you rely on this app regularly, contact the developer directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon (arm64) build is planned. If the developer confirms they have no intention to ship a native build, you should begin exploring alternatives now — the Intel-only version will stop launching on macOS 28 and Rosetta 2 will no longer be available to run it. Modern alternatives like Google Translate (web or iOS app via Mac via Apple's Sidecar feature), DeepL, or Microsoft Translator offer native Mac support and comparable translation quality, though they may not include offline speech recognition if that is important to your workflow.
