Everything You Need Abroad, In Your Pocket

How Does Voice Translation Work?
Voice Translation is instant speech-to-speech translation — tap, speak in your language, and hear the translation spoken aloud in theirs.
Tap to record, get instant voice-to-voice translation. Have real conversations with locals, negotiate at markets, or ask for directions - all without language barriers.
What Can Smart Camera Translate?
Smart Camera uses AI to detect and translate menus, signs, and documents from a single photo.
Point your camera at any sign, restaurant menu, or document. WanderVox instantly detects the language, translates the text, and adds helpful context so nothing gets lost.
What Cultural Tips Do You Get?
Cultural Guide delivers local phrases, do's and don'ts, gestures, and food guides for 51 destinations — cached offline so you can access them anywhere.
Learn essential local phrases, etiquette tips, and cultural insights before you arrive. Avoid awkward mistakes and show respect for local customs — cached offline for easy access.
How Does Explore Find Hidden Gems?
Explore uses AI to surface hyper-local recommendations — street food stalls, secret viewpoints, and neighbourhood nightlife that most tourists never discover.
Discover what tourists miss. AI-curated local recommendations surface the best street food, hidden gems, nightlife, art, nature spots, and places to unwind - tailored to where you are.
What Does the Trip Planner Do?
Trip Planner turns your bookings, places, and reminders into one dated itinerary.
Add flights, hotels, restaurants, and activities. WanderVox groups them by date, converts currencies live, and reminds you before each pickup or check-in. Saved places sit alongside your bookings on the same screen.
Does WanderVox Work Offline?
Android users can translate typed text fully offline via on-device ML Kit.
Download a language once and translate text without a signal — perfect for flights, the metro, or coverage dead zones. Voice and camera translation still need a connection.
