Translate Messenger Calls in Real Time
Talk to family and friends on Facebook Messenger when you do not share a language. Whisperr translates the call live on your phone or in your web browser.
- 1
Pick the languages
Choose the language being spoken and the one you want to read.
- 2
Press Record and speak
Say a sentence or two, the way you would on a Messenger call.
- 3
Read the translation live
Text appears as the words are spoken. The steps below show how to do this on a real call.
When the tab picker opens, tick Share tab audio — without it there is no sound to translate.
Translate a Messenger call on your phone
Use the Whisperr app on iPhone or Android, on the same phone as your call.
- 1
Start your Messenger call on speaker
Open the chat in the Messenger app and start an audio or video call. Then turn on the speaker. No phone app can capture a call on the same phone, so Whisperr listens through the microphone.
- 2
Turn Echo Cancellation off
In Whisperr, open Settings and find it under Transcription Settings. With it off, Whisperr can hear the voice coming from your phone’s speaker.
- 3
Press Record and read
Choose your two languages, press Record and read the translation as the other person talks. A quiet room gives better results.
Translate a Messenger call in your web browser
The Messenger desktop apps for Mac and Windows are no longer available, so on a computer Messenger runs in your browser.
- 1
Start the call in a Chrome tab
Open messenger.com in Chrome, click the person or group, then click Audio call or Video call at the top right.
- 2
Open the Whisperr Web App in another tab
Go to whisperr.co/app in the same browser and choose your languages. Chrome and Edge can capture a tab’s audio.
- 3
Capture the call’s tab
Press Record, choose Screen Capture, pick the Messenger tab and tick Share tab audio. It must be a tab, not a window or your whole screen.
- 4
Keep the translation on top
Click Floating subtitles and the translation stays above the call while you talk.
Where it fits
Messenger calls people need translated
Pick the setup that matches how you call.
Relatives overseas

Run the call in a browser tab, capture it with the Web App and keep the translation floating above it.
Marketplace and community calls

- 1
Open Whisperr
Use the web app in your browser, or the iPhone, Android, Mac or Windows app.
- 2
Pick your languages and audio
Choose the language being spoken and the one to translate into, then use your microphone — or the audio playing on your computer.
- 3
Just listen, or just speak
Translations appear as people talk. To share them, send the room link or show the QR code.
Whisperr is available everywhere
Use it in your browser, or download the app for your phone or computer.
Privacy first
Whisperr translates your conversations without keeping them.
Audio is never stored
Your audio is processed in real time to produce the transcript and translation, then discarded.
Nothing saved unless you choose
Transcripts and translations are not stored on our servers unless you turn on Save to Cloud.
Never used to train AI
Your audio, transcripts and translations are never used to train AI models, and our service providers can't use them either.
Encrypted in transit
Everything between your device and Whisperr is encrypted with TLS 1.2 or higher.

What users say
Whisperr review
“I love how easy Whisperr is to use and how it accurately understands and translates text and speech across different languages. It's so effective that even in scenarios where other tools might fail, Whisperr performs perfectly. Additionally, the ability to select languages for translation directly on a phone is fantastic. This feature helps us translate church services, ensuring everyone understands without missing anything important. The initial setup was straightforward, making it smooth to start using immediately.”
Fast Translations and a Clear, Easy-to-Read Layout
“It translated really fast, and the way the text appears on the screen—with its clear layout—is very easy to read.”
Whisperr Delivers Lightning-Fast, Highly Accurate Real-Time Translation
“The translation is extremely fast and accurate; after comparing several programs, I consider Whisperr to be the fastest and most accurate real-time translation app.”
Top-Notch Speech Recognition and Flashcard-Style Translations for Fast Study
“Whisperr's speech recognition and translation quality are both top-notch, and better than similar tools I've tried so far. Beyond that, as a Japanese learner, I especially like how Whisperr displays each sentence and its translation almost like flashcards, with a text-to-speech button for each one. That setup makes studying feel fast and efficient, and it's easy to review sentence by sentence.”
Simple Real-Time Translation for Work
“I like best about Whisperr is that it feels simple and straightforward to use.”
Awesome
“This is very useful, extremely user-friendly, easy to use, and the recognition capability is very precise, with very fast speed. It should be the most accurate and fastest translation I've used so far.”
